Migrating AccountEdge multi-currency to Business Lite

I have a small online store (it sells paper notebooks in the iPad age…) that has been using AccountEdge since around 2009.  I buy stock in Euros and have used the multi-currency feature for purchases...

    Hi RazzDazz

     

    Bit of a tricky one, because your AccountEdge file has used multi‑currency, our migration team can’t move that file into MYOB Business/Lite at all, even if it’s only a few Euro purchases. There’s no supported way to strip those out, so it’ll fail migration checks.

    Realistically, you’ve got two paths:

    • Keep multi‑currency → move to AccountRight Premier (Windows), which does support multi‑currency and lets you keep your history.
    • Go simple and cheap with Business Lite → start a brand new Lite file, bring in just your lists (accounts/customers/items) and AUD opening balances, and keep the old AccountEdge file just for looking up history.
