Migration of Accounting System
Quite often companies will want to change from one Accounting package to another…
However, the process can be time-consuming and difficult particularly if there is no basic knowledge of the steps one must take. Some companies offer a free migration but require everything to be perfectly reconciled before uploading, which can cause unnecessary stress. Even if they were to be able to get everything uploaded, they would still need to map all the accounts meaning you basically end up doing it all by yourself.
Clients Needs Bookkeeping is a company who has the expertise required to finish this task within a single day, although the process is to sign up for the new accounting package a month early. This time allows the duplication of the chart of accounts and payroll card files and properly prepare for the migration.
How We Work
After the preparation, On the first day of the new quarter the bank feeds are activated. At the same time, time will be taken to close off the old file and make certain everything is reconciled and ready to do a transfer over to the new file. Also ensuring that the supplier and customers outstanding invoices are in alignment and check that it all balances out. Once this is done, you can start using the new file. There will be ongoing support to make sure that everything is running smoothly, and that there is a feeling of support during and after the migration.

Luckily, this is exactly what clients needs company’s Director, Matthew Powell has been doing for over 15 years as a bookkeeper. Clients Needs is one of the most talented and experienced companies in this field and have helped many clients make a smooth transition while keeping their businesses running.

Our Process
How it begins
The process usually starts with a phone call. Whether you know exactly what you need from your bookkeeper, or have no clue about what to expect, talk to us about your business, experience and requirements, and we’ll come up with a plan to ensure your financials are managed in the most effective way,
Because of the breadth of our experience, no matter what the circumstances, we are ready to hit the ground running. Sometimes, we’ll come on-site in the first instance and work with you over a period of time. We’ll go through all records and documentation to ensure everything is up-to-date and exactly where it needs to be. If you don’t have an online accounting package already up and running, we’ll recommend one for you, and assist in the implementation, training and migration.
Remote Integration
Once we’re satisfied the foundations are all in place, we’ll ensure we have everything we need to begin working remotely on whatever aspects of your financial operations you need support with. From this point forward, you can completely let go of the administration-burden that comes with managing your financials. We’ll keep things ticking over in the background, meaning you can feel safe in the knowledge that everything is being managed exactly as it should be.
Clear Direction
Our goal is to develop strong, trusting, ongoing relationship with our clients. We like to think of ourselves as an extension of your team, effectively managing all assigned bookkeeping duties, day-in-day-out, so you’ll always have the clearest picture of where your business is at financially.
