Overview
Alpha-E GSoft-POS stores customer records, item masters, sales transactions, and accounting data in a local SQL database or proprietary export format with no published REST API. Acumatica exposes a versioned REST and SOAP API for all entities — Customer, InventoryItem, ARInvoice, Vendor — and enforces India GST compliance through GST Details on each party record and tax categories on inventory items. The migration extracts GSoft records from database tables or CSV/XLS exports, transforms them into Acumatica's import-ready format, and loads them through Acumatica's Import by Scenario framework. We preserve original creation timestamps on customers and items as custom datetime fields because Acumatica stamps CreatedDate at import time. GSTIN values are validated and written to the GST Details section of each Customer and Vendor record. Loyalty program configuration, barcode prefix schemes, and GSoft-specific discount rules have no direct Acumatica equivalent — we export these definitions as a rebuild reference and flag them for manual setup in Acumatica's Generic Inquiries or custom fields. Open AR invoices are loaded as batched documents with original invoice numbers, amounts, and dates; their settlement history is linked via Payments application after migration.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Alpha-E GSoft-POS object lands in Acumatica, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Customer
Acumatica
Customer
1:1GSoft customer records map directly to Acumatica Customer entities. GSTIN moves to the GST Details tab; ContactName maps to Acumatica's Contact record attached to the Customer. GSoft's customer code becomes Acumatica's CustomerCD; GSoft's opening balance becomes a beginning balance document in Acumatica's AR register.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Vendor / Supplier
Acumatica
Vendor
1:1GSoft vendor records map to Acumatica Vendor entities with the vendor code used as VendorCD. The GSTIN from GSoft is written to the Vendor's GST Details tab for India GST compliance. PAN numbers and TDS deduction rate fields from GSoft transfer to Acumatica's Vendor tax settings. Additional vendor attributes such as payment terms and credit limits are mapped to corresponding Vendor fields or preserved as custom fields if no direct Acumatica equivalent exists.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Item Master
Acumatica
InventoryItem
1:1GSoft item records map to Acumatica InventoryItem with ItemCD as the key. GSoft's barcode number maps to the Manufacturer's Item Nbr field for barcode scanning in Acumatica's PO and SO screens. InventoryItem Type (Stock / Non-Stock / Service) is inferred from GSoft item category.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Price List
Acumatica
SalesPrice
1:1GSoft item-wise rate masters map to Acumatica SalesPrice records keyed by CustomerClass and InventoryItem. GSoft's multiple price lists — such as retail, wholesale, and MRP tiers — become separate SalesPrice records with appropriate PriceCode assignments in Acumatica's Pricing Engine. Each price list from GSoft is translated into a corresponding price schedule with effective dates and customer-specific or class-level targeting preserved during migration.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Category / Group Master
Acumatica
Item Class
1:1GSoft item category groups map to Acumatica Item Class entities with each Item Class defining default tax category and posting settings. GSoft's GST rate group is translated to an Acumatica Tax Category ID during migration. The item category hierarchy from GSoft is preserved as nested Item Classes in Acumatica, maintaining the same grouping logic for inventory reporting and pricing rules.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Sales Bill / Invoice
Acumatica
ARInvoice
1:1GSoft sales bills migrate as Acumatica ARInvoice documents. Original GSoft bill number is stored in Acumatica's ReferenceNbr field. GSoft bill date becomes ARInvoice DocDate. Line items with item code, quantity, and rate map to Acumatica's ARTran grid. Open unpaid bills migrate with a status of Open; paid bills migrate as historical records.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Purchase Bill
Acumatica
APInvoice
1:1GSoft purchase bills migrate as Acumatica APInvoice documents using the same ReferenceNbr and DocDate mapping pattern as sales invoices. The VendorGSTIN is linked from the mapped Vendor record. Unpaid purchase bills retain their open status in the Acumatica AP register, while paid bills are migrated as closed historical documents. Line items map to APTran with item code, quantity, and rate preserved.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Receipt / Payment
Acumatica
ARPayment
1:1GSoft customer receipts migrate as Acumatica ARPayment documents. The linked ARInvoice is matched by the GSoft invoice reference number stored in Acumatica's ReferenceNbr field. Receipt date and amount are preserved from the source; the payment method (cash, cheque, UPI) maps to the corresponding Acumatica CashAccount. Each ARPayment is applied to the matched ARInvoice through Acumatica's payment application feature.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Day Close / Cash Report
