Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from DIGIT to Infor CloudSuite Industrial is a government-to-enterprise schema migration. DIGIT organises data around module-specific entities (PT for property tax, TL for trade licences, PGR for grievances, FSM for field services, HRMS for employees) with Citizens as the central cross-module identifier. Infor CloudSuite Industrial uses a Business Partner model with Address Book records, and has no native citizen-service module. We map DIGIT citizens to Address records with custom BP extensions, translate module-specific schemas into Infor's table structure, and resolve cross-module identifiers so that a citizen's property, trade, and grievance histories remain linked post-migration. DIGIT localisation files require remapping into Infor OS configuration. Workflows, module-specific automations, and the open-source community tooling do not migrate; we document them for the customer's admin team to rebuild in Infor OS or a chosen integration layer.

What's pushing teams away

  • Deployment complexity requires dedicated IT staff and DevOps expertise — smaller municipalities struggle to maintain on-premises or custom cloud installations without external support.
  • Customisation overhead accumulates over time; heavily modified deployments become difficult to upgrade and create high technical debt during future version migrations.
  • Performance bottlenecks emerge in large-scale deployments with high transaction volumes, particularly in modules handling real-time citizen service requests.
  • Module-by-module adoption leads to data silos across PT, HRMS, and FSM, making cross-module reporting and unified citizen views difficult to achieve.
  • Vendor support for enterprise-grade deployments is limited compared to commercial ERP alternatives, leaving organisations dependent on system integrator partners.

Choosing

Infor CloudSuite Corporate logo

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

What's pulling them in

  • Infor CloudSuite is industry-specific out of the box — manufacturing, distribution, healthcare, and food & beverage editions ship with preconfigured workflows that reduce the need for extensive customization and accelerate time to value for operations-heavy organizations.
  • The platform's deep integration with Excel for financial reporting is frequently cited as a key productivity feature, allowing finance teams to pull data directly and make changes without leaving familiar tooling.
  • AWS-hosted multi-tenant deployment eliminates data center management for IT teams, and Infor OS provides a unified integration layer (ION) that connects the CloudSuite to third-party applications without point-to-point middleware.
  • Organizations with multi-site or multi-country operations choose Infor for its multicurrency, multilanguage, and local regulatory compliance capabilities across 175+ countries, which simplifies consolidation for global CFOs.
  • The two-tier ERP strategy positioning lets corporate headquarters run CloudSuite while subsidiaries run lighter instances, which appeals to complex organizational structures that want standardization without full replacement.

Object mapping

How Digit objects map to Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Each row shows how a Digit 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.

Digit

Citizen (PGR Module)

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Business Partner + Address

1:many
Fully supported

DIGIT's Citizen entity is the central cross-module identifier linked to property records, trade licences, complaints, and FSM service requests. Infor CloudSuite Industrial has no native citizen entity. We map each DIGIT Citizen to an Infor Address record (ADDRE5) and create a corresponding Business Partner (OC BPA) with the BP type set to Government or Citizen via a custom BP extension table. The original DIGIT citizen identifier is stored in a custom field on the BP record for cross-reference and audit. All module-specific records (PT, TL, PGR, FSM) reference this BP via the resolved citizen identifier.

Digit

Property (PT Module)

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Address + Item + Custom Extension

1:1
Fully supported

DIGIT PT stores property records with boundary definitions, assessment values, owner associations, and payment histories. Infor CloudSuite does not have a native property management object. We map property records to a combination of Address (property location), Item records (for assessment and billing units), and a custom PT_PROPERTY extension table that stores PT-specific fields including boundary codes, assessment cycle, exemption flags, and demand register references. Owner associations resolve through the citizen-to-BP mapping established in Step 1.

Digit

Trade Licence (TL Module)

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Business Partner Modification

1:1
Fully supported

DIGIT TL records hold business details, licence categories, application status, and issuance history linked to a Citizen. We map these to Infor CloudSuite Business Partner Modification records (OC BPMDT) with category codes translated from DIGIT's TL licence type taxonomy to Infor's BP Modification type codes. Application status and issuance history migrate as modification date-effective records against the BP. If the target Infor edition lacks BP Modification support, we create a TL_LICENCE custom object with all TL-specific fields and a lookup to the resolved Business Partner.

