Migration Account Right to Business Lite

Hello Community,

Looking for some help with migrating the company file to Business Lite from Account Right. I have a AR subscription which has been cancelled but I have access for another 30 days. I have Registered for the "Try Free for 30 Days" myob lite plan. I now have two serial numbers and two client ids. I've researched the topic in community and was told i need to migrate the company file. A link to a 3rd party migration service was provided but it seemed to be for migration from non myob software to a myob product only.

Also seem to be conflicting information regarding finalizing STP before migrating. I have been told to finalize STP in the old file before migration. But I called MYOB and they said just update the BMS ID after looking it up on an old event submission on the ATO portal.

Any help is gratefully received.

    Hi Neb_Seivad,

     

    It seems like you might have information from the MMC conversion, which deals with migrating data from other software to MYOB. To ensure you have the correct details for migrating your data from AccountRight to Business Lite, here's a link you can check out: Move from AccountRight to Business Lite

     

    It's also crucial to finalise your STP in AccountRight before transitioning to Business Lite to ensure all your payroll data is accurately reported to the ATO. Concerning the BMS ID, you don’t need to update or change it, you only need to notify the ATO about the new software ID associated with MYOB Business Lite. 

     

    Cheers,

    Princess
