Xero to ERPNext
migration, reconciled.
Contacts, accounts and invoices on one system — Indian GST and e-invoicing native, with no add-on subscriptions.
For finance and operations teams leaving Xero: a written mapping, a reconciled test load and a planned cut-over, with your Xero books kept as a read-only archive.
What comes across, and what stays behind.
The assessment determines what moves into ERPNext, what remains in Xero as a read-only archive, and what must be rebuilt. Data history, audit needs, integrations and reconciliation controls drive that decision.

Why people leave Xero.
In India, Xero's compliance layer comes from add-on apps — each another subscription and integration to re-verify when a rule changes.
Get a written planHow long does a Xero to ERPNext migration take?
A few weeks from start to go-live for a typical mid-market operator, with the cut-over happening in a single day. Most of the time is data preparation — cleaning exports, mapping accounts and items, and validating a test import. Businesses that relied on several Xero add-ons take longer, since those workflows must be rebuilt or re-integrated.
A scoped range goes in writing after the assessment. The Xero to ERPNext migration guide covers the detail.
