What our client Says
Why ERP to Xero Migration Requires More Than Data Transfer
ERP systems often manage far more than accounting. Your existing software may contain multiple companies, departments, cost centres, inventory, projects, approval processes and years of financial transactions.
During an ERP to Xero Migration, these records must be reviewed carefully because Xero uses a different accounting structure. Our team helps identify what should move, how the data should be organised and which business functions may need connected applications.
Move
Transfer agreed financial records, account balances and historical transactions from your ERP system into Xero.
Redesign
Map your existing chart of accounts, departments, cost centres and reporting requirements into a practical Xero structure.
Connect
Identify suitable applications for specialist functions such as inventory, purchasing, project management and group reporting.
What Financial Data Can Be Migrated From ERP to Xero?
Our ERP to Xero Data Migration services cover a wide range of financial records. The exact information we can transfer depends on your existing ERP system, data quality, available exports and the historical period required.
Chart of Accounts
Review and map your existing general ledger accounts into a suitable Xero chart of accounts while maintaining the required accounting classifications.
Customers and Suppliers
Transfer customer and supplier records, including the contact details needed for ongoing accounting and historical transactions.
Historical Transactions
Migrate agreed periods of financial history to support previous-year reporting, comparisons and access to past accounting activity.
Sales Invoices and Credit Notes
Transfer historical and outstanding customer invoices and credit notes using the available source records.
Purchase Bills and Supplier Credits
Migrate supplier bills, purchase credits and outstanding liabilities into the appropriate Xero accounts.
Manual Journals
Transfer relevant journal entries to maintain the agreed historical accounting records and financial balances.
Bank and Credit Card Transactions
Move historical bank and credit card activity, with reconciliation against the agreed source records.
Fixed Assets
Review fixed asset balances and supporting records to determine the appropriate opening position and available asset information in Xero.
Multi-Currency Transactions
Assess foreign currency transactions, exchange rates and balances before determining the appropriate migration treatment in Xero.
Accounts Receivable and Payable
Transfer and reconcile outstanding customer and supplier balances against the source ERP reports.
How ERP Accounting Structures Are Mapped to Xero
An important part of ERP to Xero Conversion is deciding how your existing accounting structure should work in Xero.
ERP platforms often support detailed reporting, operational processes and multiple business functions. Xero handles some of these requirements differently, so copying every ERP field or account code may not produce a useful accounting system.
At eCloud Experts, we review your financial structure and reporting needs before preparing the data mapping and Xero setup.
01
Departments, Cost Centres and Locations
We assess your existing reporting categories and determine how departments, cost centres and locations can be represented using suitable Xero tracking categories or reporting arrangements.
02
Inventory and Warehousing
Advanced stock control, multiple warehouses and manufacturing processes may require a dedicated inventory application connected to Xero.
03
Purchasing and Approvals
We review your purchasing and approval processes to determine whether Xero or a suitable connected application can support the required workflow.
04
Group and Multi-Entity Reporting
Where businesses operate through several legal entities, we assess separate Xero organisations and suitable options for consolidated financial reporting.
05
Projects and Job Costing
We review project accounting requirements and determine how relevant financial information can be managed through Xero or connected project applications.
06
CRM and Operational Data
Not all customer, product or operational records belong in Xero. We identify the information needed for accounting and what should remain in other business systems.
Choose the Right ERP to Xero Migration Approach
Not every business needs the same amount of historical data in Xero. Our ERP to Xero Migration Services offer different approaches based on your reporting needs, available records, business structure and budget.Not every company needs the same migration.
We help you choose a migration approach based on your reporting requirements, available data and budget.
