Who implements it
Who implements MYOB Acumatica in Australia?
MYOB Acumatica is sold and implemented through MYOB and its network of approved partners. Auboros is one of those partners. We are a Brisbane team of certified MYOB Acumatica consultants with a software development and accounting background, which matters when your project needs integrations or custom screens as well as configuration.
When you compare partners, ask three things. Will the people in the sales meeting be the people doing the work? Is the scope fixed in writing before you sign? Can they show you a business like yours running on the platform? Our answers are yes, yes, and ask us for the reference.
What is MYOB Acumatica?
One system for your whole operation
MYOB Acumatica is the current name for MYOB Advanced. If you are researching MYOB Advanced implementation or looking for a MYOB Advanced partner, this is the same cloud ERP under its new name, and the same partner network delivers it.
MYOB Acumatica (formerly MYOB Advanced) is a cloud ERP platform built for Australian mid-market businesses. Finance, payroll, inventory, project accounting, distribution, manufacturing, and CRM all run in one database. No exports between systems. No double-entry.
MYOB rebranded the platform from MYOB Advanced to MYOB Acumatica in 2024, aligning it with the global Acumatica ecosystem. The technology is the same: if you've been using MYOB Advanced, you're already on MYOB Acumatica.
Most businesses move to MYOB Acumatica when they've hit the ceiling of what Xero or MYOB AccountRight can do. That usually means multiple entities, locations, or warehouses, payroll at scale, or project-level financial control that a basic accounting tool can't provide. If you are weighing that move now, our ERP migration guide covers what actually moves, what it costs, and how to decide.
If Odoo is also on your shortlist, our Odoo vs MYOB Acumatica comparison puts the two platforms head to head on cost, fit and implementation.
What the platform covers
- ✓ Financial management, general ledger, multi-entity, multi-currency
- ✓ Australian payroll, STP Phase 2, superannuation, leave management
- ✓ Inventory, purchasing, and order management
- ✓ Project accounting and job costing
- ✓ Distribution and manufacturing (MRP, production orders)
- ✓ CRM, service management, and customer portal
- ✓ Real-time reporting and dashboards
- ✓ Hosted on AWS within Australia
Implementation
What does a MYOB Acumatica implementation involve?
There are two routes. FastStart is a fixed-scope program MYOB designed for wholesale distributors that fit a standard model. A scoped implementation is for everyone else. We tell you which one you qualify for on the first call.
| FastStart Wholesale Distribution | Scoped implementation | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Wholesalers under 10 users, under 50 staff, single entity, single branch | Multi-entity groups, manufacturers, project and service businesses, anyone needing payroll or custom work |
| Timeline | 12 weeks across 7 checkpoints | Set in the scope document |
| Scope | Pre-configured finance, payables and receivables, inventory and pricing, sales and purchasing | Any MYOB Acumatica module, integrations, customisation, MYOB Exo Payroll migration |
| Your team's time | About 95 hours over the 12 weeks | Agreed during scoping |
| Price | Fixed up front | Fixed once scoped |

Timeline
How long does a MYOB Acumatica implementation take?
Twelve weeks on FastStart Wholesale Distribution, because the scope is fixed before the project starts and the business is under 10 users. A scoped implementation runs three to six months: finance and inventory for a single entity sits at the short end, multi-entity consolidation, projects, manufacturing or payroll migration at the long end. The clock is set by data condition and decision speed on your side more than by configuration on ours. Our MYOB FastStart for wholesale distribution page shows the 12-week plan week by week.
Cost
How much does MYOB Acumatica cost in Australia?
Two separate numbers. Licensing is per named user and quoted by MYOB for each business, which is why no partner publishes a reliable price list; the figure depends on edition, user count and modules. Implementation is quoted by the partner on scope: FastStart is a fixed price for its fixed scope, and scoped projects are priced after discovery. The costs people miss are data migration effort, third-party integrations and the first year of support, and we put all three in writing before you sign. The MYOB Acumatica cost guide gives realistic all-in ranges by business size.
Alternatives
How does MYOB Acumatica compare to NetSuite, Odoo, Wiise and Pronto?
| MYOB Acumatica | Odoo | NetSuite | Wiise | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Built by | Acumatica, localised and sold by MYOB for AU and NZ | Odoo SA, Belgium; AU localisation by Odoo and partners | Oracle | Wiise, on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, localised for Australia |
| AU payroll and STP | Built in | Payroll is a separate decision | Via third-party payroll | Built in |
| Multi-entity consolidation | Strong | Supported | Strong | Supported |
| Licensing | Per named user, quoted | Per user, published | Per user plus modules, quoted | Per user, quoted |
| Customisation | Generic inquiries, customisation projects | Studio and custom modules | SuiteScript | AL extensions |
| Best fit | Finance-led mid-market, distribution, projects | Channel-led, direct sellers, broad app needs | Large multi-national or subsidiary of one | Microsoft-standardised businesses |
| Implemented by Auboros | Yes | Yes | No, but we migrate off it | No |
Pronto Xi is the other name that comes up, usually from businesses already on it: Australian-built with an on-premise heritage and strong in distribution and retail. We do not implement Pronto; we have migrated from it. For a side-by-side with Odoo, see Odoo vs MYOB Acumatica; for NetSuite, NetSuite alternatives in Australia.
