MYOB is one of the best-known accounting names in Australia and New Zealand. Earthmoving contractors, agricultural businesses, mining services firms and trade businesses have run their books on it for decades, first in AccountRight and now often in MYOB Business. It holds the supplier bills, the jobs, the GST and the bank feeds.
What it rarely does is answer a quick question from someone standing next to a broken machine. "How much have we spent on the CAT 320 this financial year?" usually means a call to the office and a job report later in the week. With Agentic CMMS, the person who asks can get the answer straight from their AI agent.
What your AI agent can do with MYOB
- Cost a machine or site. "What have we spent on the excavator fleet this financial year?" The agent totals bills and spend money transactions coded to those jobs.
- Check a supplier. "What do we owe Southern Cross Hydraulics, and is anything overdue?" You get the open bills and their ageing.
- Compare jobs. "Which of our sites had the highest repairs and maintenance cost last quarter?" It ranks jobs by spend on the accounts you use for maintenance.
- Find a bill. "Did the invoice for the generator service at Kalgoorlie come in?" The agent searches bills by supplier, date and job.
- Enter a bill. "Add a bill from Outback Tyres for $2,380 including GST, job TRUCK-07, account Vehicle Repairs." With write access, it creates the bill for your review.
- Raise a purchase order. "Create a purchase order to Perth Bearing Supplies for four idler rollers."
- Total GST on repairs. "How much GST did we pay on maintenance purchases this quarter?"

Built for how Australian and New Zealand businesses report
Australian and New Zealand businesses think in financial years, GST periods and job codes, and the agent does too. Ask about "this financial year" and it reads the periods set up in your MYOB file, whether your year ends in June or in March. If part of your group still uses Reckon, the same agent can compare both sets of books in one answer.
Each person approves their own agent with their own login, owners and admins decide which roles may create bills, and every call is written to the activity log.
