After all of the data is entered or imported and reconciled to ensure everything balances and is accurate you can produce financial reports to understand what is happening in a business. Some financial reports show overall financial health while other reports help you cross-check and confirm the data is entered and coded correctly.

Migrating from MYOB Accountright
Accounting software programs are databases essentially made up of contacts (suppliers & customers), inventory items (or services), employees and invoices and purchases and your chart of accounts. When you make the decision to migrate away from your current software program to a new one you need to export all the data and then import it into your new accounting software program.
The migration from MYOB AccountRight to Xero is very common and you’ll most likely need to use Microsoft Excel spreadsheet program halfway through to make sure all of the data is correct and matched.

Just What IS Cloud Accounting?
For the most part, MYOB has been the dominant accounting software provider in Australia. MYOB is a global company that started creating their software in Australia. In 2013 it was purchased by a large US Private Equity company; Bain Capital and later sold to another large US private equity company
After software version 19.5, the company had to re-create their software from scratch because the code-base it was previously built on was no longer going to be supported.
MYOB now has to compete against old rival Intuit QuickBooks Online and Xero who have both focused on creating powerful “online” accounting programs that you can access from anywhere and any device.
To compliment their online accounting software MYOB, Xero and QuickBooks now offer apps and Integrations which enable business owners to better manage their expenses and receipts, staff rostering and electronic payments (just to name a few).
We have been proudly teaching people to use MYOB through our MYOB Training Courses since 1996 when we opened our first training centre in Sydney’s Lane Cove. Sue and Trish started the centre to help mums up-skill to return to the workforce after being away for several years.
In 2006 we migrated all our training course materials onto a University-grade learning management system and started delivering all our courses online – well before Covid19!

Why Should I Use Cloud Accounting Software?
There are lots of reasons why you should opt for cloud accounting software, if you haven’t already. Some include:
- Most small businesses realise the benefit for both their staff and their accountant (who works remotely from his/her own office) can see the information and make entries and modifications at the same time.
- With the emergence of Bank feeds that exists for cloud accounting, much of the data that previously had to be entered by entry-level bookkeepers is now entered automatically.
- Having a hosted solution means that the software provider ensures the highest level of security and storage (most of them seem to be using Amazon’s AWS) which means you don’t need to worry as much about having a backup and moving files around.
- Interaction between your accounting software and other programs like quoting, workflow management, project management and MANY others means you can have a more comprehensive system that all works together using what is called API (Application Programming Interfaces). See Integrations below..
- Live data means it is up-to-date and you can get instant reports about profitability, cash-flow and credit management.
- Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence means that the software will learn about your transactions and the coding that you use (or should use).
