You can upgrade the files and move them online in a few easy steps.

What you can do on the Desktop files page

Upgrade AccountRight classic files

Click Add desktop files to get started. See Upgrade an AccountRight classic file for all the details.

Upgrade options
When upgrading an AccountRight classic file with an active licence agreement, it will be upgraded to the new AccountRight with the same billing details. If it doesn't have an active licence agreement, you can choose any AccountRight product level or MYOB Essentials (except NZ Payroll – as this is not a ledger product), as well as who pays.
