Hi HybridCB
You are quite correct, AccountRight in Australia does have a Payroll module built directly into the application for AccountRight Plus and Premier versions. The New Zealand Payroll (Desktop) product is built on older technology and is not something that is available for direct incorporation into AccountRight, rather we do rely on those integration methods mentioned in my previous post on this thread.
Personally, I don't foresee the MYOB Payroll module being directly incorporated into the AccountRight application for New Zealand in the distant future - while it has been floated around in the past it's certainly not something that I have heard about being in the pipeline. As indicated, we are more focusing on bolstering up the MYOB Essentials Payroll and MYOB Essentials + Payroll offerings.
