There are two areas of Fathom where you can update financial data:
The My Companies page
The Source Data section of Company Settings
💡Smart Tip: If you've imported divisional data for your company (e.g. tracking categories, classes, locations), the divisional data will also update when you update your financials.
From the ‘My Companies’ page
You can update your financial data for cloud-sourced companies (Xero, QuickBooks Online, MYOB Business, Sage Business Cloud) from your ‘My Companies’ page.

Companies sourced from one of our Desktop-based integrations or Excel will be taken to the ‘Source Data’ section of the company's Settings when they select this option.
💡Smart Tip: You can bulk update cloud-sourced companies from the ‘My Companies’ page.
Update Source Data in the Fathom Pro Company Settings
For all companies on a Fathom Pro plan, you can update your financial data within the Company Settings.

If your financials are sourced from one of the following cloud-based systems - Xero, QuickBooks Online, or MYOB Business - Fathom will automatically update your financial data once every 24 hours for companies on a Fathom Pro plan. This can also be switched on for companies sourced from Sage Business Cloud.
You can find more detailed instructions on updating your company’s financials in the following articles:
Import Current Month Data
By default, Fathom will automatically update your data to the nearest completed month. However, for cloud-sourced companies (Xero, QuickBooks Online, Sage Business Cloud, MYOB Business) on a Fathom Pro plan, you can import current-month data.
Automatically import current month results (MTD)
You can enable Fathom to automatically update your data to include the current month's results.
To enable automatic updates of the current month's results:
|
Manually import current month results (MTD)
You can also manually update Fathom to the current (incomplete) monthly period to bring in month-to-date (MTD) results.
To do so:
|
Remove financial periods
If required, for companies on a Fathom Pro plan, you can delete previously imported financial periods. This is useful if you have imported results for incomplete periods, which may be distorting Quarter to Date (QTD) or Year to Date (YTD) analysis. To do this, simply select 'Remove Periods' next to your financial date range.
❗Notice: Unless your data is imported from Xero, QuickBooks Online, or Sage Business Cloud, once the starting date of your data has been altered by removing historical periods, these periods cannot be re-added, except by deleting and re-importing the company to Fathom.
