Switching without starting over

Most teams export their masters and lists from their current system to Excel, then import them into Scalar360: items and opening stock, leads and contacts, employees, and bank statements.

Keep closing balances from your current books as the opening position, run both side by side for a month if you prefer, and switch over at the start of a period.
