Q: How difficult is it to transfer to cloud from MYOB?
Q: Can you import your data from previous solutions (I use Cashflow Manager) into a
new cloud solution?
Q: I currently use both QuickBooks and MYOB. How difficult is it to import existing data
without errors and does one of the Cloud solutions perform the importing better than
another?
Typically you would not try to import history; you would set-up the framework and enter the opening balances. Importing is done in txt or csv format, so if you can export the data in txt or csv format, you can manipulate them as necessary in Excel, match the fields up as required and then import them into the solution. You want to do this so you can ensure the data is current and relevant.
