Why Connect MYOB to ServiceM8?

Job scheduling in MYOB and invoicing in ServiceM8 are disconnected, delaying payments for completed work

ServiceM8 adds complexity: reporting capabilities are adequate for small businesses but lack the depth needed for multi-location or franchise operations

Invoice and payment data is re-entered between MYOB and ServiceM8 manually, doubling the work and risking GST errors at month-end

Online orders in MYOB and in-store inventory in ServiceM8 are never in sync, frustrating customers

MYOB limitations compound the integration challenge: third-party app integrations are more limited than Xero, with fewer modern SaaS tools offering native MYOB connections

Manually copying data between MYOB and ServiceM8 wastes hours every week that could be spent on revenue-generating work

MYOB uses a REST API while ServiceM8 uses REST + Webhook, requiring careful middleware to translate data formats between the two platforms

How We Help

Every week without this integration costs your Trades & Construction and Retail & E-commerce business 8+ hours/week in manual data handling between MYOB and ServiceM8. Our Harvard-educated consultants build a sync that eliminates that waste permanently. On the technical side, MYOB uses a REST API with OAuth authentication, and ServiceM8 authenticates via OAuth, which our team handles as part of the build.

Unified Contacts Across Both Platforms

Contacts in MYOB and clients in ServiceM8 stay perfectly aligned. Every update, whether it is a new phone number, email change, or company association, is reflected in both systems within seconds.

From Job Site to Invoice, Automatically

When a job is completed in MYOB, invoicing data flows to ServiceM8 without anyone touching a spreadsheet. Tradies get paid faster, admin gets their weekends back.

Eliminate Manual Data Entry

Stop copying contacts between MYOB and ServiceM8 by hand. Our integration syncs data automatically, saving your team 8+ hours/week.

Scalable Without Extra Headcount

As your data volume grows, the integration scales with you. No need to hire additional admin staff to keep MYOB and ServiceM8 in sync, even as your business doubles.

MYOB to ServiceM8 Use Cases

Sync MYOB contacts to ServiceM8 clients

When a contact is created or updated in MYOB, the corresponding client record in ServiceM8 is automatically created or updated. Contact details, company associations, and custom fields are all mapped.

Scheduled reconciliation between MYOB and ServiceM8

A daily or weekly reconciliation job compares records across both platforms, flags discrepancies, and generates a mismatch report. Catches sync gaps before they become accounting headaches.

Automated error handling and retry for MYOB/ServiceM8 sync

When a sync between MYOB and ServiceM8 fails due to a rate limit, network issue, or validation error, the integration retries automatically with exponential backoff. Your team is alerted only when intervention is genuinely needed.

Auto-generate MYOB invoices from ServiceM8

When jobs are completed in ServiceM8, an invoice is automatically created in MYOB with the correct contact, line items, GST rates, and payment terms. Eliminates the delay between finishing work and sending the invoice.
