canuckhost Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Hello, I am looking for guidance on the best (correct) way to integrate some hosting clients I am acquiring from another host. Here is a brief outline of the situation. - Both the seller of the hosting accounts and I are on WHMCS (assume same version for now) - Seller's hosting accounts are on 2 different servers, 1 using HELM3, the other HELM4 - The clients are not being moved from the servers they are on, I am taking over the servers so they can stay where they are. What I am hoping for is a way for the seller to provide me with some sort of export from his WHMCS that contains everything needed for me to add (import?) the client into my own WHMCS so that when renewals are due my WHMCS will send the invoices and when payments are made they are channeled through our payment gateway just like my own clients are now. How is this done properly? Is all the server info, modules, renewal dates, packages and pricing etc all carried over to my WHMCS? What about invoices that were issued and are outstanding prior to the move? What about the invoice numbers, etc? Has anyone out there gone through this? Thanks kindly in advance. canuckhost 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitepearl Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Why do you care about financial information that doesn't belong to you? I always make my transfer clients signup like any other client, and have them select the "Transfer" option when they configure theirdomain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think you understand, he is buying another hosting company, and wants to import their clients into his own WHMCS installation. To the OP, There is a WHMCS import script, unfortunately I'm not sure how well it works. You might want to open up a ticket and ask support about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckhost Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks Frank - I've posed a question to support per your suggestion. There's got to be a reasonably easy way to do this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sitepearl Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 There is a script in the downloads section that will merge WHMCS databases. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointaction Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 That will not be fun if you have to do it by hand. It would depend on what the other host was using for billing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
