MYOB Ledger only
Transactions can be imported into Client Accounting using the Manage client file imports wizard. You can find this function on the Tasks bar of your client's Client Accounting > Trial Balance (or Workpapers) tab.
You can only import transactions via Client Accounting if your configured ledger is an MYOB Ledger. If you're using something different, you can still use the import functions in your configured ledger's software.
We'll guide you through importing transactions using the QuickBooks 2014 Template.
Whilst we can tell you about our MYOB Software, we're not experts with QuickBooks.
If you need help with QuickBooks, the QuickBooks product help should answer your questions.

Choose whether you want to map your client's account codes to your ledger's accounts, or to import your client's accounts:
Option Description The chart of accounts in the file being imported is different to the chart in the ledger – I want to specify how to map the accounts to the ledger If the chart of accounts in the export file is the same as your chart of accounts, you can choose whether to select this option.
When this option is not selected, all transactions import with the account code from the export file. Any accounts that don't exist in your chart are automatically added.
If your chart of accounts is different from the chart in the export file, select this option. This will let you map the exported accounts to your ledger accounts.
