Every template is divided into three sections:

Header

The fields in the header are pre-defined and are populated when the workpaper template is attached to a client file. All MYOB master templates contain the same header.

Body

The body of the MYOB master template contains the actual calculations and workpaper details. All MYOB master templates contain a Notes section for entering free text and a Document Links section to link to source documents using Document Manager or Windows Explorer.

The footer section of all MYOB master templates only contains the page number.
