Cause

MYOB has special API licensing requirements for certain MYOB features (including inquiry creation and writing data to MYOB from Excel).

Resolution

An API license is required for the task.

Either:

• a user with an existing API license must perform the task or 

• an API license must be assigned to the user attempting the task.
