Data Migration from Quickbooks desktop to Business Central

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I was using Business Central extension to migrate QB data. I have successfully exported data in .zip file using Microsoft Data Exporter Tool and uploaded this file in extension assisted setup. By clicking next and finishing the setup, data is imported successfully. customers, vendors, items and G/L accounts are imported 100% correctly but I am unable to get my invoices into the business central. There is nothing in sales invoices list.

Can any one please help me in this?

As Microsoft says that they import all QB sales and purchase invoices into BC unposted. Am I wrong in mapping the sales and Purchase accounts in extension assisted setup?

How can I do correct mapping of accounts?

Can anybody please help me in this?

    If you’re encountering missing invoices in Business Central after migrating data from QuickBooks, it might help to try Skyvia. It can assist with troubleshooting and setting up the integration process effectively.

    Nishat, 

    The invoices are there. Did you bring in the beginning balances yet? Once you complete the total QB import you will be able to see everything. They will not show up in the Sales invoice section, they will be under customer and vendors with balances. Like you see here. pastedimage1598903974243v1.png

    With the QB migration the data doesn't match 100%. You will need to edit and make sure the information is correct. Items will not come over correct as well. The numbering will be different as well. 

    Please let me know if you have more question as my consulting firm is currently writing up issues related to the QB migration and the issues related to it.

    Hi Nishat,

    With the QuickBook Data Migration Extension there is a limitation in regards to documents: You can only import open documents for customers and vendors. Please see more information here:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../ui-extensions-quickbooks-data-migration

    You state that no sales invoices are available in Business Central. Do you have open entries in QuickBooks? If yes, then those should be migrated by the extension. If they are closed in QuickBooks they will not be migrated to Business Central by the extension.

    Can you please check, if the entries in QuickBooks are open, or not?
