File ID does not match
Basic Principles
- When a Data Set file is created, it is linked to a specific MYOB® company file. This Data Set file can only be linked to that original MYOB® company file, or a copy thereof. It cannot be linked to a different company file as Payee IDs and Cat ID's will be different in different files.
- If a Payroll Category (based on Cat ID) exists in the linked MYOB® company file, it must also exist in the Data Set file. The number in both must match. Do not delete a Payroll Category from the Data Set file just because you don't use it.
- If a Payee (based on Payee ID) exists in the linked MYOB® company file, it must also exist in the Data Set file. The number in both must match. Do not delete a Payee from the Data Set file just because you no longer pay them.
Loading Data
When you load current Payroll data from a linked MYOB® company file, you may see this message:
If this message appears because you have linked a different MYOB® company file to this Data Set file, you should click Cancel. Then use Browse 3 to link the correct MYOB® company file. You cannot link an existing Data Set file to a different MYOB® company file.
You will need to create a new Data Set file - use this button on the Permanent Data Set screen:
