About
The accountant who moves your books.
I'm Michelle Duford, CPB. I help businesses move from one accounting system to another without losing their history, with custom migrations available
Based in Calgary, Alberta · Working with clients across Canada and the United States
Michelle Duford, CPB
Twenty years of accounting, backed by software development experience
I'm a Certified Professional Bookkeeper with more than 20 years of experience, and I also held a CPA designation held from 2007 to 2023. I know the accounting behind the data, not just the import screens.
Coupled with my background in software development I am uniquely qualified for custom migrations
That means what lands in QuickBooks Online makes sense to you and to your accountant: accounts that are mapped properly, balances that agree, and history you can trust.

ACCOUNTING MEETS CODE
I built the tool and can customise it to your needs.
Along with my accounting background, I hold a computer science degree. I developed the migration application I use on every project, so I understand it from the inside. Yes me, with my own brain!
That's why I can take on custom migrations. When your system, your data or your chart of accounts doesn't fit a standard import, I'm not stuck with someone else's template. I can adapt the tool to your situation, and if your software can export its data to CSV or Excel, it can be moved.

Developed the tool myself
Custom migrations
How I work
Three promises on every project.
NEVER OUTSOURCED
Your data stays with me
I handle your project myself from first call to handover. No offshore teams, no hand-offs.
PLAIN LANGUAGE
I explain what moved
You get a clear summary of what was migrated, how accounts were mapped and what to check, written so you and your accountant can follow it.
ACCURACY FIRST
Reconciled before handover
Totals are checked against your original system's reports before anything goes live.
Upon request I can also provide an workpaper for your accountant proving the migration balances.
After the move
Need bookkeeping once you're on QuickBooks Online?
Ledger and Logic is all about migrations. For ongoing monthly bookkeeping, or cleanup and catch-up work, I run two sister businesses.
