Migrate your daftra data
All-in-one cloud ERP for SMBs in MENA with integrated CRM, HRM, accounting, inventory, and workflow modules under one subscription.
In its favor
Why people choose daftra
The signal that keeps daftra on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Comprehensive module coverage under one subscription — CRM, HRM, Accounting, Inventory, and Operations are included rather than sold as separate add-ons.
Arabic-first interface with bilingual support makes Daftra a natural fit for MENA-based teams that require Arabic-language workflows and documentation.
Subscription pricing in Saudi Riyal at three tiers (95/155/225 SAR/month) is accessible for SMBs that cannot absorb annual USD pricing from global ERP vendors.
Workflow management with dynamic fields and cross-module linking lets service businesses automate processes without writing code.
Multi-channel support covering phone, email, portal, and WhatsApp provides accessible customer service for non-technical users.
Multi-module complexity leads to feature gaps within each individual module — customers who need deep accounting or deep HRM report Daftra's capabilities feel shallower than specialized alternatives.
Support responsiveness varies significantly; users report long resolution times for technical issues outside standard business hours.
Customization limits on reports and dashboards frustrate power users who need advanced financial reporting or KPI visualization.
Platform lacks transparent public API documentation, making it difficult for technical teams to build custom integrations or export data programmatically without vendor assistance.

What gets migrated
daftra object support
Object-by-object support for daftra migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Clients
Fully supportedClient records in Daftra include contact details, follow-up history, memberships, points, and insurance references. We migrate all standard client fields and preserve Client Follow-Up activity logs as a timestamped child record set.
Products & Services
Fully supportedDaftra exports Products and Services via a documented UI export. We read the product catalog including pricing tiers, SKU, stock levels, and associated supplier links. Custom fields on products are supported via mapping.
Invoices
Mapping requiredInvoices carry line items, taxes, installment schedules, and sales commission assignments. Custom fields on invoices are user-defined and require field-level mapping. We preserve the invoice balance and payment history separately from the invoice itself.
Expenses
Fully supportedExpense records include amount, category, date, and attachment references. We migrate expenses against the Chart of Accounts. Recurring expense patterns are preserved as a flag on the expense record.
Chart of Accounts
Fully supportedDaftra's Chart of Accounts is a flat list with account type (asset, liability, revenue, expense). We load accounts in account code order to respect hierarchical posting order. Sub-account relationships require pre-migration extraction from Daftra's export.
Cost Centers
Mapping requiredCost Centers in Daftra are used for expense attribution across departments or projects. The linking between Cost Centers and individual transactions requires field-level extraction since Daftra's export does not flatten this relationship by default.
Employees
Mapping requiredEmployee records include Organizational Structure placement, Contracts, Attendance, and Payroll. Daftra stores Compensation history as a time-series within the employee record. We extract each payroll period as a separate row to preserve historical pay data. Effective-dated changes are preserved by pay period.
Assets
Mapping requiredFixed Assets in Daftra include custom fields added per-asset. Asset depreciation schedules require extraction from the Assets module separately from the asset master record. Custom fields on assets are mapped individually.
Work Orders
Fully supportedWork Orders in Daftra link to Clients, Employees, and Products. We preserve the full workflow stage history and any attached files or notes. Booking records follow the same structure and are migrated in parallel.
Bookings/Reservations
Fully supportedReservation Files in Daftra are treated as a separate workflow object with PNR-style file management, status tracking, and appointment scheduling. We migrate the reservation file with its activity log intact.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredDaftra supports custom fields on Invoices, Assets, and Workflows. Custom field definitions vary by object and must be enumerated before migration. We read field type, required flag, and options list, then apply them at the destination before populating records.
Cheque Cycle
Mapping requiredDaftra tracks cheques through issue, deposit, and return stages. The cheque cycle is tied to both the Chart of Accounts and specific invoice/payment records. We extract the full cycle history and link each stage to its originating transaction.
