MYOB launches Assist app for New Zealand small businesses. Mon, 19th Oct 2026 (Today) MYOB has launched its MYOB Assist mobile app for small and medium-sized businesses in New Zealand, replacing its separate MYOB Capture and MYOB Invoice mobile products. Available to eligible users of MYOB Business and MYOB AccountRight at no extra cost, the app combines receipt capture, quoting and invoicing in a single mobile product. Users can create, edit and send quotes and invoices from a phone. Accepted quotes can be converted into invoices, and payment status is updated in MYOB in near real time. The new app brings together functions that were previously spread across more than one product. It is intended to help business owners manage routine administration while away from the office, including sending invoice reminders and keeping records current. An artificial intelligence-based receipt capture tool is also included. It reads receipts and pre-fills transaction details for users to review, reducing manual data entry. The New Zealand launch follows an earlier rollout in Australia, where customer use of the app has been rising. MYOB pointed to growth in invoice sends and receipt uploads as signs customers were using the app for routine mobile tasks. Dean Chadwick, Chief Customer Officer at MYOB, said the company had seen increasing use of the app since its Australian launch. "Since launching in Australia, we've seen growing use of MYOB Assist for key mobile workflows, with invoice sends and receipt uploads both increasing quarter on quarter. These are encouraging signs that customers are using Assist to keep everyday tasks moving from anywhere, with everything they need to manage day-to-day admin in one place." MYOB linked the New Zealand launch to pressure on small business owners dealing with compliance and tax administration. It cited findings from its 2026 New Zealand Business Monitor, which found that more than half of SME operators surveyed expected the time spent meeting compliance and tax obligations to be a pressure point for their business this year. Referring to those findings, Chadwick said, "Those behind the businesses that make up the engine room of New Zealand's economy are often juggling an endless amount of admin and compliance tasks, all while striving to improve and grow their businesses. In our 2026 New Zealand Business Monitor, more than half of SME operators polled said that the time spent on meeting their business compliance and tax obligations would be a pressure point for their business this year." He added that combining several common tasks in one app could help owners deal with administration as it arises rather than leaving it until later. "By empowering business owners to manage some of these tasks as they come up and offering this capability in one unified app, we're reducing the volume of admin left for later, helping to boost cashflow and giving them more time to focus on running the business." Team access MYOB Assist also includes app-only access settings for team members. This allows staff to capture receipts, prepare quotes and issue invoices through the mobile app without access to the full MYOB Business or AccountRight file. The arrangement is intended for businesses with employees working on site or away from the office. Each team member uses an individual sign-in, while owners can limit access to broader financial information such as banking, cashflow and reporting data. Explaining that feature, Chadwick said, "For businesses with employees working on site or away from the office, each person has their own sign-in and can complete these simple tasks in MYOB Assist without access to the wider MYOB Business or AccountRight file." He said those access controls were intended to keep more sensitive information restricted to finance staff or business owners. "This means business owners can keep banking, cashflow and reporting information with the people who manage the books, while keeping smaller admin actions moving amongst their team." The launch also marks the phase-out of MYOB Capture and MYOB Invoice. Existing users of those apps can continue using them until 23 November, after which they will need to move to MYOB Assist to keep managing receipts and invoices from a mobile device. Customers can use the app on compatible iOS and Android devices by signing in with their MYOB account details and completing multi-factor authentication.

Printlogic at The Print Show 2026: print management software and print MIS. Printlogic will showcase its print management software and print MIS at The Print Show 2026, taking place at NEC Birmingham from 29 September to 1 October. Visit Stand P215, Hall 1, to see how Printlogic helps commercial printers, print shops and print brokers manage estimating, quoting, production, purchasing, invoicing and more in one connected system. Printlogic will be exhibiting at The Print Show 2026 at the NEC Birmingham from 29 September to 1 October 2026. Visitors can meet the Printlogic team at Stand P215, Hall 1, to see its print management software and print MIS in action. What is Printlogic? Printlogic covers the workflow from estimating and quoting through to order management, production, purchasing and invoicing. It also includes CRM, inventory, reporting and production scheduling, giving print businesses a centralised system for managing customer, job and operational information. The platform can also integrate with existing accounting and shipping tools, including Xero, Sage, QuickBooks, MYOB, FedEx, UPS, DHL, DPD and ShipStation. This means Printlogic can be used not only as print estimating software, but as a wider print management system for managing the complete lifecycle of a print job. Print management software helps print businesses organise and manage the different processes involved in taking a job from an initial customer enquiry through to completion and invoicing. For a typical print business, this can include creating estimates, preparing quotations, converting accepted quotes into orders, scheduling production, managing purchasing and materials, tracking jobs, raising invoices and reviewing business reports. A print MIS brings many of these processes together, allowing information to move through the workflow instead of being managed separately across spreadsheets, documents or disconnected software. Printlogic is built around this connected approach to print business management. Estimating and quoting are central to the operation of many print businesses. Printlogic includes print estimating software that allows businesses to create estimates and quotations as part of the wider print management workflow. Once a quotation is accepted, the job can progress into order management and production. This creates a connection between the original estimate and the subsequent stages of the print job. For print businesses handling a high volume of quotations, connecting estimating with the rest of the workflow can help teams maintain access to relevant customer and job information as work moves through the business. A print MIS is not limited to quoting. It can also connect the operational processes that take place after a customer places an order. Printlogic includes production scheduling, purchasing, inventory management, job management and reporting, allowing businesses to manage different stages of their workflow within the same print management system. The aim is to give teams better visibility of what is happening across the business, from outstanding quotations and active jobs to purchasing, production and invoicing. Print businesses often rely on several systems to manage accounting, shipping and other parts of their operation. Printlogic supports integrations with platforms including Xero, Sage, QuickBooks and MYOB, as well as shipping services such as FedEx, UPS, DHL, DPD and ShipStation. These integrations allow print management software to work alongside other systems already used by a business, rather than requiring every business process to operate independently. Who is Printlogic for? Printlogic is designed for businesses involved in commercial printing and print production, including: Commercial printers that need to manage estimating, production, purchasing and invoicing. Print brokers that need to manage customers, quotations, orders and associated business processes. The requirements of every print business are different, so the Printlogic team will be available at The Print Show to discuss individual workflows, existing systems and integration requirements. The team will demonstrate how Printlogic connects areas such as print estimating, quoting, order management, production scheduling, purchasing, inventory, invoicing, CRM and reporting. Visitors can also discuss their current print management processes and see how Printlogic could fit into their existing workflow. For businesses currently using spreadsheets, multiple disconnected systems or another print MIS, the event is an opportunity to see how an integrated print management system works in practice. Printlogic will be located at: Stand P215, Hall 1 NEC Birmingham 29 September - 1 October 2026 The Print Show is open from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Tuesday and Wednesday, and from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Thursday. Visitors can arrange a dedicated meeting or product demonstration with the Printlogic team during the event. For those unable to attend The Print Show 2026, Printlogic can also arrange a virtual demonstration.
