Before and After

What Month-End Actually Looks Like — and What It Should Look Like

Here is a realistic picture of the month-end close for a four-entity MYOB group, with and without BrizoConsol.

Manual consolidation — 4-entity MYOB group
Day 1
Open each MYOB company file and confirm final entries are posted. AccountRight users open each file from the MYOB hub; MYOB Business users log into each business account. Confirm bank reconciliations and period postings are complete in each file before proceeding.
1–2 hrs
Day 1–2
Export a Trial Balance from each company file. AccountRight exports as tab-delimited; MYOB Business as CSV — different column structures mean you must manually reformat each export before you can map them to a common structure.
3–4 hrs
Day 2
Map each entity's accounts to the group reporting structure. Rebuild the mapping for any new accounts added during the period.
2–3 hrs
Day 2–3
Look up FX rates. Apply closing rates to balance sheet items, average rates to P&L. Build currency translation adjustment calculation.
3–4 hrs
Day 3–4
Cross-reference intercompany transactions. Build elimination journals. Reconcile both sides. Investigate mismatches.
4–6 hrs
Day 4–5
Assemble group P&L and Balance Sheet in Excel. Sum columns. Fix broken formulas. Check that everything balances. Format for board distribution.
4–6 hrs
Total time per month4–5 days
With BrizoConsol — same 4-entity group
Day 1
Each entity closes in MYOB (AccountRight or Business). BrizoConsol syncs updated general ledger data automatically via the overnight sync — or manually triggered after close.
Auto
Day 1
BrizoConsol applies account mappings configured once at setup. New accounts trigger an alert for review — no full remap needed each period.

Day 1
Currency translation runs automatically using current exchange rates. Closing rates applied to Balance Sheet, average rates to P&L. CTA calculated.

Day 1
Intercompany eliminations detected and applied. Mismatch alerts raised for any unreconciled intercompany balances — finance team reviews only the exceptions.

Frequently Asked Questions

MYOB Month-End Consolidation — Questions Answered

The month-end consolidation process for an MYOB group involves confirming all entities have closed their books, extracting and mapping general ledger data from each MYOB company, applying currency translation for foreign entities, eliminating intercompany transactions between entities, and producing a consolidated P&L, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow. Without automation, each of these steps requires manual effort — exporting from each MYOB company, reconciling account structures, calculating FX, and assembling consolidated statements in a spreadsheet. With BrizoConsol, all of this runs automatically once entities close.
With BrizoConsol, the group consolidation runs automatically as entities close — reports are typically available within hours of the last entity confirming close, on the same day. The finance team's time is spent on review and approval rather than data assembly. Without a consolidation tool, most MYOB groups report spending 3–5 days per month on manual consolidation work before group reports are ready.
BrizoConsol automates: syncing general ledger data from all connected MYOB companies, applying account mappings to translate entity accounts into the group reporting structure, currency translation including CTA calculation, intercompany elimination with automatic detection and mismatch flagging, NCI calculation based on configured ownership percentages, and the production of consolidated P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and supporting reports. What remains for the finance team is exception review, manual adjustment posting (where required), and final sign-off — not data assembly.
Yes. BrizoConsol can produce a preliminary group view at any point using whatever data is available from connected MYOB companies. This is useful for tracking close progress — seeing which entities have updated their data and which are still pending — and for an early read on group performance before the final close. The official consolidated statements are produced once all entities have confirmed close and the finance team has signed off on any adjustments.
After close, BrizoConsol makes available: consolidated P&L, consolidated Balance Sheet, consolidated Cash Flow Statement, intercompany elimination report with full audit trail, entity-by-entity variance analysis vs prior period, group dashboard with live KPIs, and Pulse health scores across cash flow, AR, margin, and risk signals. All reports are available for export to PDF or Excel, and can be scheduled for automatic delivery to stakeholders.
Entity-level reporting in MYOB shows the financials of a single organisation — revenue, costs, assets, and liabilities as that entity has recorded them. Group reporting goes further: it combines all entities, eliminates transactions between them, translates different currencies into a single reporting currency, and applies NCI adjustments — producing a view of the economic group as a whole that neither overstates revenue nor double-counts balances. Entity reports are appropriate for subsidiary-level management and compliance; group reports are what boards, investors, and auditors need.
Who Uses MYOB Group Consolidation

Built for Australian and New Zealand Multi-Entity Groups

MYOB is the dominant accounting platform for Australian and New Zealand businesses. Groups headquartered in Australia or New Zealand — with entities spanning AUD, NZD, and other regional currencies — are BrizoConsol's core MYOB user base. Whether you're a private equity-backed portfolio, an ASX-listed group, or a family-owned multi-entity business, BrizoConsol fits the way AU/NZ groups actually operate.

Australian Holding Structures

Australian groups typically operate as a Pty Ltd holding company owning one or more Pty Ltd or Ltd operating subsidiaries — often with a New Zealand arm and, increasingly, a Singapore or UK entity. BrizoConsol consolidates all entities under AASB 10, applying FCTR per AASB 121 and NCI where ownership is less than 100%.

MYOB AccountRight + MYOB Business Groups

Many Australian groups use a combination of MYOB AccountRight (for the main holding entity) and MYOB Business (for smaller subsidiaries). BrizoConsol connects to both MYOB products and consolidates them in a single run — no need to export and reconcile between products.

Trans-Tasman Groups (AUD + NZD)

AU/NZ groups are a natural fit for multi-currency consolidation. BrizoConsol translates NZD entities into AUD under AASB 121 — applying closing rates to Balance Sheet items and average rates to P&L — and calculates the FCTR automatically. No separate currency workbook needed.

Mixed Platforms (MYOB + Xero)

Australian groups that grew through acquisition often end up with some entities on MYOB and others on Xero or QuickBooks. BrizoConsol consolidates across all platforms in one run — every entity is treated equally regardless of which accounting system it uses.
