This article outlines the conditions for data migration and what the migration includes.
When migrating between two different systems, the standard approach is to migrate the core reference data and essential records (address book, price list, inventory status, invoices, cash register, etc.), followed by a smooth transition through the entry of opening account balances. The migration requires your data in XML format, for which we have prepared a transformation for import into ABRA Flexi.
Your Involvement
We will need a backup of the company data you wish to migrate.
Before the migration, you must have an ABRA Flexi license in place and create a new, clean company within it, into which the converted XML data will be imported. The modules to be migrated must be exported from the Pohoda system in XML format. The scope of the migration needs to be specified before work begins.
Effort Estimation
Once you send us the exported XML files from your system along with your requirements regarding the scope, we can estimate the effort involved. The work typically takes a few hours, depending on the scope of the modules and data. The hourly rate for this service is the standard service intervention rate as listed in the current price list.
Migration Scope
The migration does not include a complete 1:1 reconstruction of your accounting records.
The structure of the two systems differs. The migration tool transfers data from the current period only — previous periods are not included. Those are entered into ABRA Flexi in the form of closing balances from the previous accounting period.
The one-time data transfer includes:
Address Book
· basic information about contacts
· contact persons
· bank account details
· relationship type
Purchase and Sales Invoices
· basic invoice information (type, number, dates)
· supplier or customer information and the final amount due
· both sales and purchase invoices can be transferred with or without their payments
Note: It is unfortunately not possible to identify the payment method of documents from XML files exported from the Pohoda system. This means that if you choose to transfer currently paid documents, a new cash register with the abbreviation POKLADNA-MIGRACE will be created for this purpose, and the payments will be recorded in it.
The alternative is to transfer invoices without payments, in which case you will need to download and match bank transactions afterwards.
If you are unsure how to post the resulting transactions, we can provide guidance through an individual consultation with our accounting specialist. The consultation hourly rate is as per the current price list.
Warehouses

· names
· categories
Inventory (in ABRA Flexi, this covers the Price List and Stock Cards records)

· selling and purchase price
· name
· sets and bundles
· bill of materials
Cash Register

What the Migration Does Not Include
· accounting outputs (journal, general ledger, reports)
· internal documents
· bank statements
· fixed assets
· orders
· stock movements
· HR and payroll data
Notice: The migration creates special document types (FAKTURA MIGRACE, POKLADNA MIGRACE, etc.) intended solely for migration purposes. For ongoing work in the system, you will need to use the new document types that you set up within the system.
It is also essential to complete all company settings, including information about your organization, legislative configuration, and much more. You can find all the relevant information in our documentation.
