  1. 1

    Pick a switch date

    Choose a clean start, like the first of the month. Count your stock that day (Wave products have no stock fields).

  2. 2

    Export your data from Wave

    Business settings > Data Export > Accounting emails you transactions, customers, vendors and bill items. Use the Wave Connect Google Sheets add-on for chart of accounts, products and invoices, then Reports > Trial Balance > Export CSV.

    Only owners and Admins can use Data Export. No Wave Connect? Email us.

  3. 3

    Upload your files

    Download Google Sheets as CSV. Upload all files with our import tool, or email them to us for free migration help (first 50 businesses).

  4. 4

    Check your opening balances

    Compare opening balances to Wave's Trial Balance for the day before your switch date. Check open invoices and bills against Wave's Aged Receivables and Payables reports.

  5. 5

    Run both for a month, then cancel

    Use Wave and YourAILedger side by side for a month. When the numbers match, save a copy of every Step 2 export, then cancel any paid Wave plans.

Good to know

  • Live bank feeds are coming soon. For now, import bank statements as CSV or Excel files.
  • YourAILedger doesn't run or file payroll, or prepare or file taxes. If Wave runs your payroll, set up payroll elsewhere before you cancel.
