Moving off what you run today

Most businesses we work with are not starting from nothing. They are leaving spreadsheets, an accounting package that stopped fitting, or an ERP nobody maintains any more.

From spreadsheets

The most common starting point. The work is less technical than organisational: agreeing one version of each master record before anything is loaded.

From an accounting package

Tally, QuickBooks, Xero and similar. Financial history is usually clean; the gap is everything operational that lived outside the package.

From a legacy ERP

Data is structured but often carries a decade of workarounds. The decision is which of those to bring and which to leave behind.

Between platforms

Consolidating branches or entities onto one system. Chart of accounts alignment usually takes longer than the migration itself.

How a migration runs

Reconciliation before go-live, always. It has never been the popular call and never the wrong one.

Stage What happens Who signs it off
1. Audit We profile your existing data and report what is duplicated, dormant or unreconciled Us, shared with you
2. Decide Agree what migrates, what is archived and what is retired You
3. Clean Deduplicate and complete masters, in your existing system where possible You, with our templates
4. Map Field-level mapping from source to target, documented Us
5. Test load Full load into a test environment, never straight to production Us
6. Reconcile Trial balance to sub-ledgers, stock to valuation, line by line Your finance team, by name

ERP migration from the system you have to the one you need

Migration is two projects in one: the new system has to be implemented, and the old system's data and habits have to be carried across without carrying across the problems. Qatar companies migrate from Tally, QuickBooks, Sage, old Microsoft and Oracle products, unsupported local ERPs and spreadsheets, and from one modern platform to another when the business outgrows it. The migration path is the same: assess, map, clean, load, reconcile, run in parallel, cut over.

We migrate into Zoho, Odoo and ERPNext, and between them. Master data is deduplicated across Arabic and English names; balances, receivables and payables are loaded by document; stock is loaded with cost by warehouse and lot; open orders, contracts and projects are carried in flight; history is migrated or summarised as finance decides. Every load is reconciled against the source and signed off before cut-over, and the same scripts run the final load.

Cut-over is timed to a month-end or year-end, with a parallel run for finance and stock, integrations re-pointed and tested, and the old system kept read-only for reference. Support continues through the first close on the new platform.

Straight answers

Questions we are asked

Tally, QuickBooks, Sage, older Microsoft and Oracle products, local ERPs, custom databases, spreadsheets, and other modern platforms.

Opening balances and open documents always; transaction history as far back as finance requires.

Every load is reconciled to the source by trial balance, document and stock, and signed off before cut-over.

Yes, and we recommend it for one close.

At a month-end or year-end, avoiding Ramadan and peak season.

Four to ten weeks as part of implementation.
