Hi John,
We have a full API which you can use to import stuff if you’re technical enough.
We generally give people converting over the following advice:
Run a Trial Balance on your existing accounting software.
1) Enter all your currently outstanding invoices and bills into bullet (only the ones with payment due – not the paid ones).
2) Take a look at the Trial Balance on Bullet.
3) Figure out the difference between the original trial balance you got from your old software and the trial balance in Bullet.
4) Enter these differences as a big manual journal entry.
After the above, your trial balance on Bullet should be the same as on your old software, and you’re all ready to go.

    Hi John,

    Sure, Bullet is a full accounting product. A similar spec to Xero but the only difference is we've built this layer of workflows on top of it.
    The workflows understand all the accounting logic and build your accounts/management reports.
    You can obviously bypass these by simply using our manual journal entries, but we advice people to just simply follow the workflows.
    They'll product you're accounts in the most efficient way possible.
    Thanks Pete

    OK found the categories, I'll be happy to follow workflows but how do I account the depreciation of computers , printers etc?
  4. Peter Connor May 8, 2016
    That's all built into the workflows :)

    OK, well, better not get bogged down in detail for now, I'll come back to that at tax submission time. thanks and enjoy your evening. John.
