📁 1. Free Demo Trial & Instant Onboarding
How does the 7-day free demo trial work?

You get immediate, unrestricted access to a complete multi-tenant cloud organization with demo data pre-loaded across all 12 modules. No credit card is required, and you can invite unlimited team members to test concurrent workflows.
Can we invite multiple department users during the trial?

📁 2. 1-Click Migration from Tally, Busy, Marg & Logic ERP
How do we migrate our existing Chart of Accounts and Ledgers?
▼
NextERP features a dedicated 1-Click Migration Hub with pre-built CSV/Excel templates. Export your Master Ledgers from Tally or Busy, upload the file, and our system maps opening balances and HSN tax classifications with dry-run validation.
Can we import batch numbers, expiry dates, and godown opening stock?
▼
Yes. Our inventory importer supports multi-location godown balances, batch lot numbers, manufacturing dates, expiry dates, and barcode serial numbers.
Will our historical financial transactions be preserved?
▼
You can import opening Trial Balances as of your financial year cutoff date, ensuring complete continuity in balance sheet and ledger reporting.
📁 3. Indian GST E-Invoicing & Direct NIC Compliance
How does automated government E-Invoicing & IRN generation function?
▼
Upon posting a B2B sales invoice, NextERP automatically connects to the government IRP portal, generates the 64-character Invoice Reference Number (IRN) and signed QR code, and prints them on the tax invoice in under 500ms.
Does NextERP generate E-Way Bills directly from delivery challans?
▼
Yes. NextERP generates Part-A and Part-B E-Way Bill numbers with vehicle tracking details in real time, eliminating the need to log in to external government portals manually.
How are GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, and ITC reconciliation handled?
▼
All B2B, B2C, credit notes, and export invoices are classified automatically into their respective government tables (Table 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) for 1-click GST return reconciliation and JSON export.
📁 4. Retail POS Counter & Marg / Logic Keyboard Hotkeys
Can cashiers operate the POS counter 100% without touching a mouse?
▼
Yes. NextERP includes a high-speed cashier operational engine with full Marg ERP & Logic ERP hotkeys (F2 Item Search, F4 Tender Toggle, F9 Line Discount, F10 / End Fast Bill Settle). Cashiers can scan, park, settle, and print receipts with sub-500ms latency.
How do Dynamic UPI QR code payments work at the counter?
▼
When a bill is finalized, a dynamic UPI QR code showing the exact payable amount is generated on-screen. Once the customer scans and pays via GPay/PhonePe/Paytm, the cash drawer balance updates automatically.
Does the POS support multi-cart parking and shift cash drawer balance?
▼
Yes. Cashiers can park up to 5 concurrent shopping carts when a customer steps away. Opening floating cash, cash drops, and shift closing drawer counts are verified with variance auditing.
📁 5. Manufacturing MRP, Recipe BOMs & Subcontracting
How does NextERP calculate raw material shortage before starting production?
▼
When you select a finished product and target batch size, the interactive MRP engine calculates the exact required quantities of raw materials and packaging items based on the recipe BOM. If any ingredient is insufficient, a 1-click Purchase Order is generated.
How does the 1-Click stock conversion work on work order completion?
▼
When a production work order is marked finished, raw material stock is automatically deducted from the manufacturing godown and finished goods are credited to the dispatch warehouse with capitalized labour and overhead costs.
Does NextERP support Job Work Subcontracting (GST Sec 143)?
▼
Yes. Issue Job Work Delivery Challans for external processing, track material lying with job workers, and account for scrap losses during receipt.
📁 6. Multi-Godown Logistics, FIFO Batches & Serial Tracking
How does NextERP prevent negative stock issues?
▼
NextERP features a strict Negative Stock Guard policy. Sales orders and dispatch challans are locked if stock is unavailable in the specified godown or bin, preventing inventory errors and balance sheet inaccuracies.
Can we track near-expiry batches and trigger promotional discounts?
▼
Yes. Batches nearing expiration (e.g. 30/60/90 days) trigger automated alerts and can be allocated to special near-expiry discount matrix schemes to accelerate sell-through.
How are Inter-Branch Stock Transfers (STOs) tracked?
▼
Stock in transit between regional warehouses is tracked with dedicated STO gate passes and receiving confirmation acknowledgments.
📁 7. Cloud Security, Tenant Isolation & Data Sovereignty
How is tenant data segregated and kept secure?
▼
NextERP enforces strict multi-tenant database scoping where every query is locked to the authenticated organization. All traffic uses 256-bit SSL encryption, and automated database backups are continuously generated.
Can we export our entire operational dataset anytime?
▼
Yes. You have 100% Data Sovereignty. You can download your complete database ledgers, customer history, SKU catalog, and invoices in standard CSV or JSON with 1 click. There is zero vendor lock-in.
