Overview
Moving from Breeze ERP to Infor CloudSuite is a structural migration that begins with data extraction challenges Breeze ERP does not publicly document. Breeze has no published API, no bulk export endpoint, and no SQL Server access path, so we negotiate CSV and HTML table exports from each module before attempting any field-level mapping. Infor CloudSuite's migration utility requires a SQL Server source database and a new initialized target database, which means Breeze's HTML exports must first be converted to tabular format and validated before they can enter Infor's migration pipeline. We preserve the Chart of Accounts structure as GL account codes, carry open AP and AR balances as-is at cutover, and map BOM and work order records to Infor's production data model. Infor CloudSuite's multi-tenant cloud architecture limits the customizations that can be deployed, so any Breeze-specific logic embedded in workflows, formulas, or user-defined fields requires explicit scoping and a rebuild plan rather than direct migration. Workflows, automations, and production scheduling rules do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's implementation team to rebuild in Infor's ION-based configuration layer.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Breeze ERP object lands in Infor CloudSuite Corporate, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Breeze ERP
Customer / Company
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Customer
1:1Breeze ERP Customer and Company records map to Infor CloudSuite Customer. The primary key from Breeze (customer code) maps to Infor CustomerId, and the customer name, address, contact details, and payment terms transfer to Infor's Customer form fields. We resolve any duplicate customers (same legal name, different site codes) during scoping and flatten them into a single Customer with multiple Ship-To addresses in Infor. Breeze's customer-specific pricing and discount structures become Infor Customer Price Codes requiring post-migration configuration.
Breeze ERP
Vendor
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Supplier
1:1Breeze ERP Vendor master records map to Infor CloudSuite Supplier. Vendor code, name, address, bank details, and payment terms transfer directly. We flag any Vendor records with active Purchase Orders at cutover because the PO header and line references must resolve to the newly created Supplier ID during import. Open PO balances carry forward as AP liability records in Infor's AP register.
Breeze ERP
Item / Product
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Item
1:1Breeze ERP Items (both inventory SKUs and non-inventory products) map to Infor CloudSuite Item Master. The item code, description, unit of measure, and cost structure transfer. We handle the unit-of-measure conversion table explicitly because Breeze and Infor use different UOM naming conventions. Inventory quantities at cutover map to Infor's on-hand inventory records tied to the relevant warehouse and site.
Breeze ERP
BOM (Bill of Materials)
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
BOM / Recipe
lossyBreeze ERP BOM records map to Infor CloudSuite Bill of Materials with component lines and routing steps. We extract the BOM header (item code, revision, effective date) and component lines (component item, quantity per, scrap percent) from Breeze exports and map them to Infor's BOM structure. Multi-level BOMs require parent-child resolution across the import sequence. The customer chooses whether to migrate BOM revision history or only the current active revision based on cutover scope.
Breeze ERP
Work Order
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Production Order
1:1Breeze ERP Work Orders map to Infor CloudSuite Production Orders. We extract Work Order header (WO number, item to manufacture, quantity, status, scheduled dates) and component issue and labor booking lines. Open work orders (Released, In Process status) migrate with their component allocations and operation routing. Closed work orders migrate as historical records with actuals preserved for costing audit. Work order dependencies on multi-level BOMs resolve against the BOM mapping in the preceding step.
Breeze ERP
Chart of Accounts
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Account Code
lossyBreeze ERP Chart of Accounts maps to Infor CloudSuite GL Account Code structure. This is the most critical mapping in the migration because every journal entry, AP invoice, AR invoice, and inventory transaction references an account code. We extract the full account hierarchy (account code, description, type, sub-type, parent account) from Breeze exports and configure the corresponding Infor account structure before any transactional records move. We flag accounts with zero balances, accounts used only in prior periods, and accounts with non-standard types for customer review before activation.
Breeze ERP
Open AP Balances
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
AP Invoice / Voucher
1:1Open Accounts Payable records from Breeze ERP at cutover date map to Infor CloudSuite AP Vouchers. We extract vendor invoice number, vendor code, invoice date, due date, invoice amount, and account distribution lines. Each AP Voucher references the Supplier ID resolved from the Vendor mapping step. Prepayments and credit memos migrate as separate AP documents with their own reference chains. Post migration, the customer's AP team reconciles the Infor AP register against the Breeze AP aging report as the cutover validation step.
Breeze ERP
Open AR Balances
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
AR Invoice / Invoice
1:1Open Accounts Receivable records from Breeze ERP at cutover date map to Infor CloudSuite AR Invoices. We extract customer invoice number, customer code, invoice date, due date, invoice amount, and account distribution lines. Each AR Invoice references the Customer ID resolved from the Customer mapping step. Credit memos and down payments migrate as separate AR documents with their own reference chains. Post migration, the customer's AR team reconciles the Infor AR register against the Breeze AR aging report.
