Report: On banking transactions by contacts
I have come from using a different version of MYOB where you could view transactions by supplier or customer no matter which way you entered them in. I was really shocked to find out that you can't do this with Live Accounts. As I enter the majority of my sales in via "Banking, receive money" I cannot use the "Sales By Customer" Report as this will only bring up transactions that you have entered via "Invoices, Create Invoice". It would be so beneficial to be able to be able to use this report for the sales that you have entered in via "Banking, Receive Money" as well. Also the same for when you enter expenses via "Banking, spend money". You cannot use the "Expenses By Supplier" Report as it only brings up transactions that you have entered via "Expenses, Enter expense". When you have alot of expenses and sales to enter in, it is too time consuming to enter them all in via the methods above that will allow you to run a report on them.

Bank transactions: Split payments for negative values
Our main source of income is PayPal. We earn money through an online service, and withdraw from PayPal to our bank account once a week. However, since PayPal takes their fees as the money is paid from the customer, the amount we see in our bank account is only half of the story. It represents the total income, less the paypal fees. Here's an example: Say we receive $1000 into our account.I need to be able to split the transaction like this: 110% = $1100 = Revenue -10% = -$100 = PayPal Fees Currently, the transaction splitting system doesn't allow for this and we have to use journalling.

Can there be the ability to create new accounts while inside a spend/receive money or general journal transaction? This request was made by usename 71burger in Nov 2011. Status 'to be fixed soon'. http://community.myob.com/t5/LiveAccounts-Idea-Exchange/Live-Accounts-Suggestions/idi-p/75481 "Add new accounts within transaction'
Setup: BAS Preparation
Hi there At the moment MyobLive doesn't seem to have much automated functionalityfor BAS. Given that the system already calcuates the BAS it seems really odd that the user has to manually create a spend journal or a reversal to allocate GST Paid, Collected, PAYG instalment etc, and also fill in the ATO forms. Surely this could all be automated, afterall it's the most confusing thing for small business and the one where MYOB already does much of the heavy lifting (in my case, the main reason for using the package in the first place).

Receive money: Selection of account based on name or number
I have had numberous bookkeepers and business owners (used to being able to choose or enter an account code) complain that can be extremely slow if the expenditure being allocated is not in the usual expense code's first drop down list. You have to scroll down click more then scroll down further. This can be very time consuming if doing more than a couple of allocations If you knew the account code...or a word from the account name...you should be able to enter these and narrow down the drop-down list or even better get the actual account to enter. "choosing an account via drop downlist is extremely time consuming can we have it prefill from account code or name?"
Bank transactions: Transfer - Auto-populate manually create transfer transaction
If I transfer money from one account to another and it comes up in a bank feed, When I press the option to allocate it to a transfer between accounts, and then manually create an entry, i wish the amount would be pre-entered into the form. I always have to go back, look at the amount, write it down and then go to manually enter the transfer again. Massive pain. "Record a transfer between accounts"
