When you’re ready to switch to FastBound, you should only transfer open items (items that have been acquired but not disposed). Import files are uploaded under Settings > Import.

4. Dropbox
-
ATF ruling 2016-1 requires that you must download your bound book at least daily in a format that is unencrypted. To automate this you can link a free Dropbox to your FastBound account. With Dropbox linked to your FastBound account, FastBound will generate a Bound Book every night and save it to your Dropbox. This can be enabled under Settings > Dropbox.
