- Best suited to
- Businesses in the UAE leaving a system they have outgrown, who need open balances and history to come across intact.

SAP Business One to Odoo Migration in the UAE
Moving from SAP Business One to Odoo is a well-trodden path, and Shyphan runs these migrations for businesses across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. What moves: Business partners, item master with valuation, open documents, general ledger balances and the cost centre structure.
SAP B1's data model is rich, so the mapping exercise is the bulk of the effort. Cost centres usually become Odoo analytic accounts, which is a design decision worth making deliberately.
The migration is reconciled before anyone signs off: trial balance, aged receivables and payables, stock valuation and record counts are agreed against SAP Business One, and your finance lead signs the reconciliation. A rollback position is kept until the parallel run is complete.
Everything SAP Business One to Odoo Migration gives your business
Configured, localised and supported for the UAE by Shyphan.
Extract & Profile
We pull the source data early and profile it, so you know what is dirty in week one.
Cleansing List
A prioritised list of what only you can fix - duplicates, missing tax numbers, dead items.
Field Mapping
A written mapping from source field to Odoo field, agreed before anything is loaded.
Balance Reconciliation
Trial balance, AR and AP ageing and stock valuation reconciled to the source before sign-off.
Historical Transactions
As much history as genuinely earns its keep, with the rest archived and accessible.
Test Loads
Several rehearsal loads into staging so the production run is routine.
Parallel Run
Old and new running together for a period, with differences investigated, not ignored.
Rollback Plan
A documented way back if the cutover reveals something nobody expected.
Migration Report
What moved, what did not, and why - signed off by your finance lead.
What moves across
- Master data - customers, suppliers, products and the chart of accounts.
- Open items - unpaid invoices and bills with their ageing preserved.
- Opening balances - the trial balance as at cutover, reconciled to SAP Business One.
- Stock - quantities and valuation, with the costing method agreed in advance.
- History - as much as genuinely earns its keep, with the rest archived.
Built for the UAE by Shyphan
- 5% VAT returns and FTA-ready record keeping
- 9% corporate tax with the small-business relief threshold
- WPS salary files accepted by the bank or exchange house
- Free-zone versus mainland entity separation in one database
- Tax codes remapped so the first return filed from Odoo agrees with the last one filed from SAP Business One.

Where this migration is weak - and what we do about it
Migration cannot improve data that was wrong in the source system, and the cleansing is work only your team can do. History beyond a couple of years rarely earns the cost of moving it.
How we handle it: We profile the source data in week one and give you a prioritised cleansing list while there is still time to act on it.
