About the Manage Client File Imports wizard

The Manage client file imports wizard is where you'll import journal transactions from your client's file into an MYOB ledger. In this window, you'll map your the client's accounts to its equivalent account in your ledger.

There are two additional functions in this window:

  • The Delete previous import link will delete all transactions and journal entries posted by the import wizard for the previously imported client file (i.e. undo the import).
