Switching from Other Farm Accounting Programs
Recently we have had an increasing number of customers who
are already using a farm accounting system (such as Frontier, Doane, AgData
and Famous) switch to The Farmer's Office. We have developed a set of tools that makes it easier to
switch over from some of these programs by transferring your data from your old
program to The Farmer's Office.
This option gives you some flexibility; some people like to
have a fresh start and take advantage of the change in software to redesign
their chart of accounts, cost centers, etc. But if you'd like to avoid
a lot of setup work, transferring your data directly over to The Farmer's
Office will save you time.
Also, the import options make it a snap to change accounting
systems even in the middle of your fiscal or calendar
year. You can take your data
with you to a new program without having to do all of the setup work and catching up
that would normally be necessary.
The following table shows which data
files may be imported from other ag accounting software systems:
After your information is imported,
reports are printed from your old software and compared to reports
printed from The Farmer's Office. This will verify that the
payroll totals and general ledger account balances have been imported
into The Farmer's Office match your old system.
Switching from Quickbooks
If you are using Quickbooks Pro and Quickbooks Online, we
can import customers, vendors, items and employees from Quickbooks IIF or
XML files.
