From manual complexity to scalable control

How Revelop transformed with MYOB Acumatica + Velixo

Fifteen years ago, Revelop was an emerging property development firm with ambitious objectives. Today, the organisation owns and manages more than 80 properties throughout Australia, supports over 1,800 tenants, and continues to expand its development pipeline valued at $1 billion.

This growth is the result of strategic planning and the adoption of scalable systems—beginning with MYOB Acumatica and later incorporating Velixo for integrated reporting solutions.

According to Head of Finance Paul Shrestha, "Revelop has expanded fivefold since we implemented the MYOB Acumatica platform, and it has scaled efficiently alongside our growth."

Transitioning from manual risk management

When Paul joined Revelop in 2017, the company manually managed more than 100 entities via an external tax agent. While this process was effective during the early stages, it proved unsustainable as operations expanded. Financial transparency was restricted, reporting cycles were prolonged, and validating figures required frequent verification.

Bringing finance operations in-house demanded more than a basic accounting solution; it necessitated a robust platform capable of managing complex inter-entity transactions, increased volumes, and future acquisitions.

"The demonstration marked the beginning—we have not looked back since," Paul reflects.

MYOB Acumatica delivered the necessary control and scalability from the outset.

Establishing a central source of truth

As Revelop expanded, transaction volumes increased significantly. With MYOB Acumatica, the organisation streamlined high-volume invoice processing, automated accounts payable, and directly integrated property management systems into the ERP framework.

The impact was immediate.

"MYOB Acumatica has saved us weeks of work, and having all financial data centralised gives us confidence in our numbers," Paul notes.

Centralised management also extended to payroll and compliance as the team grew nationally.

“With staff across Australia, MYOB Acumatica ensures proper calculation of employee tax rates,” Paul adds.

The results include reduced manual intervention, decreased risk, and enhanced governance within a complex multi-entity environment.

Advancing reporting capabilities with Velixo

As the company matured, reporting demands increased, particularly for funders and development stakeholders. Manual reporting compilation became impractical.

Through Velixo integration, Revelop connected Excel directly to live ERP data, constructing a scalable suite of financial reports as new entities were added.

This transition replaced weeks of manual preparation with real-time insights.

Previously, preparing funder reports was a lengthy process; now, as Paul states, "it can be accomplished with a single click."

Beyond efficiency improvements, visibility has significantly enhanced performance monitoring.

“With MYOB Acumatica, we can evaluate holding costs on new development projects and compare them against previous years. This capability has been invaluable,” he remarks.

Most importantly, organisational confidence in financial accuracy has been reinforced.

“Overall, we are highly satisfied with MYOB Acumatica and Velixo’s reporting capabilities, which assure us that the information presented to internal and external stakeholders is accurate.”

Foundations for sustained growth

Revelop's trajectory remains progressive, with major acquisitions and new developments ongoing. The finance function must continue scaling without unnecessary complexity.

The integration of MYOB Acumatica and Velixo delivers operational efficiency, control, transparency, and supports continued expansion without exceeding system limitations.

For organisations managing multi-entity growth, sophisticated reporting requirements, and increasing stakeholder expectations, Revelop’s experience demonstrates that scalable ERP foundations combined with seamless Excel reporting not only support growth but actively facilitate it.

Getting started with Velixo

If your finance team frequently exports MYOB Acumatica data into Excel as part of the reporting cycle, exploring the integration between the two platforms may prove beneficial.
