Moving from MYOB Exo to MYOB Acumatica without a single minute of downtime

A construction group has moved from MYOB Exo to MYOB Acumatica without a single minute of downtime – learn how!

Transitioning from MYOB Exo to MYOB Acumatica is often seen as complex, but for organisations using Dataline APA the shift is minimal and highly streamlined.

At Dataline, we understand that the success of this change isn’t just about technology, it’s about ensuring business continuity, data integrity, and confidence at every stage. For those using the APA portal and related processes, there are very few required changes, the new Dataline Acumatica API also makes the connection seamless.

Case Study: Construction Company Finance Transformation

A leading construction group recently partnered with Dataline to migrate their Dataline APA from MYOB Exo to MYOB Acumatica Cloud ERP.
Immediately they gained:

• Real-time project visibility
• Zero downtime
• A direct API connection with MYOB Acumatica
• Same portal, same processes so minimal internal changes.

But most importantly, they transitioned without business interruption. A testament to Dataline’s focus on process precision and customer care.

How Dataline Delivered a Smooth Migration

Over the past decade, Dataline has developed a proven approach to transitioning AP processes from legacy systems like MYOB Exo to MYOB Acumatica, with minimal risk and zero operational downtime.

Our process is designed to safeguard your financial data, protect your reporting continuity, and support your team through each stage of change.

1. Discovery & Alignment
We begin by confirming your current Exo environment, data dependencies, and reporting structures. This allows us to design a migration plan tailored to your organisation’s setup and future needs.

2. Data Readiness
Our specialists ensure all data is validated, workflow processes are maintained, and business rules remain in place. This step prevents legacy inconsistencies from carrying into the new system.

3. Secure API Migration & Testing
We execute the change from the Exo sync to the Acumatica Dataline API. We test API connections and data flow so that all records are reconciled and workflows are maintained.

4. Training & Transition Support
Once migrated, we go through the new connection with the team. The training is minimal as the APA portal and processes remain the same so there is no downtime, and no new processes to learn.

The Dataline Difference

• MYOB-Certified Specialists: Deep understanding of both MYOB Exo and MYOB Acumatica ensures accuracy at every step.
• No Downtime Philosophy: Operations continue throughout the migration process.
• Data Integrity First: Every record is verified, not assumed.
• Local Expertise: Locally based support teams ensure ongoing partnership and responsiveness.
• No major change program required, same portal, same processes. Leading to a very simple change process.
