Overview
Moving from LOGIC ERP to Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a cross-platform ERP migration that requires overcoming the absence of a public API on the source side. LOGIC ERP holds data in style/color/size item variants, multi-location inventory, multi-currency ledgers, and India-specific TDS configurations. We extract via the platform's built-in export tools in chunked batches, transform India tax fields (TDS rate codes, HSN/SAC mappings) into their Microsoft Dynamics equivalents, and load through the destination's REST API or Data Management Framework. Opening stock balances, BOM stage sequences, and GSTIN party records are preserved with exact unit-of-measure validation. Workflows, automated approvals, and dashboard configurations do not migrate as code; we deliver a written inventory for the customer's admin to rebuild in Dynamics 365. LOGIC ERP's consultant dependency for non-standard configurations means the migration timeline coordinates closely with the target-side configuration schedule to prevent data overwrite after go-live.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a LOGIC 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.
LOGIC ERP
Inventory Items
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Item (Item Card)
1:1LOGIC ERP items with style/color/size variants and item matrices map to Dynamics 365 Business Central Item records with variant dimensions (Color, Size, Style) or as separate Item variants via the Item Variants feature depending on the customer's Business Central tier. We flatten LOGIC's variant structure into either a single item with dimensions or a parent-child item hierarchy, preserving barcodes, EAN codes, item images, and item sets. Item pricing tiers (multiple price lists from Professional tier) map to Business Central Sales Prices and Customer Price Groups.
LOGIC ERP
Party Masters
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Customer and Vendor
1:manyLOGIC ERP Party Masters are unified records covering both customers and vendors with GSTIN, location hierarchies, discount locks, and credit limits. We split these into separate Customer and Vendor records in Business Central, preserving the GSTIN as the Tax Registration Number, location addresses, and party-wise billing constraints. Credit limits and payment terms transfer to the respective Customer or Vendor card.
LOGIC ERP
Sales Orders and Invoices
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Sales Order and Sales Invoice
1:1LOGIC ERP sales transactions with line items, taxes, and payment modes map to Business Central Sales Order and Sales Invoice. The salesman/agent assignment maps to the Salesperson_Purchaser code field. Payment terms, shipping terms, and GST amounts transfer directly. Any UPI, cash, or card payment mode references from POS migrate as payment journal entries attached to the invoice.
LOGIC ERP
Purchase Orders
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Purchase Order and Vendor Invoice
1:1Purchase Orders including reorder-level-driven POs and supplier/item defaults map to Business Central Purchase Order. Pre-set item-wise orders are preserved with their item defaults. TDS deductions at the line level map to Business Central's Tax Liable and Withholding Tax code fields, though TDS configuration in Business Central requires custom tax setup rather than a native TDS module.
LOGIC ERP
Chart of Accounts / GL
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
G/L Account
1:1LOGIC ERP GL accounts with grouping structures, cost centres, and cost elements transfer directly to Business Central G/L Accounts. Each LOGIC ERP account group maps to a Business Central Account Category, and cost centres become Dimensions that the customer configures in the destination. TDS configurations do not map universally; we flag them as custom tax code entries for the customer's India-specialist configuration.
LOGIC ERP
Bill of Materials (BOM)
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Production BOM and Item Routing
1:1LOGIC ERP BOMs with style-wise operation stages (Cutting, Stitching, Washing, Finishing) and material inputs map to Business Central Production BOM and Item Routing records. Each stage sequence is preserved as a routing operation with work centre and setup/run times. Subcontractor job-work stages flagged in LOGIC ERP are mapped to outside operation steps in the routing. Multi-level BOMs transfer level by level with the parent-to-component relationship intact.
LOGIC ERP
Stock / Opening Inventory
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Item Ledger Entry (Opening Balance)
1:1Opening stock records with exact units and warehouse locations map to Business Central Item Ledger Entries with positive quantities representing the opening balance. We validate each row for exact unit counts and correct unit-of-measure codes before import. Batch-level stock tracking from LOGIC ERP Ultimate tier maps to Business Central Item Tracking (Lot/Serial) entries. Total inventory value reconciles against the general ledger as a pre-import checkpoint.
LOGIC ERP
Manufacturing / Production Orders
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Production Order
1:1Production orders with work-in-progress stages map to Business Central Production Orders. The production order status (firm, released, finished) transfers directly. WIP values at each stage map to Business Central's capacity ledger entries and item ledger entries for the work-in-progress item. Subcontractor billing cycles from job-work stages are flagged for manual review as they vary by garment configuration.
