Warning: Be very careful with linked accounts!

Your fiscal records rely greatly upon the balances of your linked accounts, since those accounts track the majority of your business activity. In most cases, the linked accounts that were set up for you when you created your company file will serve the needs of your business. Change your linked accounts only if you're certain that the change is appropriate.

If you're not sure whether you should change your linked accounts, we suggest you consult your accountant or a consultant. For information about the MYOB Certified Consultant program see www.myob.com/us/service/consultants.

  1. Choose Linked Accounts from the Setup menu, then choose the appropriate category (Accounts, Sales, Purchases, Payroll) to which the transaction type belongs. The Linked Accounts window for that category will appear.
  2. Locate the transaction type in the window, and then enter the account in the field next to the transaction type.
  3. Click OK.
