Switching

You are coming from somewhere else. That is the point.

Switching is the most tedious part of accounting software, and the reason people stay for years where they are not happy. So we bring your history along and let your old environment sit next to the new one for as long as you want.

What comes along.

Customers and suppliers, your chart of accounts, outstanding sales and purchase invoices, and the historical entries you need to keep comparable figures. What does not come automatically you import through CSV with columns you map yourself.

  • Import from Moneybird, WeFact, Exact Online and e-Boekhouden
  • Customers, suppliers and chart of accounts
  • Outstanding sales and purchase invoices
  • CSV with columns you map yourself
  • From an invoicing package such as WeFact you get customers, invoices and subscriptions but no ledger; the opening balance comes from an audit file or is entered by hand

Pick a moment that suits you.

The calmest switch is straight after a closed VAT period or at the start of a financial year. You set up the opening balance, enter the outstanding items, and start with an administration that balances from day one. Keep your old package alongside for as long as you like.

And if it does not suit you.

You can export your entire administration at any time in JSON and in XAF, including after you cancel. We hold you nowhere with a format only we can read. That is not a favour, it is the only honest way to ask you to switch.

  • Export in JSON and XAF, after cancelling too
  • An audit file your accountant can read
  • Evidence travels with the export
  • Cancel monthly

Frequently asked questions

How long does a switch take?

For a sole trader it is usually an evening: set up the administration, run the import, check the outstanding items. With several administrations or a lot of history, allow half a day, ideally just after a closed period.

Do I have to cancel my old package straight away?

No, and we advise against it. Leave your old environment in place until you have filed a return from Readybooks and compared the figures.

What if my package is not listed?

Practically every package exports to CSV. You map the columns yourself for customers, invoices and entries. If you get stuck, email us what you have and we will look at the file with you.

Will my numbering continue?

Yes. Per document type you set the number your sequence continues from, so your invoices follow on from what you already sent in your old package.
