Process
Invoices and Payments for MYOB Connect
Synergy has developed an automatic integration between Synergy and MYOB - Synergy Connect.
This allows invoices to be added to MYOB with the click of a button and
invoice payments made in MYOB will travel back to Synergy.
Tips:
- Please contact Synergy before
upgrading to a version of MYOB that does not appear in the list of available
supported versions.
- An error log is generated by MYOB which can be found in the location
of the MYOB datafile.
- Can't see this feature? An updated license is required. Please contact Synergy support on support@totalsynergy.com.au
Run
Synergy Connect
Always backup MYOB before running a sync
Complete the following steps:
- Click
the run button
to create the sync.
- The
sync will now start processing, jobs > cards > invoices > payments > credits. Once this is complete a result
will be displayed in the Connect window.
- Click the + against the
results indicator to see which transactions were sync'd between the 2
systems and if there were rejections:
|
A green tick indicates all records transferred successfully between
Synergy and MYOB
|
|
A red tick indicates some records were successfully transferred and
some were not
|
|
A red cross indicates no records were transferred
|
|
A warning indicates a record has been skipped. This could be because
the invoice or payment already exists in MYOB
|
|
A red circle indicates no connection was made between Synergy and MYOB.
An error will pop up to detail why nothing has occurred. Most commonly
it's because MYOB has been upgrade and the MYOB data file has either been
renamed or moved or the MYOB ODBC is not functioning
|
Cancelled or Credit Invoices
If an Invoice has been cancelled or credited in Synergy
a record will also be created in MYOB. The cancelled or adjusted
invoice record will appear on the account as a credit transaction, negating
the original Tax Invoice transaction.
To
apply: within MYOB go to Sales Register > Settle Debits/Credits > select the credit and Apply to Sale
Zero
dollar($0) credit notes
NEW 4.7.4
Zero dollar ($0) credit notes will not
be transferred in the sync process. If a zero dollar ($0) credit note
exists it will be excluded from the data sent in the sync process, and
will be shown as a warning message in the connect sync report.
Tip: If you require the information from the zero dollar credit note in MYOB AccountRight, the data will need to be
manually entered into MYOB AccountRight.
Invoice Adjustments
Bad Debts in Synergy will appear in MYOB as an Adjustment.
Changing the status of an invoice to Paid, when no payment was received
indicates a bad Debt, therefore writing off the balance of the invoices,
without adjusting the original invoice value. You can open the Sale
in MYOB and modify the account code as necessary for Bad Debt write offs.
To
apply : within MYOB go to Sales Register > Settle Debits/Credits > select the credit and Apply to Sale
Reset the datafile
Each time sync is created with MYOB Connect a flag
is allocated against the invoice, credit and payment. This is stored
in the database so next time the sync is executed, we know not to send
it over again. If the datafile is reset, this flag is removed.
The next sync that is generated will detect that the invoices, credit
and payment records need to be exported.
Please note that it is highly recommended
you reset the Start from date so these
records are not re-exported.
Payments
Sync to MYOB
It's very important to note that if a payment is entered
in Synergy and sent to MYOB, that if a change is made in Synergy i.e. it
is deleted, we are unable to make the change in MYOB. You
will need to do this manually. Though if the payment
is deleted from MYOB, the payment will then be deleted from Synergy as
well. The new payment as entered in MYOB will also
be sent across to Synergy.
Reverse
a credit
If a credit has been created in error, this action can be undone. This
will also affect the information going across to MYOB. Please
follow these steps to apply the credit reversal correctly.
Undo the credit in Synergy:
- Go
to the Invoices tab within a project.
- Highlight
the invoice number that was credited and select the Credit summary button
.
- Double
click the Credit.
- Select
Action.
- Undo
Credit.
- Run
the sync to MYOB.
The credit reversal can be found within MYOB under Open Invoices - it
will not appear under returns and credits.
To cancel out the credit and the credit reversal:
- If
you've not yet applied the credit to the original invoice in MYOB it will
be available under the Returns and Credits.
- Highlight
and select Apply to Sale.
- Apply
the credit to the credit reversal that appears in the list with the same
amount, which is the result of you Undoing the credit.
Undo a completed Sync
If you need to Undo a previous Sync follow the steps below.
- Select the Completed Sync for the correct Datafile from
the list.
- In the MYOB AccountRight
Connect toolbar click on the Undo icon.

- Click Yes to the warning message shown.
- The Undo will now be complete and a row is added showing
the Undo icon within the results list at today's date and time.
