Run the Conversion
Install Accredo and create a Company to convert into.
Backup MYOB data.
Print an error report to provide a record to compare with error reports from the new Accredo Company.
Copy the conversion tool MYOB2Saturn.exe or MYOB2Mercury.exe to the Server. The conversion tools are in the Convert folder on the Accredo Installation media. Updates are available from the Accredo FTP site, under the release version /Convert folder. Save the conversion tool to the Desktop or the AccredoSaturn or AccredoMercury folder.
Double click the MYOB2Saturn.exe or MYOB2Mercury.exe file to open the conversion tool.
Select the MYOB data path. Select the Accredo path and Company.
Click Run. The conversion has 2 phases:
Preparation phase - sets the periods and years, identifies the Current Period for each module.
Conversion phase - converts the data into the prepared periods and years.
A sound plays when the conversion is complete, the title bar flashes with “Completed - MYOB”. When the conversion is complete, close the conversion dialog.
Open the Company in Accredo. Ensure the Current Period for each module is correct. If not, contact Accredo Support.
Once the Current Period is correct for each module, backup Accredo data.
Perform a file recovery and fix any Chart Of Accounts errors.
Print an error report and compare it with the error report for the original MYOB data.
Note: Do not do any setup in the company prior to conversion as the data is re-initialised during conversion. Data may be converted into a demonstration system.
