To add a new account
Accounts Easy Setup Assistant > Set up the Accounts List to meet your business needs > To add a new account
  1. Click the New button. The Edit Accounts window appears. You'll use this window to create the new account.
  2. Click the appropriate button to indicate whether the new account will be a Header Account or a Detail Account.
  3. Choose the account type you want.

If you're unsure about which account type you should assign to a new account, you should probably consult your accountant, or an MYOB Certified Consultant. (See the list of Certified Consultants that you received with your MYOB Accounting Plus package to find one in your area. You can also refer to the MYOB UK Website ( http://www.myob.co.uk ) for a regularly updated version of that list.)

  1. Assign an account number to the account.
  1. Give the account a descriptive name, one that you'll easily recognise in the future. You can use up to 30 characters for the name.
  2. You'll enter the opening balances for all your accounts in a later step. You can skip the remaining fields in this window. Click OK when you're satisfied with the entries you've made.
