When you import a MYOB AccountRight Live company into Fathom, your company’s Chart of Accounts will automatically be brought into Fathom. You can import a maximum of 3000 accounts and up to 8 years of monthly data. For information about 13th period adjustments, please see that section of this article.

Frequently Asked Questions
Company File Version
Each MYOB AccountRight file has a company file version which initially is the version of MYOB the file was created with. You can see the version by opening your library browser in AccountRight and hovering over the file name. If your AccountRight file is stored online, then MYOB requires it to be no more than three versions behind the most recent version of AccountRight.
If you encounter this issue, you will need to first ensure your AccountRight desktop client is upgraded to the latest version and then open your company file. You will be prompted to upgrade the company file.
How are 13th period adjustments reported in Fathom?
13th period adjustments will not be distinguishable from regular financial results within Fathom.
The data will be applied to the monthly results based on the transaction date of the adjustment.
For example, adjustments made in the '13th period' to April results will be visible in Fathom reports for the month of April and for that financial year.