Fit
Is MYOB Acumatica a good fit for a mid-sized Australian business?
Usually yes between roughly 10 and 200 users, when the business has outgrown AccountRight, Xero or MYOB Exo and needs consolidated financials, inventory, projects or payroll in one system with Australian compliance built in. It is a poor fit under about five users, where an accounting package and an add-on are cheaper and adequate, and for businesses whose main problem is ecommerce and channels rather than finance, where Odoo is usually the better answer. Our clients range from wholesalers under 10 users on FastStart to a group of more than 100 users.

What support is available after implementing MYOB Acumatica?
The consultants who built your system are the ones who support it.

Most clients start on a monthly support plan after go-live and adjust it once the system settles.
Industries
Which businesses use MYOB Acumatica?
Professional Services
MYOB Acumatica suits professional services firms that bill by project, retainer or time and need WIP, resource allocation and revenue recognition in the same ledger as payroll, without bolt-on tools.
MYOB Acumatica for professional services firms →Wholesale Distribution
MYOB Acumatica Distribution Edition is the version built for wholesalers: multi-warehouse inventory, purchase orders, landed cost and customer pricing tiers in one place. Auboros delivers it through FastStart with a 12-week go-live; the full wholesale distribution ERP guide covers the industry picture.
View FastStart Wholesale →Manufacturing
Manufacturing Edition adds bills of materials, routing, MRP, work centres and production costing to the same financials, so no separate manufacturing system is needed.
MYOB Acumatica for Australian manufacturers →Franchise Groups
MYOB Acumatica runs franchise groups as multi-entity: shared charts of accounts, inter-company billing and consolidated reporting across locations. Each franchisee gets their own view; you get the consolidated picture.
MYOB Acumatica for franchise groups →Member-Based Organisations
MYOB Acumatica suits member-based organisations that need membership billing, renewals, events, deferred revenue and fund accounting in one system: associations, peak bodies and NFPs that have outgrown basic accounting tools.
MYOB Acumatica for member-based organisations →Not-for-Profit
For not-for-profits, MYOB Acumatica provides grant accounting, restricted-fund tracking, donor records and compliance reporting, with separate fund ledgers consolidated across the whole organisation.
MYOB Acumatica for not-for-profits →Australian compliance
Built for Australian payroll and tax obligations
STP Phase 2
Single Touch Payroll Phase 2 reporting is built in. Pay event data reports directly to the ATO each pay run, covering all required income stream types.
Superannuation Guarantee
The current super guarantee rate is calculated and applied automatically. SuperStream-compliant contributions can be submitted directly from the platform.
Payday Super (from July 2026)
From 1 July 2026, employers must pay super within 7 business days of each pay date. MYOB Acumatica supports this requirement natively.
BAS, GST, and PAYG
BAS preparation, GST reporting, and PAYG withholding are built into the financials module with Australian-specific tax codes and ATO reporting formats.
Using MYOB Exo Payroll? Your window has already closed.
MYOB Exo Employer Services (Exo Payroll) reached its license renewal deadline in November 2025. Tax rates and compliance thresholds stop updating in October 2026, after which the payroll module becomes non-compliant for STP, super, and ATO reporting. Note: MYOB Exo Business (the financials and operations side) is not end of life and remains supported. If your organisation is running Exo Payroll and hasn't started planning a replacement, you're running out of time. See your migration options or talk to us directly.
AI
What AI features does MYOB Acumatica have?
MYOB announced AI Studio for MYOB Acumatica in April 2026, built with AWS, with general availability planned for the 2026 R1 release (MYOB press release). Separately, MYOB and Microsoft have a five-year partnership with natural-language querying on the roadmap (MYOB press release). Today, the practical AI in a MYOB Acumatica implementation is what we add around it: AI-run data migration, document capture for accounts payable, and agents working through the API. Our AI agents for ERP in Australia page explains what that looks like on a live system.
FAQ
MYOB Acumatica: questions we get asked regularly
What is MYOB Acumatica, and how is it different from MYOB AccountRight?
