The July 2021 update of OdataLink took longer than expected but is finally here.
Here is the list of what’s new in OdataLink for July 2021.
For Xero data files
For MYOB data files
For everyone
We entered OdataLink under the Technology Platform Solution of the Year category for 2021. You can see out entry video here.
Last night, 30th of June 2021, our efforts were recognised by receiving a Merit Award (close second) in the Technology Platform of the Year category. (A merit award is issued when it is difficult to decide the winner between the top two participants.)
A round of applause for our merit award to @AccountingAddon for their innovation Odatalink, well done!@AIIA_ICT #iAwardsSANT #iAwards2021 @telstrapurple

We would like to congratulate the winner for the category, HCL Technology – DWS iApply for the Government of South Australia, which provides a software-as-a-service (SaaS) that the South Australian government implemented to provide a digital forms platform across South Australia.
For Accounting Addons, a small team with modest resources, receiving a merit award is a great accomplishment.
We would like to thank all our customers, early adopters, our staff, as well as the people at both MYOB and Xero for their support.
To Nicolas Emmerich for trusting my vision, his enthusiasm and his amazing development work to figure out how to make this thing fly.
To Simonne Salathé for guidance and management of administration.
To Alice Hilhorst from Orange Fridge for the design, look and feel and logos.
To Tara Stephenson for providing space for me to focus
And all our 270 early adopters who have supported us in the last 6 months.
The Australian Information Industry Association (AIIA) holds the iAwards each year with a separate award night for each state as well as one nationally. It aims to recognise and reward excellence in Australian innovation.
Entrants are judged by a panel of some 60 judges.
June is shaping up to be a very exciting month for OdataLink and Xero users.
As part of our continuous development and refinement process, we reworked our Models architecture, added many new endpoints for Xero Accounting models and added the brand new Xero Projects model.
These changes add an additional 12 endpoints and brings the total number of endpoints available for Xero organisations to 46.
May has been a very busy period for us. The updates focused more on cosmetic, usability and discoverability enhancements.
April’s set of new features centered around providing new endpoints for both MYOB and Xero.
For MYOB, we added the following new endpoints:
For Xero, we included the following new endpoints:
It is now possible to get live Xero data into Power BI and Excel using OdataLink.
This will allow you to start creating dashboards and reports using Microsoft Power BI and Excel using most data endpoints available in Xero.
OdataLink is now officially approved by MYOB after they reviewed and confirmed OdataLink for listing on the MYOB App Marketplace for both MYOB AccountRight Live and MYOB Essentials.
OdataLink now has a Free Edition which allows you to create custom reports and dashboards using MYOB AccountRight Live and MYOB Essentials in Power BI and Excel.
