Article ID: 31320

In MYOB Practice Manager (MYOB PM) there is no option to automatically charge interest on overdue debtor balances. 

Interest can be charged by entering a miscellaneous charge with a zero tax rate.

For details refer to Entering a miscellaneous charge in Practice Manager.


To set up a new Miscellaneous Charge Task Code with a zero tax rate

    For AE sites, if no nominal code defaults are set up, you will need to manually add a nominal account under the Nominal column for this new miscellaneous code type under Maintenance > Ledger Maintenance > Nominal Codes > Data Entry Codes Available for Company tab. 

    Once this is complete, you should then set up your default nominal codes from Maintenance > Ledger Maintenance > Nominal Codes > Nominal Code Defaults tab, so you do not have to manually apply a nominal code to a new task code again, as the system will then apply a default nominal when the new code is created.

    For more details on creating new task codes and nominal code defaults, refer to Creating a new task code for timesheet/disbursement data entry.
