Solution
Your path from Dynamics GP to Business Central—without a leap of faith
Skalable turns a GP migration into a controlled business transition. We profile what you have, simplify what you no longer need, map the future-state processes, reconcile the data and rehearse cutover before your team goes live.
The move, step by step
What you have
Typical today: Customizations and integrations have unclear owners or documentation.
With Skalable: Companies, modules, add-ons, integrations and reports inventoried, with a risk register.
Data
Typical today: Years of history that is inconsistent, duplicated or no longer useful.
With Skalable: Clean master data, a chosen history approach, and every transformation and control total documented.
Process
Typical today: Month-end routines depend on personal knowledge and manual files.
With Skalable: Future-state processes signed off before configuration begins.
Cutover
Typical today: Go-live weekend feels like a leap of faith.
With Skalable: Trial migrations, reconciled opening balances and a rehearsed cutover plan.
After go-live
Typical today: Teams are unsure of the new process, not just the new screens.
With Skalable: Role-based training, support through the first close; GP retired only when exit criteria are met.
The problem
The risk is not moving the data. It is moving the business.
Years of GP history, add-ons, spreadsheets and familiar workarounds make migration feel risky. A successful move protects financial control while using the opportunity to simplify the operating model.

How it works
A migration with visible gates
Assess
Create the inventory, risk register, target scope, data strategy and migration roadmap.
Design and build
Configure Business Central around signed-off future processes and prove critical integrations early.
Migrate and validate
Execute trial loads, reconcile control totals, test end-to-end scenarios and obtain business sign-off.
Cut over and stabilize
Run the rehearsed cutover, support users through the first close and retire GP only when exit criteria are met.
01
Start with scope
A discovery or assessment phase maps processes, data and integrations, and ends with a written estimate.
02
Deliver in phases
Implementation runs as a phased fixed scope or a dedicated delivery team, each phase agreed before it starts.
03
Support after go-live
Managed support on a monthly plan by hours and coverage, business-hours or 24/7.
FAQ
Common questions
Do we need to bring all GP history into Business Central?
Usually not. We help select the right mix of migrated detail, summarized history and a searchable archive based on reporting, audit and operational needs.
Can we keep GP available after go-live?
Yes. A read-only period is common while reconciliations and audit needs are completed. The retirement plan should include access, retention, security and support ownership.
What happens to our GP add-ons and integrations?
Each is assessed for business value and mapped to a Business Central capability, replacement extension, integration or retirement decision.
How do you protect the first close?
We reconcile trial conversions, validate key reports, rehearse cutover and support the team through the first close with clear issue ownership.
How is a migration priced?
An assessment comes first. The phased implementation is then quoted from what the assessment finds: companies, modules, add-ons, integrations and how much history moves.
