About giosoft

We build and run business software in Lagos.

giosoft is a software company in Ilupeju, Lagos. We build our own products and custom software for clients, and we put Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central into manufacturers and distributors, connected to the systems they already use. We set everything up for Naira and Nigerian tax from the start, and we plan around the things that tend to derail projects here, like unreliable power and sales that go through distributors.

Our engineers built the software behind two other Lagos businesses run by the same owners: GIO360, which shows manufacturers what their distributors sell, and Go N' Fill, which delivers fuel on demand. Building and running them ourselves is where much of our practical knowledge comes from.

Under the hood

Some of the code behind it

When a standard setup isn't enough, we write Business Central extensions in AL and build the APIs around them. The sample here is the kind of code that keeps GIO360 and Business Central in sync.

  • AL extensions
  • REST & OData APIs
  • Power Automate
  • Azure Functions
  • Dataverse
  • Webhooks
codeunit 50360 "GIO360 Primary Sale Sync"
{
    // Turns a goods receipt confirmed in GIO360 into a
    // Business Central sales order. Amounts post in Naira.
    procedure CreateOrder(Receipt: JsonObject): Code[20]
    var
        SalesHeader: Record "Sales Header";
        Distributor: Record Customer;
        Token: JsonToken;
    begin
        Receipt.Get('distributorCode', Token);
        Distributor.Get(Token.AsValue().AsCode());
 
        SalesHeader.Init();
        SalesHeader."Document Type" := SalesHeader."Document Type"::Order;
        SalesHeader.Insert(true);
        SalesHeader.Validate("Sell-to Customer No.", Distributor."No.");
        SalesHeader.Modify(true);

Common questions