MYOB AccountRight is an accounting tool designed for small businesses. It handles invoicing, bank feeds, payroll, and basic reporting well. MYOB Acumatica is a full ERP platform for mid-market businesses that need more: multiple entities, multi-warehouse inventory, project accounting, manufacturing, and advanced reporting. Most businesses move from AccountRight to Acumatica when AccountRight's reporting or multi-entity limitations start causing real problems.
How much does MYOB Acumatica cost in Australia?
MYOB licenses Acumatica per named user and quotes licensing directly for each business, so we will not publish a licence price that may be wrong by the time you read it. Implementation is a separate cost and depends on scope: FastStart Wholesale Distribution is a fixed-scope 12 week program, and broader implementations are scoped after discovery. We have written a full guide to what MYOB Acumatica costs in Australia, and a 30 minute consultation will get you a realistic all-in range for your situation.
Is Auboros a certified MYOB Acumatica partner?
Yes. Auboros is an Official MYOB Acumatica Partner in Australia. We implement, customise, develop, and support MYOB Acumatica for businesses across Queensland and the rest of Australia. Our team includes certified MYOB Acumatica consultants with hands-on implementation experience across multiple industries.
What is the FastStart Wholesale Distribution program?
FastStart is a fixed-scope, fixed-timeline implementation program for businesses that fit a standard industry profile. Auboros delivers FastStart Wholesale Distribution, which covers core financials, inventory, purchasing, and sales order management. The target go-live is 12 weeks. Scope and price are defined upfront, which removes the uncertainty that makes standard ERP projects stressful.
Does MYOB Acumatica handle Australian payroll compliance?
Yes. MYOB Acumatica includes built-in Australian payroll. Single Touch Payroll (STP) Phase 2 reporting is handled natively, with pay event data submitting directly to the ATO each pay run. The current superannuation guarantee rate is applied automatically and SuperStream-compliant contributions can be submitted from within the platform. MYOB Acumatica also supports the Payday Super changes taking effect on 1 July 2026, which require super contributions within 7 business days of each pay date.
I'm still on MYOB Exo. Do I need to move, and when?
It depends on which part of Exo you are on. MYOB Exo Business (financials and operations) is not end of life and remains supported. MYOB Exo Employer Services (Exo Payroll) is a different matter: license renewals stopped in November 2025 and tax compliance updates stop in October 2026, after which the payroll module becomes non-compliant. If you are running Exo Payroll, you need to have moved to a replacement payroll solution before October 2026. A payroll migration typically takes 2 to 4 months.
Can MYOB Acumatica be customised for our workflows?
Yes. MYOB Acumatica can be configured and customised to reflect your specific approval workflows, reporting requirements, and operational processes. Auboros builds custom integrations with third-party platforms, develops industry-specific functionality, and creates tailored dashboards for different user roles. Customisations are built in a way that survives platform upgrades.
Is there a MYOB Acumatica partner on the Gold Coast?
There are very few ERP partners with a genuine Queensland presence. Most national MYOB Acumatica partners are headquartered in Sydney or Melbourne. Auboros is based in Brisbane and works with businesses across the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Toowoomba, and regional Queensland. If you need a local team rather than a fly-in consultant, we are the closest specialist MYOB Acumatica partner with hands-on Queensland delivery experience.
How does MYOB Acumatica compare to Odoo for an Australian business?
Both are capable mid-market ERP platforms with strong Australian compliance coverage. MYOB Acumatica is a more mature platform for complex financial management, particularly multi-entity consolidation, project accounting, and distribution. Odoo tends to suit businesses that want more flexibility to customise, are comfortable with open-source software, or want a broader range of modules under one licence. Auboros implements both, which means we can give you a straight answer about which one fits your situation better. We have written a full Odoo vs MYOB Acumatica comparison.
Is MYOB Advanced the same as MYOB Acumatica?
Yes. MYOB Advanced was renamed MYOB Acumatica. It is the same cloud ERP platform with the same Australian payroll and compliance features, delivered by the same partner network. Existing MYOB Advanced sites did not need to migrate.
Is there a MYOB Acumatica partner for Sydney businesses?
Yes. Auboros delivers MYOB Acumatica for Sydney and wider NSW businesses from Brisbane, with remote workshops and on-site visits for scoping and go-live. We wrote up how a MYOB implementation in Sydney works.
Is MYOB Acumatica the same as Acumatica?
Yes. MYOB Acumatica is the Acumatica platform licensed, localised and sold by MYOB for Australia and New Zealand, with local payroll, tax and bank integrations added. It was sold as MYOB Advanced until the 2024 rename.
Ready to see if MYOB Acumatica fits your business?
We work with mid-market businesses in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, regional Queensland, and across Australia. A free consultation takes about 30 minutes and gives you a clear picture of what an implementation would involve.
