Migration

Switch without the drama

Move from spreadsheets or legacy stock books with a clear path — plan, import, parallel run, then cut over when you are ready.

Five steps to a clean switch

Most independents are live within a day. Groups get dedicated onboarding support.

01

Plan your import

Export stock lists, costs and documents from spreadsheets, folders or your current tool. We help you decide what to bring across and what to leave behind.

02

Import stock & documents

Bulk import vehicles via CSV. Attach documents per unit. Bring historic sold deals where needed for continuity.

03

Configure VAT & team

Set margin scheme, VAT rate and reminders. Invite staff and accountant roles. Review settings before go-live.

04

Run in parallel

Many dealers run Dealer Ledger alongside their old process for a few weeks — then cut over when confident.

05

First export & handoff

Run your first accountant export pack. Invite read-only access. Group customers get dedicated onboarding support.

Checklist

Before you cut over

  • Documents gathered (invoices, V5s, MOT certs)
