Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from COINCAP ERP to Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a structural migration that requires vendor-assisted data extraction because COINCAP exposes no documented public REST API. We coordinate directly with the customer's COINCAP account manager to define export formats for ledgers, inventory masters, and open transactions, then load the extracted data into D365 through Business Central's REST API or Finance and Operations data management framework. COINCAP's voucher-based accounting model (all transactions stored as vouchers) maps to D365's general journal entry and transactional document model, requiring a date-range scoped transform. Multi-level BOM hierarchies must be flattened before loading into the D365 item master because D365 does not natively support nested production BOMs at the same depth as COINCAP's manufacturing module. Indian GST compliance configurations require explicit re-implementation in D365 because tax setup does not migrate. COINCAP custom fields and industry-vertical extensions are invisible without direct COINCAP schema discovery; we conduct a vendor-assisted schema audit before building the mapping matrix. We do not migrate workflows, automations, or on-premise infrastructure configurations. These require rebuild in D365 and are documented in the migration handoff package.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

COINCAP ERP logo

COINCAP ERP

What's pushing teams away

  • Companies evaluating modern cloud-first ERPs cite scalability constraints and limited mobile-first access as reasons to move off on-premise or hybrid COINCAP deployments.
  • G2 lists NetSuite, Sage Intacct, and Acumatica as top alternatives, indicating customers are leaving COINCAP for globally-supported platforms with broader ecosystem integrations and API access.
  • On-premise deployment requires internal IT resources for maintenance, backups, and version upgrades—businesses without dedicated IT staff find this ongoing overhead a driver to migrate to managed SaaS alternatives.

Choosing

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central logo

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

What's pulling them in

  • Deep integration with Microsoft 365, Power BI, and Power Platform means organizations already on the Microsoft stack get identity, reporting, and workflow continuity out of the box.
  • Unified financials, sales, service, and operations replace multiple disconnected systems — users report that data entered once flows through purchase orders, invoicing, and approvals without manual re-entry.
  • Copilot AI features (predictive analytics, embedded business intelligence) are included in both Essentials and Premium tiers, addressing demand for AI without separate module purchases.
  • Named-user licensing with no concurrent model appeals to organizations that want predictable per-seat costs even if some users access the system infrequently.
  • Strong partner ecosystem with certified NAV-to-Business Central migration specialists gives mid-market companies confidence the cutover from legacy Navision can be executed reliably.

Object mapping

How COINCAP ERP objects map to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Each row shows how a COINCAP ERP object lands in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.

COINCAP ERP

Chart of Accounts

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

G/L Account (Business Central) or Main Account (Finance and Operations)

1:1
Mapping required

COINCAP ERP organises financial accounts within its finance module. We extract the full account hierarchy, account type, and posting group assignments and map them to D365's G/L Account structure. Indian tax codes (GST/SGST/CGST) are extracted as separate tax component mappings rather than embedded in the account code. We preserve the COINCAP account code as a reference field in D365's G/L Entry No. or External Document No. for audit trail continuity. D365's account structure supports dimensions (Cost Center, Department, Division) that COINCAP may not have; we map COINCAP cost-center assignments to D365 DefaultDimension during import.

COINCAP ERP

Customer Master

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Customer

1:1
Fully supported

Party master records for customers live in COINCAP's sales module. We extract customer name, GST registration number (GSTIN), address details, payment terms, credit limit, and salesperson assignment. COINCAP may store multiple addresses per customer (billing, shipping, plant); D365 Customer supports one primary address with additional address records via the Address subtable. We map the COINCAP primary address to D365's Address field and flag any secondary addresses for manual entry post-migration or for the customer to map as related Address records.

COINCAP ERP

Vendor Master

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Vendor

1:1
Fully supported

Vendor master records in COINCAP's purchase module map to D365 Vendor. We extract vendor name, PAN and TAN references, GSTIN, address, payment terms, and bank details. Vendor-to-Customer cross-references (a vendor who is also a customer) must be identified during scoping because D365 maintains separate Customer and Vendor tables; these become two records with a cross-reference field populated. COINCAP's vendor-specific tax categories map to D365's Tax Business Subject configuration.

COINCAP ERP

Item Master

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Item (Business Central) or Released Product (Finance and Operations)

1:1
Fully supported

Item masters in COINCAP cover raw materials, semi-finished goods, and finished goods across the inventory module. We map item codes, descriptions, UOMs, pricing tiers, item category codes, and product type. COINCAP's inventory valuation method (standard cost, average cost, FIFO) maps to D365's Costing Method field. Stock-keeping unit tracking levels from COINCAP (none, serial, lot) map to D365's Item Tracking Code. Item reordering policies migrate as D365's Reorder Point or Reorder Quantity on the Item card.

