Moving from SAP Business One

Your current software stays untouched during the switch: you bring your data over, you check it, then you switch.

1

Export your lists

From SAP Business One, export your business partner (customers, suppliers) and item lists to Excel or CSV — your SAP partner can help.

2

Import them in a few clicks

Almawarid's import wizard reads Excel (.xlsx) and CSV files, recognises column headers in French, English and Arabic, lets you map each column and offers a downloadable Excel template — for customers, suppliers and products.

3

Bring over your invoicing history

Invoices, pro forma invoices, quotes and delivery notes can be bulk-imported from Excel or CSV (Entreprise plan): lines are grouped by document number and each customer is matched by tax ID (NIF), phone, e-mail or name.

4

Record purchases without retyping

Drop a supplier invoice or delivery note as a PDF: the wizard reads its lines and prepares the purchase; nothing is saved until you confirm.

5

Or let the team do it

Send your exports (Excel, CSV, PDF) by WhatsApp or e-mail: the team brings over customers, products, suppliers and employees, then checks the totals with you before go-live.
