2.Greater speed of input
Manual accounting systems can be painfully slow. MYOB automates many manual accounting processes that waste valuable time and money.Oftentimes, manual accounting systems require multiple entries of the same information. MYOB syncs information and reduces time-consuming processes by automating credit notes, purchase orders, payroll and more.
3.Greater accuracy
Accurate data is essential for effective financial management. Organisations relying on manual accounting systems are burdened by the possibility of human error and the likelihood of working off outdated information
4.Reduced costs
Hardware, operating systems and accounting fees can quickly exhaust a solid budget. MYOB’s cloud offering reduces financial and operational expenditure.When organisations use MYOB’s cloud offering, instead of needing upfront capital, organisations pay a monthly fee. This eliminates the ongoing costs of maintenance, updates, and backups. Additionally, server failures, hardware upgrades and other technical issues are no longer the company’s problem.
