Activate the company file
NOTE: Do you need to complete this task? You don’t need to activate a company file that you have created online, have created for testing purposes or any file you are no longer entering transactions into.
Activation is a process that verifies you have a legal installation of AccountRight. You need to activate company files which are not stored online. You also need to activate a company file before you can load it online. After creating a company file, you can use it for 30 days in trial mode, after which you must activate the file if you want to continue entering transactions into it. If you don’t activate the file within 30 days, it will become read‐only, which means you can open, view, print and export information, but you will not be able to enter new information into the file until you activate it. You can activate your company file online or over the phone. After activating a file, you must confirm the company file once or twice a year, that is, extend its activation throughout its working life.
NOTE: Automatic confirmation If you want, you can set a preference to automatically confirm an activated company file over the internet when required.
Activation limits The number of company files you can activate depends on your software licence. If you need to activate more company files than your licence permits (for example, yours is a bookkeeping business looking after many clients), you’ll need to obtain licence extensions to activate additional company files. Contact MYOB Customer Service about obtaining licence extensions.
Before you begin
Before you can activate a company file, you need to:- know your product serial number. If you didn’t enter your serial number when creating the company file, you will need to enter it during the activation process. You can find your serial number on the software CD sleeve or on a confirmation email from MYOB if you downloaded your product.
- register your software. Registration enables MYOB to contact you should there be any issues with your software. See the Getting Started guide for information on how to register your software.
