In MYOB AE version 5.4.27, you may notice that when creating emails from AE/AO via DM or PM it takes a long time (up to 10 minutes) for the draft to open in Outlook.
This issue can occur when AE/AO is running in elevated mode. This can occur when some of the workstation files have not updated at following locations.
Operating system | Location |
---|---|
32 bit workstation | C:\Program Files\MYOB\WorkstationAutoUpdate |
64 bit workstation | C:\Program Files (x86)\MYOB\WorkstationAutoUpdate |
If you are running 5.4.27 version, the workstation files should be dated March 2018.

If the files are not updated, perform a workstation install.
