Migrate your Xentral ERP data

Xentral stores address records as a unified Address object used for both customers and vendors. We map this 1:1 and preserve custom Address fields configured in System Settings. Tax IDs and payment terms carry over as standard properties.

Articles are Xentral's product master data object, supporting custom fields, multilingual labels, and item-specific pricing rules. We export Articles with all configured custom fields and preserve the article number as the primary key for downstream mapping.

Sales Orders in Xentral include line items, status, assigned warehouse, and shipping information. We preserve the original order number, creation date, and all document associations (invoices, delivery notes) at migration time.

Purchase Orders capture procurement records with vendor assignments, expected delivery dates, and received quantities. We map open and closed PO records, preserving the po_number field and linking them to their corresponding incoming goods records.

Xentral generates both AR and AP invoices as document objects. We preserve document numbers, dates, and amounts. Multi-currency invoices require exchange rate mapping at the destination. PDF attachments are exported as binary blobs alongside the record.

Stock levels, warehouse assignments, and batch/serial information are stored per Article. Real-time stock snapshots during migration require a freeze period. Batch tracking fields vary by warehouse configuration and may need custom mapping logic.

Xentral's accounting module stores the chart of accounts, journal entries, and bank account connections. We map account codes and names, but tax code configurations and cost centre assignments must be validated against the destination's accounting rules.

Projects in Xentral can be linked to orders, invoices, and custom fields. We export project records with their assigned custom fields, but project-level task dependencies and time entries require separate mapping review.

Xentral supports custom fields for Articles, Addresses, and Projects only. Custom Object creation is not a native feature. We export custom field values as properties, but the field definitions themselves must be manually re-created at the destination.

Delivery notes and credit memos are document-type objects tied to parent orders or invoices. We preserve the document hierarchy during migration. PDF rendering of documents is exported separately from structured data.

Workflows configured in Xentral Flows are automation rules stored in the Xentral Connect middleware layer. These are not exposed via the standard REST API and cannot be exported. We document which workflows were active and provide a requirements spec for re-implementation at the destination.

File attachments linked to orders, articles, and addresses are accessible via the API and can be downloaded and re-uploaded to the destination. We preserve the original filename and association during migration.
