⚠️ ONLY TIMESHEET REPORTS can be imported to MYOB Business Lite. Invoices cannot be integrated since there's no option to import Sales data into that version.


In this article we cover:


Creating staff profiles and staff mapping

  • On MYOB Business Lite, go to Payroll > Employees > Create employee. Set the basic details and make sure the first/last name and email address match the staff’s profile on ShiftCare.

  • In the staff’s contact details, set the Employee number and match it with the External System Identifier on the staff’s ShiftCare profile.

    💡 Tip: You can also use the staff's unique ID from the ShiftCare URL

  • Back to MYOB Business Lite, move on to the Payroll details > Employment details tab to set the employment basis. Continue to the Salary and wages tab to set the pay basis and allocate the pay items for the staff.
