Overview
Moving from Infor CloudSuite CRM to Twenty CRM is a lift from a tightly ERP-coupled, license-gated platform to a self-hosted, open-source CRM with REST and GraphQL APIs. Infor CRM stores Accounts as top-level records with Contacts linked via foreign keys, Opportunities linked to Accounts and Sales Periods, and Activities attached to either Contact or Opportunity — relationships that a flat CSV export does not preserve. We extract data in dependency order: Accounts first, then Contacts with AccountId resolved, then Opportunities with lookups to Accounts and Owners, then Activities. Sales Forecasts organized under Infor's Sales Period schema decompose into date boundaries mapped to Opportunity close dates. Infor ION BPM workflows, Infor-specific BPM integrations, and the Outlook export-layer duplicate pool do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of active integrations and the Outlook duplicate audit for your admin to address post-migration. Twenty's self-hosted deployment means your team manages infrastructure; we document the server requirements and Docker-based upgrade path alongside the data migration scope.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM) object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Account
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1Infor CRM Accounts (the Customers form) map directly to Twenty CRM Company records. The Account holds company-level data including SIC code, revenue, employee count, territory assignments, and the CRM tab fields. We extract via Infor's group export with SpeedSearch chunking to avoid UI timeouts on large account lists. Company becomes the top-level parent record; it must load before any Contact or Opportunity records that reference it. The Account name field maps directly to Company name; domain or website maps to the URL field if populated in Infor.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Contact (Sales Contact)
Twenty CRM
Person
1:1Infor CRM Sales Contacts link to Accounts via the Account foreign key and store the individual contact's name, role, phone, and email. We resolve the AccountId reference at migration time and attach the Person record to the corresponding Twenty Company. The Outlook integration creates duplicates in Infor; we deduplicate on email address and name matching before loading into Twenty. Any contact with an email matching an existing record in Twenty goes to a reconciliation queue for admin review.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Opportunity
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1Infor CRM Opportunities track deal stage, value, probability, and close date and link to Accounts and Owners. They map directly to Twenty Opportunity records. The Infor Opportunity stage value maps to a Twenty Opportunity stage via a stage-mapping spreadsheet created during scoping. Opportunity value maps to the amount field; close date maps directly. OwnerId resolves via email match against the Twenty User table.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Lead
Twenty CRM
Lead
1:1Infor CRM Leads are captured via the Leads form, store status, source, and owner, and can be converted to Opportunities. We migrate Lead records with status, source, owner, and any custom fields preserved. If the destination Twenty workspace uses Opportunities for all pipeline records rather than a separate Lead object, Leads with status below a configurable threshold (e.g., unqualified) are imported as Opportunity records with a pre-conversion stage flag.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Sales Forecast
Twenty CRM
Opportunity (date fields)
lossyInfor CRM Sales Forecasts aggregate Opportunities into Sales Periods — named date-range constructs that define fiscal or forecast period structure. This is not a standard date field; it is a distinct schema form. We decompose each Sales Period into its start and end date boundaries and apply those date ranges to the migrated Opportunity close dates or forecast date fields in Twenty. The forecast total per rep and territory maps to a custom number field on the Opportunity or a separate Forecast record if Twenty is configured with a dedicated forecast object. The mapping is explicit and documented in the field mapping spreadsheet before any data loads.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Activity (Task and Event)
Twenty CRM
Note and Task
1:1Infor CRM Activities and Events track calls, meetings, notes, and tasks with due dates and owner assignments, stored against Contacts or Opportunities. We map Activity type (Call, Meeting, Note, Task) to the corresponding Twenty record type. The activity description, date, and owner migrate. Call disposition and duration from Infor map to custom fields on the Twenty Task record. Activities attached to a Contact or Opportunity link to the migrated Person or Opportunity record via the Twenty relationship API.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Campaign
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (Campaign)
1:1Infor CRM Campaigns store campaign type, status, start/end dates, and budget. Campaign Items link products or contacts to a campaign. We migrate Campaign records as a custom object in Twenty, preserving campaign type, status, start date, end date, and budget. Campaign Items map to a Campaign Member custom relationship linking contacts (People records) to the campaign custom object. If Twenty's standard objects support campaigns, we map to the standard equivalent.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Ticket
Twenty CRM
Task (Case equivalent)
1:1Infor CRM's ticketing system stores support cases with status, priority, assigned agent, and conversation history. We map ticket records to Twenty Task records with a case-type designation (custom field or tag) to distinguish them from sales activities. Ticket status maps to a set of Task status values. Conversation history from the ticket migrates as Note records linked to the Task. Multi-line ticket conversations flatten to a single note per exchange or a series of timestamped notes preserving the thread order.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Custom Fields
Twenty CRM
Custom Fields
