MYOB's small business portal launches
Specialist accounting software provider MYOB has announced a new online portal for small business services that it claims will help accountants enhance their client relationships.
It said the new product, MYOB CompanyDocs, would enable accountants to easily set up a new corporate structure online anywhere, any time, starting with proprietary limited company registrations and meeting Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) requirements.
It said that in coming months the service would be extended to cover the establishment of superannuation funds.
MYOB accountants division general manager Adam Ferguson said the portal would strengthen MYOB's accountant partners' reputation as trusted small business advisers.
"They can register a new company for their client and check domain name availability — all within CompanyDocs, with a step-by-step guide and tips provided along the way," he said.