COINCAP ERP

BOM Structure

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Production BOM / Bill of Materials

lossy
Fully supported

COINCAP manufacturing module BOMs may have multi-level nested hierarchies that D365 does not store identically. We flatten multi-level COINCAP BOMs into D365's single-level BOM with multiple BOM versions, or into D365's multi-level production route structure if the customer requires D365's production module for scheduling. We extract each BOM component's quantity per assembly, scrap percentage, and operation steps and map them to D365 BOM Lines and Production Order Routing. BOM version validity dates from COINCAP migrate to D365's Starting Date and Ending Date on BOM Version.

COINCAP ERP

Open AP Ledger

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Vendor Ledger Entries (Business Central) or Vendors Open Transactions (Finance and Operations)

1:1
Fully supported

Outstanding payables tracked in COINCAP's finance module are extracted as open vendor ledger entries with due dates, invoice numbers, amounts, currency codes, and vendor references. We load these as D365 Vendor Ledger Entries with Document Type = Invoice and Open = Yes. Aged trial-balance reconciliation is required before migration to confirm that COINCAP's open AP total matches D365's posted vendor ledger after import. Any COINCAP post-dated checks or payment advice records map to D365 Check and Payment Journal entries.

COINCAP ERP

Open AR Ledger

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Customer Ledger Entries (Business Central) or Customers Open Transactions (Finance and Operations)

1:1
Fully supported

Outstanding receivables from COINCAP's finance module migrate to D365 Customer Ledger Entries with Open = Yes. We extract invoice number, customer reference, due date, amount, and currency. COINCAP may track partial payments against invoices; D365 handles this through the Detailed Customer Ledger Entry subtable. Aged receivables reconciliation is required post-import to confirm totals match. Any credit notes or prepayment records in COINCAP map to D365 Document Type = Credit Memo or Prepayment entries.

COINCAP ERP

Transaction Vouchers

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

General Journal Lines or Transactional Documents (Sales Invoice, Purchase Invoice, etc.)

1:many
Fully supported

All posting transactions in COINCAP are stored as vouchers—sales invoices, purchase receipts, journal entries, debit notes, credit notes. We segment by COINCAP voucher type and map each segment to the corresponding D365 document: sales vouchers to Sales Invoice or General Journal, purchase vouchers to Purchase Invoice or General Journal, and pure journal vouchers to General Journal Lines. Date-range scoping is required because historical transaction volume can be large. Very large transaction histories may require batched migration with D365's data management framework import jobs.

COINCAP ERP

Users and Roles

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Users and Permission Sets (Business Central) or Security Roles (Finance and Operations)

1:1
Mapping required

COINCAP assigns users to roles that gate access to specific modules and functions. We extract user IDs, names, email addresses, and role assignments. D365 requires the customer's Azure Active Directory tenant to provision users before migration; we coordinate user provisioning with the customer's tenant admin. COINCAP role names are mapped to D365 Permission Sets or Security Roles by functional area (finance users get GL Accountant role, inventory users get Warehouse User role, etc.). Passwords and session tokens cannot be migrated and must be reset post-migration.

COINCAP ERP

Custom Fields

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Custom Fields / Custom Entities

1:1
Mapping required

COINCAP ERP deployments across 11 vertical markets frequently include module-specific custom fields that are not present in the base product. These are invisible without direct COINCAP schema discovery. We conduct a vendor-assisted schema audit to identify all custom field definitions, their data types, and the objects they extend. Each discovered custom field is then created as a D365 custom field on the corresponding table (Extension fields in Business Central, custom fields on the entity in Finance and Operations). Industry-specific custom fields in manufacturing, trading, or project verticals are documented separately in the migration handoff package with their COINCAP table.column reference.

COINCAP ERP

Document Attachments

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

None

1:1
Fully supported

COINCAP ERP may store scanned documents and attachments linked to transactions or master records. There is no documented public API endpoint for bulk attachment export. We flag attachment dependencies during discovery and present three options to the customer: manual re-upload post-migration (suitable for small volumes), a separate document-migration workstream with COINCAP vendor assistance and a custom file extraction routine, or accepting that attachments will not migrate. We do not perform custom vendor development to extract attachments as part of the standard migration scope.

