Due to a recently released change to MYOB's authentication token format early this August, all existing tokens were rendered non-functional.

This impacted all our existing MYOB users who were unable to access their MYOB data.

Accounting Addons has released a new updated version of ODBCLink to fix the issue.

ODBCLink Files Quarantined by Antivirus software

ODBCLink software consists of multiple files created in Visual Basic Script, which are sometimes quarantined or deleted by antivirus softwares.
If your antivirus software quarantines important files, please contact your IT team to whitelist the installation folder (typically C:/ODBCLink ) and C:/ODBCLink if the installation folder is different.