Acumatica
Journal Transaction (Summary)
1:1GSoft day-close cash reports do not map to a native Acumatica entity. We migrate the net cash total as a Summary record in a custom CashRecon table, preserving GSoft's branch-wise day-close figures for audit purposes. The detail line items (individual receipts) are migrated separately as ARPayment records.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Loyalty Program / Scheme
Acumatica
No equivalent
1:1GSoft loyalty schemes (points per ₹100, tier-based discounts, happy-hour pricing) have no Acumatica native equivalent. We export the scheme definitions — point value, tier thresholds, validity period — as a structured reference document for your Acumatica admin to configure in Acumatica's Rewards module or custom fields. Historical point balances are preserved as a reference field on Customer records.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Salesman / Staff
Acumatica
Employee
1:1GSoft salesman records map to Acumatica Employee entities. Commission rate from GSoft is preserved as a custom field on Employee since Acumatica's base Employee does not have a native commission rate field. Salesman-wise sales reports in GSoft can be rebuilt from Acumatica's Salesperson dimension on ARInvoice.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Branch / Store
Acumatica
Branch / Warehouse
1:1GSoft's chain store branches map to Acumatica Branch entities for financial reporting and Warehouse entities for inventory. Each GSoft branch code becomes an Acumatica BranchCD and a corresponding WarehouseCD. Branch-level stock figures from GSoft are loaded into Acumatica's SiteInventory table.
Alpha-E GSoft-POS
Barcode / Item Barcode Mapping
Acumatica
InventoryItem (Manufacturer Item Nbr)
1:1GSoft barcode prefixes and item-barcode mappings map to the Manufacturer's Item Nbr field on Acumatica InventoryItem. GSoft's barcode prefix scheme (used for label generation) is noted as a custom field; barcode label formatting must be rebuilt in Acumatica's label printing setup.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Extract data from GSoft — direct database access or multi-file screen exports
Before mapping begins, FlitStack connects to the GSoft on-premises environment to extract all relevant data. If GSoft uses a SQL Server backend, we run targeted SELECT queries against the customer, item, sales, and receipt tables to produce clean CSVs. If direct DB access is unavailable, we provide step-by-step export instructions for each GSoft module screen and verify column headers and data types from the exported files. We document any GSoft version-specific table structures and flag fields that exist in the database but not in the standard export interface.
Cleanse and validate data — GSTIN, duplicate codes, encoding issues
We run a data quality pass across all exported files before any transformation. GSTIN values are validated against the GSTN API format. Customer codes and item codes are checked for duplicates and encoding inconsistencies (common in GSoft's Indian-language character handling). Missing required fields for Acumatica — such as CustomerClass on Customer or ItemStatus on InventoryItem — are resolved using GSoft category data or flagged for Acumatica setup. A data quality report is delivered to the client before the Acumatica schema is configured.
Configure Acumatica schema — custom fields, GST Details, Item Classes, Warehouses
We set up the Acumatica side before data lands. This includes creating Item Class entities mapped from GSoft item categories, configuring the GST Registration Type on Customer Class, adding custom datetime fields for GSoft create dates and loyalty balances, and creating Warehouse and Branch entities for each GSoft branch. GST Details tab configuration for each Customer and Vendor is prepared so that validated GSTIN values can be written directly during import. We deliver a schema setup checklist that the Acumatica admin can complete or request FlitStack to configure via the API.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff for customers and items
A representative slice — typically 200–500 records covering customers from each GSoft category, 100 inventory items across multiple categories, and 20–30 open AR invoices — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff comparing GSoft source values against Acumatica destination fields so the client can verify GSTIN mapping, item category assignment, and AR invoice status before the full run commits. Any mapping corrections are applied to the transformation rules before the full migration proceeds.
Full migration run with delta-pickup window and one-click rollback
All customer, vendor, inventory, price list, and open document records migrate into Acumatica. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any new or modified GSoft records during the cutover period. Every operation is written to an audit log so the client can trace any record back to its GSoft source. If reconciliation fails — for example, if the AR aging report shows an unexpected balance — one-click rollback reverts all Acumatica records to the pre-migration state so the migration can be re-run with corrected rules.
