Managing Tracking Categories, Jobs, and Classes for Conversion

Xero recommends using no more than 100 tracking categories to avoid reporting performance issues.

  • For the Accelerate package, we can convert a maximum of 500 jobs.

  • Xero has a hard limit of 2,450 tracking categories. If your file exceeds this, you may need to reduce the number of jobs to meet package criteria.

If your file exceeds the 500-job limit however contains fewer than 2,450 jobs, you can request a custom conversion to accommodate this. 

MYOB

What’s Included in the Total Count: All active, inactive, and header jobs plus categories. To determine the total number of jobs in MYOB:

  1. Navigate to Lists > Jobs > Print.

  2. Ensure you tick Include Zero Balances in the Header.

    • If this is not selected, the count will be incorrect.

    • If you received an email stating your count is higher than your report, this is the likely cause.

To delete MYOB jobs:

  1. Go to List > Jobs.

  2. Open a job.

  3. Right-click and select Delete.

NotesSuggestion: Complete this process on a copy of your MYOB file to retain the original for reference. This option may not be supported in all versions.
