Software Conversion to Xero

Moving from MYOB, QuickBooks, spreadsheets or anything else? We convert your business into a brand-new Xero file — opening balances, open bills and invoices, payroll and leave data all brought across properly, with training included.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

A Complete Xero Conversion Package

A good conversion starts with the right start date. The start of the financial year is ideal, but the start of a quarter works too. From there, we bring across everything you need and set up your new Xero file properly — all as part of one package.

Opening Balances

All opening balances brought across as at your chosen start date.

Open Bills & Invoices

Every unpaid bill and outstanding invoice carried over, so nothing is missed.

Payroll & Leave Data

Employee payroll data and leave balances transferred into Xero Payroll.

New Chart of Accounts

A fresh chart of accounts set up to suit how your business works today.

Bank & App Connections

New bank feeds connected and your third-party software linked to Xero.

Xero Training

Hands-on training so you and your team are confident in Xero from day one.

SMART CHOICES

Why Businesses Are Moving to Xero

We have been converting plenty of businesses to Xero lately. Here is why a clean conversion is worth doing properly.

01

A Clean Start

Rather than dragging years of old coding problems across, you start with a fresh, well-structured file from a clear start date.

02

Nothing Left Behind

Opening balances, open bills, open invoices, payroll and leave data all come across, so your new file picks up exactly where the old one left off.

03

Ready to Use From Day One

Bank feeds, apps and training are all set up as part of the package, so you can start using Xero straight away.

OUR PROCESS

How Your Xero Conversion Works

01

Choose a Start Date

We agree on a start date — ideally the start of the financial year, or the start of a quarter.

02

Set Up Xero

We build your new chart of accounts, connect your bank accounts and link your third-party software.

03

Bring Your Data Across

We transfer opening balances, open bills and invoices, payroll and leave data, and check everything balances.

04

Train & Support

We train you and your team in Xero and stay on hand while you settle in.

Your Local Xero Partner in Mornington

Based on Main Street, Mornington, our team converts businesses across the Mornington Peninsula to Xero. You can sit down with us in person, not just over a screen share.

Once you’re up and running, we can look after your ongoing Xero bookkeeping.

Why the Start Date Matters

Starting your new Xero file at the beginning of the financial year keeps your reporting clean and makes year-end simple. If that is not practical, the start of a quarter lines up neatly with your BAS reporting.

Payroll Moved Across Properly

Payroll is often the trickiest part of any conversion. We bring across your employees’ payroll and leave data so STP reporting and leave balances carry on without a hitch. Learn more about our payroll services.

Britt has been an integral part of getting our Xero up to date, initially we were running our own payroll and processing our bills, it was cumbersome and took too much time. Double balance has allowed us to step back and grow our business. Highly recommend

The experience with the team at Double Balance has been extrodinary. They picked up things that others haven't. My business is better for having reached out to them. I can not thank them enough.

Exceptional Bookkeeping Service - Couldn't Be Happier! I've been working with the double balance team for over 5 years now, and I can honestly say they've been a game-changer for my business. From day one, they've kept me completely up-to-date on all my financial matters and have taken so much stress off my shoulders. What I appreciate most is their reliability and attention to detail. They're always on top of deadlines, provide clear and timely reports, and make tax season a breeze instead of the nightmare it used to be. The peace of mind they've given me over these 5+ years is invaluable. I can focus on growing my business knowing that my books are in expert hands. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any business owner.