Digit

Complaint / Grievance (PGR Module)

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Case or Work Order

1:many
Fully supported

DIGIT PGR manages citizen complaints with workflow states, department assignments, and resolution tracking. Infor CloudSuite Industrial does not have a native citizen service module. We map PGR grievances to Infor Case records (if Service Cloud is licensed) or to a FSM_WO custom work order table with a complaint category field. Each grievance's status, timeline events, and action history migrate as WO operations or Case history entries. The PGR citizen identifier resolves to the Business Partner created in Step 1 so that complaint records are linked to the correct citizen.

Digit

Field Service Request (FSM Module)

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

FSM Work Order or Project

1:1
Fully supported

DIGIT FSM handles sanitation, drainage, and desludging service requests with routing, field worker assignment, and completion records. Infor CloudSuite Industrial includes FSM capabilities as part of the LN suite. We map FSM service requests to Infor FSM Work Orders (SFO WO) with routing, asset association, and completion data translated to Infor's WO operation structure. Open FSM requests with active assignment require careful OwnerId resolution against the DIGIT HRMS employee mapping to ensure field workers are provisioned as Infor users before WO import.

Digit

Employee / User (HRMS Module)

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Employee

1:1
Fully supported

DIGIT HRMS stores employee records, roles, department assignments, and leave balances. We map these to Infor CloudSuite Employee records. Role-permission mappings are deployment-specific in both systems and do not migrate automatically. We preserve role names and department assignments in custom fields on the Infor Employee record and flag that permission sets require manual validation against the Infor role model post-migration. Leave balance data migrates to the HRMS module if the target Infor edition includes HRMS, or to a HR_LEAVE_BALANCE custom table.

Digit

Demand Register / Invoice Records

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Accounts Receivable Invoice

1:many
Fully supported

DIGIT demand registers (PT billing, FSM service invoices) store financial records with status flags across multiple modules. We split by module: PT demand records map to Infor AR Invoice entries linked to the Property BP; FSM invoices map to FSM Work Order cost entries. Demand register status (paid, pending, overdue) migrates to Infor's Invoice status field. Open invoices require careful date-based filtering to ensure the cutover date captures all outstanding receivables in the migration window.

Digit

Localisation Files

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Infor OS Configuration

lossy
Fully supported

DIGIT deployments use JSON/CSV localisation files for multi-language labels, region-specific business rules, and module configurations. Infor CloudSuite manages localisation through Infor OS Configuration Management rather than external files. We extract the DIGIT localisation files, map each locale key to its corresponding Infor OS configuration entry, and apply the mappings during the Infor CloudSuite configuration phase. Multi-language citizen-facing labels require Infor OS language pack activation in the target deployment.

Digit

Citizen Identifier Cross-Reference

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Custom Cross-Module Reference Table

1:1
Fully supported

Because DIGIT modules maintain partial data separation, a single citizen may appear across PT (property owner), TL (business licensee), PGR (complainant), and FSM (service requestor) with different internal IDs in each module. We build a Citizen Cross-Reference table during extraction that maps each module-specific identifier to the canonical citizen UUID and the resolved Infor Business Partner ID. This reference table is loaded before any module records and is used to link all cross-module associations in Infor CloudSuite.

Digit

Boundary Definitions

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Address Region + Custom Boundary Table

lossy
Fully supported

DIGIT PT and FSM modules use boundary definitions (administrative area, zone, ward) for jurisdiction and routing. Infor CloudSuite Address supports region codes but not hierarchical boundary structures. We map DIGIT boundary levels to a custom BOUNDARY_HIERARCHY table with parent-child relationships matching the source hierarchy, and link boundary codes to Infor Address Region fields for geospatial queries.

Pair-specific challenges

  • DIGIT Citizen records have no native Infor CloudSuite equivalent

    Infor CloudSuite Industrial does not include a citizen-service management module. DIGIT's Citizen entity is government-specific and maps across Business Partner, Address, and a custom extension structure. We create a BP-Address-Custom extension composite record for each DIGIT citizen, but the citizen-service workflows (complaint routing, FSM dispatch, PGR escalation) require either Service Cloud licensing with a custom object model or a rebuild of the citizen-facing processes in Infor OS. We flag this gap during scoping and provide a written citizen-service data model design for the customer to implement before or after migration.

  • Infor CloudSuite requires strict data entry sequence order

    Infor CloudSuite Industrial's migration database enforces a sequence dependency: master data codes (Unit of Measure, Tax codes, Payment Terms, Address Book types) must be defined before any transactional records can be loaded against them. DIGIT's modules do not enforce this same sequence, so PT demand records, TL licence categories, and FSM service types may reference codes that do not yet exist in Infor. We run a dependency audit before any preliminary transfer, generate the required Infor master data codes from DIGIT reference tables, and sequence all import steps to match Infor's prerequisite requirements.

