Overview
Moving from Verenia CPQ to Microsoft Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales is a post-shutdown data recovery and schema transformation project. Verenia's CPQ platform was discontinued in 2025 after Oracle's 2022 acquisition of its NetSuite CPQ solution, leaving customers without a live system to query. All migration work relies on pre-shutdown export artifacts, CSV downloads, or archived integration files. We map Verenia's Quote and Order records to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Opportunities and Quotes, decompress Product Configurations into structured metadata records, and preserve Contact and Account relationships with full referential integrity. Guided-selling rules and compatibility constraints cannot transfer as executable logic; we extract them as documentation for the customer's admin to rebuild in Dynamics 365's native tools. We do not migrate automations or workflows as code. We deliver a written inventory of any automation artifacts found in export archives for manual rebuild in Dynamics 365.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Verenia object lands in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales , including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Verenia
Quote
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Quote (Sales Cloud standard) or Opportunity
1:1Verenia Quotes map to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Quote or Opportunity depending on the customer's quoting workflow. We preserve quote number, line items (product, quantity, unit price, discount), status, expiration date, and customer association. If the customer uses Quote for final customer-facing documents, we map to the Quote object linked to the Opportunity. If quotes are internal pipeline records, we map to Opportunity directly and create Quote records only for signed or accepted quotes.
Verenia
Order
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Order (Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales ) or Opportunity with closed-won status
1:1Verenia Orders carry configuration data, pricing, and customer association. We preserve order number, line items, totals, and status (pending, confirmed, shipped, closed). Orders with a closed-won status map to Opportunity with CloseDate and StageName set to Closed Won. Pending or in-progress orders map to Opportunity with the appropriate stage. Configuration data nested within orders is decomposed into structured metadata notes attached to the Opportunity for manual rebuild in Dynamics 365's CPQ tools.
Verenia
Product
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Product (Product2)
1:1Verenia Products (including SKUs, pricing rules, and bundle structures) map to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Product2 records. We preserve product name, product code (SKU), description, base price, and pricing tier definitions. Bundle structures (parent products with mandatory or optional child products) are extracted as a structured metadata document rather than executable rules, because Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales does not natively interpret guided-selling logic without a Power Apps or third-party CPQ extension.
Verenia
Product Configuration
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Custom Entity (Configuration) + Opportunity Note
1:manyVerenia stored guided-selling rules, compatibility constraints, and pricing tier logic within Product Configuration records. These do not map to any standard Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales object. We extract them as structured metadata (JSON or CSV) and load them into a custom Configuration entity we create in the destination org, linked to the related Product2 and Opportunity via lookup. The customer's admin uses this documentation to rebuild configuration logic in Dynamics 365's Power Apps, third-party CPQ, or custom canvas apps.
Verenia
Contact
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Contact
1:1Verenia Contact records (name, email, phone, company association) migrate directly to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Contact. We use email as the dedupe key and preserve all standard contact fields. Custom contact properties (sales rep, territory, product interest) are mapped to custom Contact fields that we create in the destination schema before import.
Verenia
Company / Account
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Account
1:1Verenia Company records map to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Account. We preserve company name, address, industry, domain, and any custom fields. The Account record is created before Contact import so that the parent Account lookup is satisfied at the moment of Contact insert. Company-to-contact relationships are preserved through the Account-Contact relationship model in Dynamics 365.
Verenia
User
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
User
1:1Verenia User records map to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales User records by email match. We extract all Owner references from Quote, Order, Contact, and Company records and resolve them against the destination User table. Any Verenia Owner without a matching Dynamics 365 User goes to a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import continues. Inactive Verenia users are mapped to inactive Users in Dynamics 365 to preserve historical assignment.
Verenia
Attachment
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Note or Attachment (SharePoint / OneDrive)
1:1Quote PDFs, order confirmations, and configuration screenshots extracted from Verenia export archives are loaded into Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales . We link them to the relevant Quote, Order, or Opportunity record via the standard Attachment or Note mechanism. If the customer's Dynamics 365 environment is configured with Microsoft 365 integration (SharePoint or OneDrive for document management), we map files to the aligned document library location for native Teams and Outlook access.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Export artifact audit and availability check
We begin every Verenia migration with a discovery call to identify what export artifacts the customer retained. This includes CSV exports from the Verenia admin panel, JSON or XML files from integration pipelines, archived reports, and any browser-cached data. We assess record counts, file formats, field completeness, and the presence of configuration metadata. Customers who did not export data before shutdown face limited recovery options, and we document those constraints explicitly before proceeding. The output of this step is a written artifact inventory and a confirmed migration scope.
Schema design for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
We design the destination schema in the customer's Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales environment. This includes creating any custom Contact and Account fields needed for Verenia custom properties, creating a custom Configuration entity to hold extracted guided-selling metadata, and mapping Verenia Quote and Order statuses to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Opportunity stages and Quote statuses. We configure the Opportunity-to-Account relationship model to match the customer's account hierarchy before any record import. Schema is validated in a Sandbox or staging environment before production migration begins.
Data normalization and transformation
We normalize all Verenia export artifacts to a consistent format: UTF-8 encoded CSV or JSON with standardized field names. Nested configuration structures are decomposed into flat records for the custom Configuration entity. Bundle hierarchies are flattened into parent-child relationship tables. Product pricing tiers are extracted as structured pricing rule records. This step produces the canonical dataset that will load into Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales , documented field-by-field in the migration workbook.
Account and Contact migration with referential integrity
We load Verenia Company records as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Accounts first, using company name as the primary dedupe key and domain as secondary. We then load Verenia Contacts with each Contact linked to its parent Account. We resolve Verenia Owner references by email against the destination User table and flag any unmatched owners in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision. Account-Contact relationships are validated by counting Contact records per Account in both source and destination before proceeding.
Opportunity and Quote migration with ID cross-reference
We load Verenia Orders and Quotes as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Opportunities and Quotes. Closed-won Orders map to Opportunities with StageName set to Closed Won and CloseDate set to the order date. Open Orders map to Opportunities at the appropriate pipeline stage. We build the cross-reference table mapping original Verenia document numbers to new Dynamics 365 IDs during this step. Product line items from Verenia orders are loaded as Opportunity Product records linked to the Pricebook entry resolved during the Product migration phase.
Cutover, validation, and configuration rebuild handoff
We freeze any remaining Verenia data writes (if the customer still has limited access) during cutover, run a final reconciliation comparing record counts in source artifacts against Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales record counts, and validate a 25-50 record spot-check sample. We deliver the Configuration Rebuild Guide documenting every extracted guided-selling rule, bundle structure, and pricing tier in a format the customer's admin can use to rebuild in Dynamics 365's Power Apps or third-party CPQ. We do not rebuild automations or workflows as code. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised during the first week of production use.
