Activating Migration Mode

To add accounts receivable or accounts payable documents to MYOB Advanced without affecting the general ledger, you need to activate migration mode in the needed MYOB Advanced subledger (or in both subledgers). Also, if you need to migrate project balances, you need to activate migration mode for projects, as described below.

Activating Migration Mode for Accounts Receivable

To turn on migration mode for the accounts receivable subledger, you use the Accounts Receivable Preferences (AR101000) form. On this form, in the Posting Settings section of the General tab, you select the Activate Migration Mode check box; you then click Save on the form toolbar. You can select or clear this check box at any time.

Note: If migration mode has been activated, auto-application of payments to outstanding documents is not supported by the system.

Activating Migration Mode for Accounts Payable

To turn on migration mode for the accounts payable subledger, you use the Accounts Payable Preferences (AP101000) form. On this form, in the Posting Settings section of the General tab, you select the Activate Migration Mode check box; you then click Save on the form toolbar. You can select or clear this check box at any time.

Activating Migration Mode for Projects

To turn on migration mode for projects, you use the Projects Preferences (PM101000) form. On this form, in the General Settings section of the General tab, you select the Activate Migration Mode check box. Then you click Save on the form toolbar.
