Environment Transfer

If you want to transfer a client to another one of your MyCodaBox environments (e.g. a different accounting software), you can request this transfer directly in MyCodaBox, and simultaneously also request the resending of CODA for this client.


The principle is easy: The transfer of your client to the new environment is done without cancelling the delivery of CODA/SODA, and without having to have a new mandate signed by your client!


★ To ensure an optimal transfer and timely delivery of CODA to the new MyCodaBox environment, create your transfer request once you have already started managing your client's file in your new accounting software.


Tip: Receiving an error message during the process of transferring your client to another environment?

Resend CODA

When you transfer your client to a different environment, you can - if needed - simultaneously request the re-delivery of CODA files from the past to the environment you're moving your client into.


In the 'Redeliver past CODAs' field, select the date as of when you want the CODA to be redelivered.Request the resending of CODA via MyCodaBoxYou are the right person to determine this date, which is important so you can continue to work optimally for this client in your new accounting software.
