About This Session
This session was part of our Unlock the Power of Your MYOB Acumatica webinar series, which focuses on practical ways to get more value from your MYOB Acumatica system.
Rather than covering theory, this webinar focused on what MYOB Acumatica users need to do right now. Our consultants walked through the compliance changes, the system configuration steps, and the internal process updates that every Australian employer using MYOB Acumatica Payroll needs to complete before 1 July 2026.
The session covered the full end-to-end Payday Super workflow inside MYOB Acumatica, including a live system demonstration.