  • Cross-module citizen associations require pre-built lookup resolution

    A DIGIT citizen who appears as a property owner in PT, a licence holder in TL, a complainant in PGR, and a service recipient in FSM has four separate module-specific identifiers. In Infor CloudSuite, all four records must resolve to the same Business Partner ID. We build a Citizen Cross-Reference table during the extraction phase that maps every module-specific identifier to the canonical citizen UUID and the target Infor BP ID. This table is loaded as a prerequisite before any PT, TL, PGR, or FSM records enter the migration database. If this resolution step is skipped, citizen records become duplicated across the BP table, breaking cross-module reporting.

  • DIGIT localisation files require remapping to Infor OS configuration

    DIGIT stores region-specific labels, business rules, and module configurations in JSON and CSV localisation files. Infor CloudSuite manages localisation through the Infor OS platform rather than external files. We extract the DIGIT localisation files, map each locale key to its equivalent Infor OS configuration entry, and apply the mappings during the Infor configuration phase. Multi-language citizen-facing labels require activation of the relevant Infor OS language packs. If the target Infor edition lacks the required language pack, we document the gap for the customer's admin to resolve.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Digit to Infor CloudSuite Corporate data migration

  1. Discovery and deployment accessibility assessment

    We audit the source DIGIT deployment to identify active modules (PT, TL, PGR, FSM, HRMS), record volumes per module, cross-module citizen identifier usage, and any localisation files in scope. We assess the DIGIT deployment's API accessibility and database export method (REST API, direct database connection, or custom export). We pair this with the target Infor CloudSuite edition review to confirm which modules are licensed and whether Service Cloud is included for citizen-service migration. The discovery output is a written migration scope with module-by-module record counts, cross-module dependency map, and a deployment accessibility report.

  2. Schema design and citizen-to-BP composite mapping

    We design the destination Infor CloudSuite schema to accommodate DIGIT's government-specific objects. This includes creating the Business Partner extension tables (PT_PROPERTY, TL_LICENCE, FSM_WO, HR_LEAVE_BALANCE), mapping DIGIT's citizen identifiers to Infor Address and BP records, designing the BOUNDARY_HIERARCHY custom table for administrative geography, and building the Citizen Cross-Reference table that maps every module-specific identifier to a single BP ID. The Citizen-Account-Contact split logic is analogous to a CRM Lead-Contact split: we resolve the citizen record first, then attach all module records to it.

  3. Infor CloudSuite migration database setup and master data pre-load

    We create the Infor CloudSuite migration database as a staging layer between the DIGIT source and the production database, per Infor's documented migration architecture. We load master data codes (Units of Measure, Tax parameters, Payment Terms, Address Book types) extracted from DIGIT reference tables before any transactional records. This pre-load step is mandatory because Infor's preliminary data transfer validation rejects any transactional record that references a code not yet defined in the target schema.

  4. DIGIT data extraction and transformation with cross-module resolution

    We run custom extraction scripts against the DIGIT source environment to pull records from each module. The transformation layer applies the citizen-to-BP mapping, resolves cross-module identifiers using the Cross-Reference table, transforms field data types (date formats, currency codes, flag values Y/N to Infor checkbox 1/0), and splits PT demand records and FSM invoices into their appropriate Infor financial structures. We generate a Data Assessment Report during preliminary transfer to identify any unmapped fields or constraint violations before final transfer.

  5. Cross-module citizen reconciliation and validation

    We run a reconciliation check on the preliminary transfer output to confirm that all DIGIT citizens resolved to a single Infor Business Partner across all modules. We validate that property records link to the correct citizen BP, trade licences attach to the correct BP modification record, PGR complaints link to the citizen BP via the custom grievance table, and FSM service requests link to the correct BP via the work order. Any unresolved cross-module references are logged and corrected in the transformation layer before the final transfer is run.

  6. Production cutover and localisation file handoff

    We freeze writes in the DIGIT source system during the cutover window, run a final delta migration of any records modified since the last extraction, then commit the migration database data to the Infor CloudSuite production database. We deliver the DIGIT localisation files with a written mapping to Infor OS configuration entries for the customer's admin team to apply. We provide a written inventory of DIGIT module-specific workflows, FSM routing rules, and PGR escalation configurations that require rebuild in Infor OS. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues.
