Move your Focus Softnet data to Simplify Your Work
Focus has served UAE businesses since 1992 — many of them through multiple upgrades. We extract your Focus data into Simplify and modernise your stack without losing history.
We've heard every concern. Here are the three biggest.
Data is in an old version
You may be on Focus 8, Focus ERP, or Focus i. We handle all three versions.
Windows-era thinking is baked in
Focus users often rely on legacy forms + reports. We map each report to a Simplify dashboard or custom report before cutover.
Your local Focus partner manages upgrades
You've had a long relationship with your Focus partner. The migration doesn't have to be adversarial — we'll coordinate with them directly to extract data cleanly.
Every Focus record that matters.
Customer + vendor master
All contacts, addresses, TRN, credit terms, ageing balances.
Transactions history
Sales + purchase invoices, receipts + payments, journal entries with original dates.
Inventory
Items, warehouses, stock with serial / batch tracking.
Chart of accounts
Full COA + ledger balances at cutover.
HR + payroll (if used)
Employee master, salary structure, leave balances, WPS history.
VAT compliance
UAE VAT registrations and historical VAT-return data preserved.
Four steps. We carry the risk.
Version check + extract
We identify your Focus version and extract data via SQL direct or Focus's export utilities. Legacy Focus (8+) may need a manual pass; Focus i is API-enabled.
Report mapping
We catalogue the Focus reports your team uses daily + map each to a Simplify equivalent. Anything that can't be matched gets built custom.
Cutover
Month-end cutover. Opening balances reconciled. Simplify tenant handed over with training materials.
Legacy archive
Focus becomes read-only for archival. We don't ask you to uninstall until 12 months post-cutover.
How long it takes
Typical Focus → Simplify: 3–5 weeks. The report-mapping exercise is usually what takes the time.
What we promise
Every Focus report your team uses has a Simplify equivalent by cutover day. If something can't be matched, we build it.
Migration questions, answered.
Which Focus versions are supported?
Focus 8, Focus ERP, Focus i (cloud), and older variants — we've migrated from all of them.
Can we keep our Focus partner in the loop?
Absolutely. Many Focus partners have been helpful during our migrations. We work with them, not around them.
Do you handle the Focus WPS payroll history?
Yes. Historical payroll records and SIF files migrate to Simplify's HR module.