lossyInfor CRM supports custom fields on Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities, and Tickets using Infor-specific field types (picklists, dates, lookups). We inventory all custom fields during scoping, classify each by Infor field type, and map to the corresponding Twenty field type. Picklists in Infor become picklist or multi-select fields in Twenty. Infor date fields map directly to Twenty date fields. Infor lookup fields (references to related records) map to Twenty relationship fields where supported or to text fields holding the referenced record name as a fallback. Custom field mapping is documented field-by-field in the spreadsheet before migration begins.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
User (Owner)
Twenty CRM
Workspace User
1:1Infor CRM Users serve as record Owners and are linked to Territories. We map Users to Twenty workspace accounts by email match. Any Infor User without a matching Twenty User is held in a reconciliation queue; the customer's admin provisions the corresponding account in Twenty before record import resumes. OwnerId references on Opportunities, Activities, and Tickets are resolved at migration time using the validated User mapping table.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Territory and Quota
Twenty CRM
Custom Fields (workspace-level)
lossyTerritory assignments in Infor CRM map sales reps to geographic or account-based regions. Quotas are set per rep per territory per period. We migrate the territory structure as a custom picklist field on the Opportunity or Person record in Twenty, and quota values as a custom number field. Twenty does not have a native territory management module; the territory-quota structure maps to workspace-level custom fields that sales management configures in Twenty's field editor post-migration.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Attachment
Twenty CRM
File (linked via API)
1:1Attachments stored against Contacts, Accounts, Opportunities, and Tickets in Infor CRM export to a file store with the attachment filename and linked record reference. We attach each file to the corresponding migrated record in Twenty via the Twenty API file attachment endpoint. Email attachments from the Outlook integration export similarly with the parent email or contact reference preserved. Large binary attachments (over 25 MB) require chunked upload handling via the Twenty API.

Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM) gotchas
Outlook export creates duplicate contacts, not synced records
Usage-based API licensing gates customer-built integrations
Slow performance with large groups blocks export and migration prep
Sales Periods and forecast schema require explicit mapping
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and extraction method selection
We audit the source Infor CRM environment across the CloudSuite edition (Industrial or Distribution), the CRM module license scope, and the API license tier. We inventory all custom fields, Sales Period definitions, territory and quota structures, active Infor ION BPM integrations, and the Outlook duplicate pool. We confirm the primary extraction method: API-based extraction where the usage license permits, or SpeedSearch-chunked group export where API limits are restrictive. The discovery output is a written migration scope document covering object inventory, field mapping draft, and extraction method recommendation.
Field mapping and hierarchy sequencing design
We build the field mapping spreadsheet covering every Infor CRM field being migrated — standard and custom — with the corresponding Twenty field, field type, and any transformation logic required. The Sales Period decomposition is documented with start date, end date, and forecast total mapping. The Account-Contact-Opportunity-Activity load sequence is confirmed with dependency order documented. The deduplication strategy for contacts is documented with email as the primary dedupe key and name as secondary. The output is a field mapping and sequencing document reviewed by the customer's admin before any data extraction begins.
Staging environment migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into Twenty's staging or demo environment using production-equivalent data volume. The customer's admin reconciles record counts (Accounts in, Contacts in, Opportunities in, Activities in), spot-checks 25-50 records per object against the Infor source, and validates the Sales Period decomposition and Opportunity stage mapping. Any field mapping corrections, transformation logic adjustments, or dedupe rule changes happen in this phase. We do not proceed to production migration until the staging reconciliation is signed off.
User provisioning and owner reconciliation
We extract every distinct Infor CRM User referenced as an Owner on Contact, Opportunity, Activity, and Ticket record. We match by email against the Twenty workspace accounts. Users without a matching Twenty account go to a reconciliation queue. The customer's admin provisions the corresponding accounts in Twenty before record import resumes. Owner references cannot be resolved after the Opportunity migration phase; this step must complete before the production migration window opens.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Accounts (as Twenty Companies), Contacts (as People with CompanyId resolved), Leads (with the configurable stage threshold applied), Opportunities (with CompanyId and OwnerId resolved, Sales Period decomposed into date fields), Activities (Tasks, Notes with Person or Opportunity references resolved via the Twenty API), Tickets (as Tasks with case-type designation), Custom Fields (applied to all affected records per the mapping spreadsheet), Attachments (uploaded and linked via the Twenty file API), and Territories/Quotas (as custom fields). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. The Infor ION integration inventory document is delivered at this stage.
Cutover, validation, and integration rebuild handoff
We freeze Infor CRM writes during the cutover window, run a final delta migration of records modified during the migration window, then designate Twenty CRM as the system of record. We deliver the Infor ION integration inventory and the Outlook duplicate audit to the customer's admin team. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve reconciliation issues raised by the team. We do not rebuild Infor ION BPM workflows, territory management tooling, or Infor-specific integrations inside the migration scope; those are separate engagements or internal admin tasks.
