Trusted by Accounting and Finance Teams.

MYOB AccountRight and MYOB Business have no built-in Google Sheets connector. Google Sheets reads from external sources via Apps Script or add-ons - not directly from accounting APIs.

The standard path for MYOB Google Sheets reporting is to sync your MYOB data into a SQL database first, then import into Google Sheets via Apps Script JDBC or a SQL connector add-on.

Why Manual MYOB CSV Exports Break Down for Teams

MYOB's export function works fine for a one-off analysis. It fails as a repeatable team process - exports are point-in-time snapshots, and every export requires a manual step inside MYOB. When different team members export on different days, the numbers diverge.

MYOB's summary report exports flatten line-item detail. Getting invoice lines with chart of accounts codes and jobs - the data needed for proper project-level P&L - requires drilling into individual transactions. This isn't repeatable at scale, especially for AU and NZ businesses managing multiple job codes across dozens of clients.

The database sync approach eliminates the export step entirely. SyncTools maintains the MYOB API connection, handles incremental sync, and writes normalised relational tables to a SQL database on a schedule you control.

Google Sheets imports from those tables automatically via Apps Script. Jobs and categories sync as columns on transaction rows - use them as filter dimensions in your shared Google Sheets dashboard without any join logic.

How to Connect MYOB to Google Sheets with SyncTools

Four steps. No CSV exports. No custom API code. No manual refresh steps.

1

Connect MYOB to SyncTools

Authorize SyncTools via OAuth - read-only access, SyncTools never modifies your MYOB data. Select entities to sync: Invoices, Bills, Customers, Suppliers, GL Entries, Chart of Accounts, Items, Jobs, and Categories.

2

Configure your destination database

Bring your own PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, or Azure SQL instance - or use the SyncTools-hosted database. SyncTools creates the schema and runs the initial historical sync automatically.

3

Connect Google Sheets via Apps Script

In Google Sheets, go to Extensions → Apps Script and use the JDBC service to query your database. Load invoices, invoice_lines, customers, and chart of accounts into named sheets. For a no-code option, install a SQL add-on like SeekWell or Coupler.io.

4

Build dashboards and set up auto-refresh

Build charts and pivot tables. Use MYOB jobs and categories as filter dimensions. Set up a time-based Apps Script trigger to auto-refresh. Share with your finance team - everyone sees the same live MYOB data.

Sync MYOB to the Database You Already Use

Most alternatives lock you into proprietary middleware or data warehouses. SyncTools syncs to the database you already run, or gives you a hosted option if you don't have one.

Key differentiator: OdataLink exposes MYOB data via OData - Power BI still queries live MYOB APIs at refresh time. SyncTools pre-syncs your MYOB data into a real SQL database. Power BI reads SQL - no live API calls, no rate limits, no OData query language to learn.

PostgreSQL

Most popular open-source DB

Fully supported. Ideal for AU and NZ teams running Postgres in AWS Sydney, Google Cloud, or on-premises. SyncTools creates and manages the schema automatically.

MySQL / MariaDB

Common in existing infrastructure

Supported natively. If your stack already runs MySQL - common in hosting environments and ecommerce backends - SyncTools writes directly into it.

SQL Server

Enterprise environments, Power BI's native source

Sync MYOB to SQL Server and connect Power BI using its built-in SQL Server connector. No ODBC setup. No OData middleware required.

Azure SQL

Cloud-first Microsoft stack

For AU organisations on Azure. Sync MYOB to Azure SQL and connect Power BI Service using the managed SQL connector - no gateway required for cloud-to-cloud connections.

SyncTools-Hosted Database

No infrastructure to manage. SyncTools provisions a dedicated database for your organisation and keeps it running. Ideal for AU and NZ teams that want zero DevOps overhead. Power BI connects via the hosted database's SQL endpoint - no gateway required.

If your database isn't listed, contact us - we're expanding support.

