Hi Jewels If you are not already a Partner with MYOB, as Bookkeeper or Certified Consultant, the I would suggest that you become one. As a Bookkeeping Partner, the cost is not onerous & I am fairly certain that you get access to the latest releases as they are released. You also get priority phone support amongst other benefits. Certified Consultant is more expensive but still not onerous if you are running a business.
