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.

US groups with MYOB-using subsidiaries in Australia or New Zealand face a timing complexity: Australian entities close on 30 June (a different fiscal year than most US parents). BrizoConsol handles consolidations across different fiscal year-ends, allowing US parents to consolidate Australian MYOB entities on any reporting cycle.

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.

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.
US GAAP Regulatory Context

ASC 810 Consolidation Requirements for US Groups Using MYOB

US groups preparing consolidated financial statements under US GAAP must comply with ASC 810 Consolidation, with foreign currency translation governed by ASC 830 Foreign Currency Matters. BrizoConsol automates ASC 810-compliant consolidation for US groups using MYOB, including NCI attribution under ASC 810-10-45 and CTA calculation under ASC 830 included in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI).

ASC 810 — Consolidation

ASC 810 requires a US parent entity to consolidate all subsidiaries it controls through a majority voting interest or through variable interest entity (VIE) relationships. NCI (non-controlling interest) is presented separately within equity under ASC 810-10-45. BrizoConsol applies ASC 810-compliant logic — including full intercompany elimination and NCI attribution — across all connected MYOB entities automatically.

ASC 830 — Foreign Currency Translation (CTA)

US groups with foreign subsidiaries apply ASC 830 Foreign Currency Matters. BrizoConsol applies the current rate method — closing rates to Balance Sheet items, weighted average rates to P&L — and calculates the Cumulative Translation Adjustment (CTA). The CTA is included in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) in the consolidated Balance Sheet, consistent with ASC 220 and ASC 830 requirements.

SEC Reporting and Audit Readiness

US public companies filing with the SEC under Regulation S-X must present consolidated financial statements audited by a PCAOB-registered firm. BrizoConsol produces audit-ready consolidated output — with full elimination audit trails and period-by-period CTA schedules — that can be handed directly to your external auditors. All adjustments are traceable to the originating MYOB entity and transaction.

Typical US Group Structure

US-based groups typically operate subsidiaries in Canada (CAD), the UK (GBP), Australia (AUD), India (INR), and the UAE (AED) — each requiring USD translation under ASC 830. Many use MYOB in their US entities and Xero, MYOB, or other platforms overseas. BrizoConsol consolidates all of these currencies in a single run, applying ASC 830-compliant rates automatically.

US-Specific Questions

Common Questions from US Groups Using MYOB

Yes. BrizoConsol applies ASC 810-compliant consolidation logic for US groups using MYOB. This includes full intercompany elimination across all connected entities, NCI calculation and presentation consistent with ASC 810-10-45, and foreign currency translation under ASC 830. The consolidated output — P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and intercompany elimination schedule — is audit-ready for your external auditors.
BrizoConsol applies the current rate method required by ASC 830. For each foreign subsidiary, Balance Sheet items are translated at the period-end closing rate and P&L items at the weighted average rate for the period. The resulting Cumulative Translation Adjustment (CTA) is calculated automatically and presented in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) within the consolidated Balance Sheet — consistent with ASC 220 and ASC 830. The CTA movement by entity is available for each reporting period.
Yes. US groups frequently use MYOB in their domestic entities and Xero, MYOB, Zoho Books, or other platforms in their overseas subsidiaries. BrizoConsol connects to each accounting platform independently and consolidates all entities into a single US GAAP-compliant group view — applying ASC 830 currency translation and ASC 810 eliminations across all connected platforms simultaneously.
