Migration success stories

Real accounting migrations, with real numbers behind them.

Completed Xero migrations across Sage 200, Access Financials and Microsoft Dynamics, from individual businesses to complex multi-entity groups.

Featured projects

Complex migrations, documented properly.

Different source systems and businesses create different migration problems. These case studies show how the work was actually approached.

Care Concern Group

33 Companies2.6m transactions · under four months · Sage 200 → Xero

Full history, group restructuring and a relationship that continued beyond the first project.

The initial programme moved 33 Sage 200 companies into a Xero environment already used across the wider 220+ entity care group. Historical data went back many years and included foreign-currency activity. The Chart of Accounts and contacts were restructured to support a consistent group model for future acquisitions.

Abacus Resource Solutions

16 CompaniesSage 200 → Xero · just over one month

A tightly sequenced multi-company migration delivered around year-end and VAT deadlines.

The programme included high transaction volumes, foreign currency, consolidation of around 35,000 sales lines in the largest entity, Chart of Accounts and contact clean-up, and detailed reconciliation across all 16 companies.

“All 16 companies successfully migrated in just over a month.”
