MYOB Capture - Rotating a document , Tray Tax Invoices

Hi 

I use the MYOB Capture to scan Creditors tax invoices into the MYOB Tray via an ipad.  I have several tax invoices that are in landscape. 

 

Can anyone please tell me if there is a way to rotate a document in MYOB Capture so when the tax invoice is uploaded to the tray it isn't in portrait view.  I can however rotate the documents under photos but I am unable to send them straight to the purchase Tray under the app.

 

Also I want to know if you can refer back to tax invoices after you have rolled an EOFY. These tax invoices I am refering to are the ones that have sent to your tray, allocate them to a purchase under a creditor.  When I spoke to MYOB about six months ago I was advised that the tax invoices would not be available to view after you have rolled.

 

When I started using the tray I would backup every single tax invoice to a external hard drive and still do.  I find going paperless is more work.  Also in the Tray you cannot print a copy of the tax invoice unless you have saved it to an external hard drive.  Can anyone tell me if the tax invoices in your tray can be review at a later date or do we have to also back them up or have paper copies filed.  Can anyone please shed some light on this.

Many thanks

    MYOB Capture will upload the image that has been taken of the document as is. For example, if the image of the document was taken in landscape then the image will be uploaded as a landscape-based image. The Capture app doesn't have a provision to rotate documents. If you are needing to rotate or change the document you could look at doing that through the device's photos app and then emailing that through to your In Tray's email address for upload.

     

    Documents that are uploaded and linked to a transaction are available forever. The system will not remove the attached document if you do close your financial year.

     

    Printing directly from the In Tray is something that we are actively looking into. In the meantime, saving the document and then printing that saved document is the recommendation if you do require a printed copy of the document.

      Hi Steven

      I apology for the late reply. Using Capture makes uploading documents easier. Myob not removing creditors invoices when you roll a new financial gives me a piece of mine. 
      Thank you for your reply.

    Hi Chelle_001 

     

    Steven's hit the nail on the head with what's capable, though I only have 2 things to add on here:

     

    1. There is now a way to upload images directly from the Photo Gallery to your In Tray via the App without having to email it to your In Tray address. When you're on the screen to Capture an image, there is a Photo's button in the bottom-right you can tap on to access it. When you're done with the rotation feel free to return to Capture to upload it.

     

    2. On the topic of Photo Rotation, we do look at the MYOB Capture Ideas Hub and there is a request for this that you might like to Upvote and watch, here's a link: Rotate Receipt

     

    Feel free to check out the rest of the Ideas on the Hub and submit any suggestions you might have if you don't see them there.
