Configuring Registration Information

The Registration Keys section controls the registration code entry for MYOB EXO Business modules. The registration codes are specific to the company name, the individual EXO Business product, number of users and the expiry date of the registration code.

Tip: Note the colour of the highlight bar and module. If the line is red, then the module, number of users, security code, expiry date and/or company name do not match the code given. Check that all the items match the code requested.

Modules are divided into two sections: Core and Add-on. A single registration code applies to all Core modules. Add-on modules are all separately licensed - a registration code must be supplied for each one. Registration codes can be downloaded and applied automatically, or they can be obtained from MYOB and entered manually. Both operations are performed from the Registration Keys section.

Before applying registration keys, however, it is vital to ensure that the company name is set up correctly:

Click Change Name to set the company name of the system.
Enter the company name on the window that appears, then click OK.

Note: The spelling of the company name is critical for the registration code to be accepted. Ensure the name given when obtaining the registration codes from MYOB is exactly the same as entered above. Take special care with abbreviations (Limited vs. Ltd), and punctuation (Pty. vs. Pty). Incorrect spelling of the company name will cause the security code entry to be marked as
If the company is the subsidiary of a larger company, click Change Parent Name to set the name of the parent company.

To enter registration information:

Double-click the “EXO Business” module name.
Enter the following fields:

Max Users The registered number of users, as per the number of concurrent licences purchased from MYOB.

Registration Key The registration code received from MYOB for the selected module.

Expiry Date The expiry date for the EXO Business module. For more information of how this will be applied to the end user, refer to the Terms and Conditions of the End User Licence Agreement.
Click Save to save these settings.

Note: The EXO Business module is the only module associated with an expiry date, however generally operation of the add-on modules will not be practical without a correctly registered EXO Business product.

Tip: Specific registration codes are not required for the core modules included with MYOB EXO Business, with the exception of EXO Business Config.
