How Account Right interacts with existing Accounting software

I am needing help to understand how AccountRight will interact with my existing accounting program, it is a custom built software. I need to be able to transfer my data across, would this be possible or would I need to start fresh?

  • Hi Tom395 

     

    We are working on an improved conversion service that will migrate the data to our products. This is currently in the final stages of implementation. Check out Move to MYOB for more information.

     

    In saying that, if the software you have been using is custom-built software it is unlikely that the conversion service would migrate that data. However, the way I see it you do have two options:

     

    • Work a date to take the current card and account balances as at. You can then that information into a new company file in AccountRight using the Setup>>Balances or Easy Setup Assistant.

     

    • Provided that the software can export the data in a suitable format you can export that out and then import that information into an AccountRight company file. Please note: This is can be a tricky process, especially if you haven't used the Import and Export function in the past.