COINCAP ERP

Fiscal Year and GST Configuration

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Fiscal Year Calendar and Tax Settings

lossy
Fully supported

COINCAP ERP includes Indian regulatory compliance configurations for GST, fiscal year setup, and Indian accounting conventions. These do not migrate automatically. We extract the COINCAP fiscal year definition and GST tax component structure (CGST rate, SGST rate, IGST rate, HSN code mappings) as a written configuration inventory. The customer's D365 administrator or a D365 implementation partner re-implements these as Tax Codes in D365's Tax engine and the Fiscal Year Calendar in General Ledger Setup. Indian states and Union Territory jurisdiction codes are mapped to D365 State/Territory fields.

Pair-specific challenges

  • No public API forces vendor-assisted data extraction

    COINCAP ERP does not expose a documented public REST API for bulk data extraction. All migration scoping requires vendor-assisted data pulls coordinated with Coincap Systems & Services Pvt. Ltd. in Mumbai. We define the export format (CSV, fixed-width, or database query) in collaboration with the COINCAP technical team before ingestion begins. This step adds two to four weeks of lead time to the migration project and requires the customer's active relationship with COINCAP support. We cannot begin schema mapping until COINCAP delivers the first data extract for review.

  • COINCAP schema is opaque without direct vendor engagement

    COINCAP's internal database schema is not publicly documented. Custom fields, module-specific extensions, and industry-vertical modifications are invisible to customers without direct COINCAP engagement. We conduct a schema audit in collaboration with COINCAP technical staff, mapping discovered columns to standard ERP object categories. Any unmapped columns are flagged for manual review before the migration window opens. Migrations that skip the schema audit risk discovering unmapped custom fields only after production import, requiring a partial re-migration.

  • Multi-level BOM flattening required for D365 manufacturing

    COINCAP manufacturing module BOMs can have nested hierarchies that D365's BOM structure does not preserve identically. We flatten multi-level BOMs into D365's single-level BOM with BOM version management or map them to D365's production route structure. The flattening process requires BOM complexity analysis during discovery; COINCAP deployments with more than three BOM nesting levels, alternative BOMs per shift or site, and configured scrap percentages require custom flattening logic that adds two to four weeks to the migration timeline.

  • GST compliance setup does not migrate

    Indian GST tax configurations built into COINCAP's finance module do not migrate to D365. COINCAP stores GST registration numbers (GSTIN), HSN code mappings, tax rates by state, and composition versus regular taxpayer flags in module-specific tables. We extract these as a written configuration inventory during migration, but the customer's D365 administrator or a D365 implementation partner must re-implement them as Tax Codes, Tax Groups, and HSN code tables in D365's Tax engine. Post-migration GST reconciliation must be verified before the first D365 GST return is filed.

  • Document attachments cannot be extracted via API

    Transaction attachments and scanned documents stored within COINCAP cannot be retrieved via a documented API. During discovery, we identify which transaction and master records have linked documents and present the customer with options: manual re-upload post-migration, a separate document-migration workstream with COINCAP vendor assistance, or accepting that attachments will not migrate. We do not perform custom vendor development to extract attachments as part of the standard migration scope. This must be agreed upon before migration begins.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful COINCAP ERP to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central data migration

  1. Discovery and COINCAP vendor coordination

    We audit the source COINCAP deployment across all active modules, identifying the full item master count, BOM complexity, open AP/AR ledger balance count, historical transaction volume by voucher type, and any active custom fields or industry-vertical extensions. We also initiate the COINCAP vendor engagement, coordinating with the customer's COINCAP account manager to define export formats, delivery timelines, and schema access. The discovery output is a written migration scope document, a COINCAP export request specification, and a D365 edition recommendation (Business Central for mid-market, Finance and Operations for enterprise manufacturing or multi-company consolidations).

  2. Schema audit and field-mapping matrix

    We conduct a vendor-assisted schema audit with COINCAP technical staff, mapping discovered database columns to standard ERP object categories. Every COINCAP custom field is identified, typed (string, numeric, date, lookup), and mapped to a D365 field or flagged as a D365 custom field requiring creation. The schema audit also surfaces BOM nesting depth, multi-address party records, and any COINCAP-specific fiscal year or tax configurations that are not in the base product. We build the field-mapping matrix from this audit output and share it with the customer's COINCAP team for validation before extraction begins.

  3. Data extraction and cleansing

    COINCAP delivers the agreed data export (typically CSV or database query results) covering the scoped objects. We profile the extracted data for duplicates, missing required fields, inconsistent address formats, inactive records linked to open balances, and items with inconsistent costing methods. Data cleansing runs as a parallel workstream to the schema audit. We generate exception reports and reconciliation simulations, not spot checks, to surface structural inconsistency before mapping. Teams that skip data profiling frequently encounter 10-30 percent record rejection on first import into D365.