Why Database Sync Beats Manual CSV Exports

The SQL sync → Google Sheets import architecture is not a workaround - it is how AU and NZ finance teams keep collaborative MYOB dashboards accurate without manual effort.

Jobs & Categories as Dimensions

MYOB jobs and categories sync as columns on every transaction row. Use them as filter dimensions in Google Sheets pivot tables for project-level or departmental P&L analysis - the kind of breakdown MYOB's summary CSV exports cannot provide.

Real-Time Team Collaboration

One Google Sheet, shared with your whole team. Everyone sees the same automatically-refreshed MYOB data. No emailing spreadsheet versions, no 'which file is latest?' No MYOB login required to view the data.

Any BI Tool Works

Once data is in your database, Google Sheets, Excel, Power BI, Tableau, or any SQL client can connect simultaneously. Start with Google Sheets and add Power BI later without reconfiguring the sync.

One-way sync guarantee: SyncTools reads data from MYOB and writes to your database. It does not write data back to MYOB. Your accounting records are never modified.

SyncTools also supports QuickBooks, Xero, Sage, NetSuite, Dynamics 365 Business Central, and Zoho Books - so you can sync multiple accounting platforms into the same database for unified Google Sheets reporting. See the QuickBooks Google Sheets Connector, Xero Google Sheets Connector, Sage Google Sheets Connector, NetSuite Google Sheets Connector, Dynamics 365 Google Sheets Connector, and Zoho Books Google Sheets Connector pages for details.

If you use Power BI, Tableau, or Excel, see the MYOB Power BI Connector, MYOB Tableau Connector, and MYOB Excel Connector pages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a native MYOB Google Sheets connector?
MYOB AccountRight and MYOB Business have no built-in Google Sheets connector. The manual approach is to export a MYOB report as CSV and paste it into Sheets. The automated approach is SyncTools: it syncs MYOB to a SQL database, and Google Sheets imports from that database via Apps Script or a SQL add-on - no manual export required.
How do I connect MYOB to Google Sheets without exporting CSV?
Use SyncTools to sync MYOB to a SQL database (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, or Azure SQL), then connect Google Sheets via Apps Script JDBC (Extensions → Apps Script) or a SQL add-on like SeekWell or Coupler.io. Set up a time-based trigger to refresh automatically on your schedule.
Does SyncTools work with MYOB and Google Sheets?
Yes. SyncTools writes MYOB data to a SQL database. Google Sheets connects to that database via Apps Script JDBC or a third-party SQL add-on. Once connected, you can schedule automatic imports so your dashboards always show the latest MYOB data.
What MYOB data can I get into Google Sheets with SyncTools?
SyncTools syncs MYOB invoices and invoice lines, bills and bill lines, customers, suppliers, chart of accounts, general ledger entries, items/inventory, tax codes, bank transactions, and jobs/categories. Header and line-item tables are both included for full row-level analysis.
How often does MYOB data refresh in Google Sheets?
SyncTools syncs from MYOB on a configurable schedule - every 15 minutes to daily. Google Sheets refreshes from the database via an Apps Script time-based trigger - hourly, daily, or on any interval you configure.
Can I use MYOB jobs and categories as dimensions in Google Sheets?
Yes. SyncTools syncs MYOB jobs and categories as columns on invoice and transaction rows. In Google Sheets, you can use them as filter or pivot dimensions for project-level or departmental P&L analysis - no additional join logic required.
Can multiple team members see the same live MYOB data in Google Sheets?
Yes. Share the Google Sheet with your finance team and everyone sees the same automatically-refreshed MYOB data - no emailing spreadsheet versions, no 'which file is latest?' questions.
How much does SyncTools cost?
SyncTools charges a flat $50/month per company, unlimited rows, unlimited syncs. There is no per-seat pricing and no row-volume overage fees.
Does SyncTools write data back to MYOB?
No. SyncTools is a one-way sync - it reads data from MYOB and writes to your database. Your MYOB data is never modified by SyncTools.
