- Click the Create A New MYOB Accounting Plus Company File button. The first step in the MYOB Accounting Plus New Company File Assistant appears.
- Follow the steps that appear on your computer screen. If you need additional information about the answers you'll enter during the New Company File Assistant, be sure to click the Help button at the bottom of each window in the Assistant.
- When you've completed all the steps in the New Company File Assistant, your new company file will be created, and you'll be ready to set up your company's records in the company file.