  4. BOM flattening and voucher segmentation

    We transform COINCAP data into D365-native structures before loading. Multi-level BOMs are flattened into D365's BOM version model. Vouchers are segmented by type (sales, purchase, journal) and mapped to corresponding D365 document types. COINCAP's voucher numbering is preserved in D365's External Document No. or G/L Entry No. reference fields. COINCAP's open AP/AR ledger entries are loaded as Open = Yes records in D365, with aged trial-balance totals reconciled before the migration window opens. Any GSTINs, HSN codes, and tax rates are extracted to the configuration inventory document rather than loaded as data.

  5. D365 sandbox migration and validation

    We run a full migration into a D365 Sandbox environment (Business Central Sandbox or Finance and Operations development environment) using production-like data volume. The customer's finance team reconciles COINCAP totals against D365 sandbox totals for Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Inventory Value, and GL Trial Balance. Any mapping corrections are documented and applied to the production migration plan. The customer signs off the sandbox reconciliation before production migration begins.

  6. Production migration and cutover

    We run production migration in dependency order: G/L Accounts, Customers and Vendors, Items with BOMs, Open AP/AR ledgers, then historical transactions. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. We freeze COINCAP writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable D365 as the system of record. We deliver the GST configuration inventory, custom field mapping document, and workflow/automation rebuild handoff checklist. We do not rebuild COINCAP workflows, automations, or on-premise infrastructure configurations; these require rebuild in D365 and are documented separately for the customer's admin team.

  7. Post-migration hypercare and handoff

    We support a two-week hypercare window following go-live, during which we resolve any data reconciliation issues raised by the customer's team. We validate that GSTINs, tax rates, and fiscal year setup have been correctly re-implemented in D365 by the customer's administrator. We do not provide ongoing admin support, training, or D365 workflow rebuild as standard scope; these are separate engagements. The migration is complete when the customer's finance team confirms that D365 is the system of record and all scoped records have been reconciled.

Source

Strengths

  • Nine-module integrated suite covering finance, inventory, purchase, sales, and production within one database.
  • 100% guaranteed implementation commitment marketed as the primary customer assurance differentiator.
  • Domestic Indian vendor with Mumbai-based support and GST-compliant finance modules for Indian regulatory requirements.
  • COINCAP-III version signals active development and periodic product upgrades for existing customers.
  • Long customer retention—references spanning 25+ years suggest stable product-market fit for mid-market industrial companies.

Weaknesses

  • No publicly documented REST API or bulk export interface, making automated migration reliant on vendor-assisted data pulls.
  • On-premise deployment model requires customer-managed infrastructure, backups, and upgrade scheduling.
  • Limited visibility into COINCAP's internal schema outside of direct vendor engagement, complicating pre-migration audit.
  • Pricing and licensing terms are not published publicly, requiring direct sales contact for every evaluation.

Destination

Strengths

  • Tight integration with Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Teams, SharePoint) for users already in the Microsoft ecosystem.
  • Includes Copilot AI, predictive analytics, and embedded Power BI dashboards at no additional cost in both license tiers.
  • Supports multiple companies within a single tenant for holding-company or multi-entity organizational structures.
  • Open REST API v2.0 with OAuth 2.0 authentication and data entity abstraction layer for developer-friendly integrations.
  • Strong partner ecosystem specializing in NAV-to-Business Central migrations provides implementation confidence for legacy upgrades.

Weaknesses

  • Named-user licensing model means every active user account requires a paid license — no concurrent access model to reduce costs for occasional users.
  • SaaS-only deployment means no on-premises option; organizations requiring full data residency control may not have viable alternatives within Microsoft's stack.
  • Manufacturing module (Production Orders, routing, work centers) is only available on Premium tier, pushing cost-sensitive manufacturers to higher-priced plans.
  • Customization and extension development requires AL language knowledge and developer licenses, limiting what power users can do without a partner engagement.
  • Global pricing increases effective October 2024 and again October 2025 after five years of stable pricing, creating budget uncertainty for existing customers.

Data migration specifically takes six to ten weeks for COINCAP deployments with up to 50,000 item masters, single-level BOMs, and clean AP/AR ledgers under 5,000 open records. Full ERP migration including D365 configuration, GST re-implementation, and sandbox validation extends to fourteen to twenty-two weeks. The COINCAP vendor-assisted export process adds two to four weeks of lead time before schema discovery begins. Migrations with multi-level BOMs, large transaction histories, or Finance and Operations as the destination move to the longer timeline because of BOM flattening logic, data management framework configuration, and the Finance and Operations data entity mapping requirements.
