2023.3 Adapt release notes – November 2023

Easy access to online help

You can now quickly open the MYOB Adapt online help from within MYOB Adapt Desktop and Adapt Uploader. Go to the Help menu and choose Online Help.

Adapt Desktop

Payroll only

We've added People Payroll User to the Pre Migration Check List progress item. Previously, you had to select this in the MYOB Advanced site.

ERP only

We've renamed data fields in Adapt Desktop to match the field names in MYOB Advanced, so you can be sure you're working on the right data.
We've added MYOB Advanced fields that were previously missing, so you don't have to enter that data directly in MYOB Advanced.

Other changes

In the Item Data tab, we've replaced the Show Advanced Values and Show Original Values checkboxes with the Show dropdown, which has three options:

Data – Shows the data that is in Adapt Desktop.
Data + Advanced Values – Shows Data (described above), as well as Advanced columns with the data that you most recently uploaded to MYOB Advanced.
Data + Previous Upload – Shows Data (described above), as well as Previous Upload columns with data from your second most recent upload.
Data + Original Values – Shows Data (described above), as well as Original columns with data as it was originally imported to Adapt Desktop from the source product.

Adapt Uploader

ERP and payroll

You can now extract data as many times as you need without having to restart the migration. Previously, re-extracting data could delete changes you made in Adapt Desktop. Plus, you no longer need to rebuild the staging database. This saves you time and stress of redoing changes when a site is nearly ready to go live.

Source product data

ERP only – Migrating master data separately from transactional data

For ERP migrations, you can now start by migrating master data (things like stock items, etc. that don't change often). Then, when you're ready to make the migrated site live, you can migrate transactional data (things like the trial balance, etc. that do change often). This makes it easier to test the migration data.

For a full list of master and transactional data, see Extracting ERP data.
