2024.1 Adapt release notes – May 2024

The 2024.1 release adds more ERP data that can be edited and uploaded with Adapt Desktop. It also makes names in MYOB Adapt more consistent with MYOB Acumatica.

We’ve also resolved issues identified in previous versions for ERP and payroll migrations.

Adapt Desktop new features

Knowing when to update the Adapt customisation

To keep your migrations going smoothly, Adapt Desktop now checks that the Adapt customisation is up to date on the MYOB Acumatica site you’re migrating a customer to. If the customisation is out of date, you get a message reminding you to update it by re-publishing with cleanup.

Consistent names

To make it easier to know how different elements in MYOB Adapt relate to MYOB Acumatica, we’ve made names more consistent:

Progress item names now match the screen in MYOB Acumatica that data will be uploaded to.
For MYOB Acumatica screens with multiple tabs, the progress item name is now the MYOB Acumatica screen name followed by a dash and the tab name. E.g., Progress Item Name – Tab.
Column names now match the MYOB Acumatica field that data will be uploaded to.
Mapping screens now describe their use. E.g., Branch Map, Supplier payment, Method Map.

More comprehensive progress items

For migrations from MYOB Exo Business, we’ve updated the progress items for ERP migrations. Some progress items have new fields and columns, some have been reworded so their names are more accurate, and some are new altogether.

Improved trigger dates for leave rollovers

We’ve resolved an issue where trigger dates weren’t automatically updating during leave rollovers.

As part of the fix, we’ve added two new progress items to make sure trigger dates are accurate. This helps you upload trigger dates corresponding to each employee’s leave entitlements.

Pay Details – Employment Details – This progress item contains the trigger date details.
Pay Details – Employment – This progress item lets you upload the details to MYOB Acumatica.

New leave progress items (Exo ES NZ)

For migrations from MYOB Exo Employer Services New Zealand, we’ve added two new progress items: Leave (Exo ES Excel Export) and DVL Leave (Exo ES Excel Export).

These progress items require you to add an extra menu option to MYOB Exo Employer Services.
