If you have existing data, you can migrate a MAS, Accounts or AO Classic General Ledger to MYOB Ledger.

The data migrated to the MYOB Ledger includes:

  • ledger details (such as entity type, reporting period)
  • chart of accounts
  • closing balances of the financial year.

You can migrate either:

  • the full prior year balances
  • the partial current-year balances, including transactions for any future periods. This migrates transactions that are equal to or greater than the financial year start date as a Journal type.

Use the Select to migrate current year transactions checkbox to choose your preference when migrating data.

Comparative figures are migrated into MYOB Ledger, so you can use the figures for review processing and produce financial statements with up to 5 years of data.

Before you begin

You may want to check the following:

  • the ledger you are migrating is balanced
  • asset journals have been posted from AE Assets or AO Classic Fixed Assets to your legacy ledger
  • the current ledger year has been completed.