Breeze ERP
Project
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Project
1:1Breeze ERP Project records map to Infor CloudSuite Project. We extract project header (project code, name, status, start date, end date, customer reference) and project assignments (resources, time entries, expense entries). Project-specific revenue recognition settings, billing schedules, and WBS structures require explicit scoping because they vary significantly by project type and industry. Projects with open purchase orders and subcontracts carry those references forward and resolve against the Supplier and PO mappings.
Breeze ERP
Inventory Transaction History
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Inventory Transaction Log
1:1Breeze ERP inventory transaction history (receipts, issues, transfers, adjustments) maps to Infor CloudSuite inventory transaction records. We extract transaction date, item code, warehouse, quantity, cost, and reference document. Historical transactions older than 24 months may be migrated as summary records rather than line-by-line based on scoping agreement, because full transactional history migration significantly increases migration time without proportionate business value. Current on-hand quantities at cutover date are the priority migration.
Breeze ERP
User / Owner
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
User
1:1Breeze ERP Users referenced on transactions, work orders, and projects map to Infor CloudSuite Users. We resolve by email match where possible. Breeze role and permission structures do not map directly to Infor's role-based security model; we deliver a role matrix document that maps each Breeze role to the nearest Infor functional role for the customer's admin to configure post-migration. Users without email matches go to a reconciliation queue for manual provisioning.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Export negotiation and discovery
We engage the customer's Breeze ERP administrator to negotiate data exports from each module (Customers, Vendors, Items, Chart of Accounts, BOMs, Work Orders, Projects, Open AP, Open AR). We request HTML table and CSV exports from every relevant screen, document the export schedule with the Breeze vendor, and begin the HTML-to-tabular conversion process. Simultaneously, we conduct a discovery session to capture record counts per module, identify custom fields, understand the Chart of Accounts hierarchy, and assess BOM complexity (single-level vs. multi-level, revision control). The discovery output is a written migration scope with record counts and a preliminary field map.
HTML-to-tabular conversion and field mapping
We convert Breeze HTML table exports to structured tabular format (CSV or database staging tables) and infer column semantics from UI labels. We build a field map that pairs each Breeze export column with its Infor CloudSuite target field. For the Chart of Accounts, we map account codes and GL structure explicitly before any transactional records are mapped. We flag any Breeze fields without a confirmed Infor equivalent as excluded or deferred. The field map is reviewed by the customer's functional leads (Finance, Operations, Production) before we proceed to staging database setup.
SQL Server staging and Infor migration utility preparation
We load the converted tabular data into a SQL Server staging database that satisfies the Infor CloudSuite Migration Utility's source database requirement. We configure import source tables, import target tables, and import steps per the Infor Migration Utility documentation. We validate that the staging database's SQL Server version meets the 2008 or later requirement and that network connectivity between the staging database and the Infor target database is confirmed. We run a dry-run import with a subset of records to validate the mapping and transform logic before committing the full dataset.
Chart of Accounts and GL structure setup
We configure the Infor CloudSuite Chart of Accounts structure before any transactional records are imported, because every AP invoice, AR invoice, inventory transaction, and journal entry references a GL account code. We map Breeze account codes to Infor account codes, configure account types (Asset, Liability, Equity, Revenue, Expense), and set up the account hierarchy. We run a validation that every transactional record in the staging database resolves to a valid Infor account code. Accounts with missing or invalid GL codes are routed to a correction queue for the customer's finance team to resolve before the transactional migration phase begins.
Master data migration in dependency order
We run master data migration in strict dependency order: Item Master (prerequisite for BOMs and inventory), BOMs (prerequisite for Work Orders), Customer, Supplier, then Chart of Accounts (already completed in step 4). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report and a sample record validation that the customer's functional lead signs off before the next phase begins. Open AP and AR balances migrate after master data is complete, carrying forward the Customer and Supplier IDs resolved in the master data phase.
Cutover, delta migration, and validation
We freeze Breeze ERP writes during the cutover window, run a final delta migration of any records created or modified after the initial extract, then enable Infor CloudSuite as the system of record. The customer's finance team reconciles the Infor AP and AR registers against the Breeze aging reports as the cutover validation step. We deliver a written inventory of all Breeze workflows, production scheduling rules, and custom formulas requiring rebuild in Infor's ION configuration layer. We support a one-week post-cutover window where we resolve any reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Breeze automations as Infor configurations as part of the standard migration scope.