LOGIC ERP
Multi-Currency Ledgers
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Currency and Exchange Rate
1:1Multiple currency management from LOGIC ERP Professional tier and above transfers to Business Central Currencies and Exchange Rate records. Per-transaction exchange rates are preserved in the Currency Exchange Rate table. We recommend reconciliation in Business Central for historical accuracy, as exchange rate precision and rounding at the ledger level may produce small variances.
LOGIC ERP
Point of Sale Transactions
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Posted Sales Receipt (POS Journal)
1:1POS receipts from LOGIC ERP including UPI, cash, and card payment modes, agent-level sales data, and customer feedback migrate as Posted Sales Transactions. Each receipt becomes a Sales Invoice or Cash Receipt Journal entry in Business Central, with the payment method preserved. POS configuration (register, shift, till) maps to Business Central Cash Document or Cash Flow forecast entries.
LOGIC ERP
Tax Configurations (TDS/GST)
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Tax Details (Custom TDS Setup)
lossyTDS rate structures, TDS reports, and HSN/SAC code associations are India-specific and do not map directly to Business Central's standard tax framework. We map TDS as a custom Withholding Tax code in Business Central, flag HSN/SAC mappings that cannot be expressed natively, and recommend a post-migration India-specialist review for any financial audit requirements. GSTIN validation on Customer and Vendor cards transfers as Tax Registration Number.
LOGIC ERP
Custom Fields / User-Defined Properties
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Custom Fields (Extension Fields)
lossyLOGIC ERP supports configurable defaults, discount locks, and item-wise rules rather than a traditional custom fields API. We map each rule as a named custom field on the relevant Business Central table (Item, Customer, Vendor, Sales Line) via a table extension, and flag any rule that cannot be expressed as a field or configuration for the customer's admin to resolve in the destination.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central gotchas
Named-user licensing has no concurrent-use relief
API rate limits throttle large-volume migrations
Historical posted transactions require selective migration scoping
NAV-to-Business Central cloud migration requires partner coordination
Custom fields and AL extensions require separate migration handling
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and data audit
We audit the source LOGIC ERP instance across modules in scope (Inventory, Sales, Purchasing, Manufacturing, GL), item count and variant complexity, party master count and GSTIN coverage, BOM depth and production order volume, and opening stock row count and unit-of-measure consistency. We assess the export method availability and any prior experience with server-side exports via the LOGIC ERP consultant. This output is a written migration scope with record counts per object, a preliminary field mapping, and a TDS/GST configuration inventory that determines the India-specialist handoff scope in the destination.
Export sequencing and chunk planning
Since LOGIC ERP has no API, we design the export sequencing plan before any extraction begins. Large datasets are divided into batches by date range, location, item category, or party type to avoid export UI timeouts. We request the LOGIC ERP implementation consultant to generate server-side exports for datasets exceeding 50,000 rows. Each export batch is validated for row count and checksum totals before transformation begins, and failed or stalled batches are retried with a smaller window or escalated to the consultant.
Schema design and India tax configuration
We design the destination schema in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central or Finance. This includes Item variants and dimensions, Customer and Vendor cards with GSTIN as Tax Registration Number, G/L Accounts with Dimensions, Production BOM and Routings, and Tax codes for GST and custom TDS Withholding codes. TDS configurations are flagged as custom setup items requiring a post-migration India-specialist review. Schema is deployed into a Sandbox environment first for validation against the migrated data.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Business Central Sandbox using production-like data volume. The customer's finance lead reconciles record counts (Items in, Customers in, Vendors in, Opening Stock in, BOMs in), spot-checks 30-50 records against the LOGIC ERP source, and validates that opening stock value reconciles to the general ledger. Any mapping corrections and data quality issues are resolved in the Sandbox before production migration begins.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: G/L Accounts first, then Items with variants, then Customers and Vendors with GSTIN and location data, then Sales and Purchase transactions, then Production BOMs and Routings, then Opening Stock (with balance sheet reconciliation), then Production Orders, then POS transactions. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Large inventory imports use Business Central's data migration framework or API batch endpoints with rate-limit handling.
Cutover, validation, and admin handoff
We freeze LOGIC ERP writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Dynamics 365 as the system of record. We deliver the TDS/GST configuration inventory and BOM routing handoff document to the customer's admin team for India-specialist review. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve any reconciliation issues. Workflows, automated approvals, and LOGIC ERP-specific dashboard configurations do not migrate; the written inventory is handed off for the customer's Dynamics 365 partner or admin to rebuild.
