Product information
Products cannot be added in Onsight. They need to be added in MYOB. When you create a new product in MYOB, it is automatically copied to Onsight and it is placed into a product category called ‘Imported from MYOB’. You should mark this product category as inactive so that it does not display in the Onsight app. Then move all the products that you find there to the correct product category that you want them to belong to.
We copy several product data fields from MYOB. Any changes you make to these fields in Onsight will be lost when we copy data from MYOB. Therefore, you should not change any of these fields in Onsight:
- Product name
- Product description
- Product images
- Cost price
- Price
- Taxable
- Applied taxes
- Stock on hand
- Product code
- Active
Additional product information
Onsight has many additional product fields that you can display in the Onsight app. Any changes you make to these fields in Onsight will be maintained and will not be overwritten when we copy data from MYOB.

Product images
Some of your products in MYOB might have images. If there is no image in Onsight, we will copy the MYOB image to Onsight. If there is already an image in Onsight, we leave the existing image in place. If you upload new images into Onsight, they will not be replaced.
If you want to replace the images that are in Onsight with new images from MYOB, you can delete the existing images in Onsight and the new MYOB images will automatically be copied to Onsight.
MYOB’s product custom fields
MYOB products can have three custom text fields and three custom dropdown fields. You can request that all six fields be stored as product custom fields in Onsight and they will then display in the Onsight app for sales reps and customers to view.
Inactive products
If you mark a product as inactive in MYOB it will get marked as inactive in Onsight. If you change the product back to active it will get marked as active again in Onsight.
