Quick project scope
Convert MYOB to Xero with a structured migration plan
Switching from MYOB to Xero is usually less about the software and more about risk. Businesses worry about losing transaction history, breaking payroll, confusing the accountant, or ending up with a messy Xero file that nobody trusts.
Our MYOB to Xero conversion service covers the lot: chart of accounts, contacts, invoices, bills, bank transactions, reconciliation status, payroll history, leave balances, super fund details, and opening balances. Everything is extracted from MYOB, cleaned, mapped, migrated, and validated in Xero.
HELLO PEOPLE is a Perth-based software consultancy delivering fixed-price migration projects Australia-wide. If you need to migrate from MYOB to Xero with a clear plan, quote, and cutover path, that is exactly what this page is for.
Why businesses delay this migration
These are the fears we hear every week. All of them are solvable with proper scoping and a structured migration process.
Scared of losing data
The biggest fear. Years of contacts, invoices, history, payroll records — what if something goes missing? That fear is why businesses stay on the wrong platform for years.
Downtime during the switch
Your team needs to keep working. Nobody can afford a week where the system is offline and invoices cannot go out or staff cannot be rostered.
Messy data in the old system
Duplicates, outdated contacts, broken formatting — if you bring that mess into the new system, you have just migrated the problem.
Reporting continuity
Your accountant, auditor or management team needs historical reports to still make sense after the move. Broken reporting is a deal-breaker.
Connected systems break
Integrations with other platforms — CRM, payroll, eCommerce — need to work with the new system from day one. Not after a few weeks of scrambling.
Cost blowouts
The migration was quoted at one price but kept growing. Scope creep, unexpected complexity, hidden charges — the project ends up costing double what was promised.
Get Started
Tell us about your MYOB to Xero migration project
Tell us what must reconcile in Xero, which historical data must come across, and which reports, payroll periods, or connected systems cannot break. We will scope the migration and cutover risk, then come back with a fixed-price plan.
MYOB to Xero migration — what is included
Every migration is different, but here is what we typically cover for a MYOB to Xero conversion.
Chart of accounts mapping
Your chart of accounts in MYOB does not always map one-to-one to Xero. We review the structure, consolidate where needed, and set up Xero so reporting works the way your accountant expects.
Tax codes, tracking categories and account types are all mapped before any data moves.
Contact and customer migration
Every contact in MYOB — customers, suppliers, employees — gets migrated with ABNs, payment terms, email addresses and account codes intact.
Duplicates are merged. Stale records are flagged. The contact list in Xero starts clean.
Historical transaction migration
Invoices, bills, payments, credit notes and journal entries — migrated with dates, references and line-item detail preserved.
We validate that trial balances, aged receivables and BAS-relevant totals reconcile before go-live.
Bank feeds and reconciliation
Bank transactions and reconciliation status are migrated so your team does not have to re-reconcile months of history.
Bank feed connections are re-established in Xero with matching rules configured.
Payroll and leave migration
Pay rates, leave balances, super fund details, tax declarations and year-to-date figures are all migrated and validated.
We time the cut with your payroll cycle so nothing gets disrupted mid-period. STP reporting continuity is preserved.
Reporting continuity
Profit and loss, balance sheet, BAS, aged receivables and custom reports — we validate that Xero produces the same numbers as MYOB for any given period.
If you need historical comparison reports, we configure those before go-live.
How we price MYOB to Xero migrations
Price moves with entity count, chart cleanup, payroll history, custom tax rules, connected apps, and how tight the cutover window is. Here is how we scope it.
Migration audit call
Tell us what must survive in Xero, what workflows or reports cannot break, and whether the move fits one fixed-price migration or needs phased delivery.
Fixed-price migration scope
Once data scope, workflow rebuilds, connected systems, and cutover risk are clear, you get fixed-price scope covering cleansing, migration, validation, and go-live. No open-ended estimates.
Phase history and integrations separately
If the move includes heavy history, connected systems, or adjacent rebuild work, we can split it into core migration first, then history, then integrations. Each phase has its own price and sign-off.

Common questions about MYOB to Xero migration and conversion
How much does a MYOB to Xero migration cost?
Every migration is different — data volume, complexity, connected integrations and the platforms involved all affect the scope. We assess your specific MYOB setup, map out exactly what needs to happen, and give you a fixed price before any work starts. No hourly billing, no open-ended estimates. Book a free no-obligation scoping call and we will give you a clear number.
Do you provide a MYOB to Xero conversion service, not just advice?
Yes. We handle the full MYOB to Xero conversion service end to end: scoping, data cleansing, mapping, migration, reconciliation, payroll continuity, cutover, and post-go-live support. This is not a DIY advisory session. We do the work and validate the results against your MYOB data before sign-off.
How long does the migration take?
A typical MYOB to Xero migration takes 2 – 6 weeks. We give you a realistic timeline during scoping — not a best-case estimate.
Will we lose any data during the switch?
No. We extract everything from MYOB, validate counts and balances at each step, and keep your source system untouched until you are confident the migration is complete. There is always a rollback option.
Can our team keep working during the migration?
Yes. We plan the migration so your team continues using MYOB until cutover. We run parallel systems where needed so there is no operational gap.
Do you clean up our data before migrating?
Yes — data cleansing is included. Duplicates are merged, dead records removed, formats standardised and field mappings validated before anything moves to Xero.
Do you handle the integrations with other systems?
Yes. Any platforms connected to MYOB — accounting, CRM, payroll, eCommerce — need reconnecting to Xero. We handle the full integration layer so everything works from day one.
Is our data secure during the migration?
Yes. All data is processed by our Australian team. We use secure, encrypted connections and never store credentials. Your MYOB data is not modified — we extract a copy for transformation and loading.
Do you only work with Perth businesses?
We are based in Perth but work Australia-wide. Around half our clients are in Melbourne, Sydney or Brisbane. Remote delivery is standard for us.
