Overview

What this migration involves

Moving from eCommerce Pro to Infor CloudSuite is a platform-class migration from a storefront-centric system to an industry-specific ERP suite. eCommerce Pro organises data around products, customers, orders, and fulfillment; Infor CloudSuite organises around financials, supply chain, manufacturing, and human capital across separate functional modules. We map eCommerce Pro Customers to Infor Business Partners, Products to Infor Item Master with BOM structures, Orders to Infor Distribution Orders, and Inventory to Infor Warehouse Management. Coupon and promotion logic has no direct Infor equivalent; we deliver a pricing rule inventory for the customer to rebuild in Infor Price Management. Workflows, automations, and third-party integrations do not migrate as code; we inventory every integration requiring reconfiguration on Infor OS. Historical transaction data requires a freeze period before migration to ensure the new Infor system receives a clean cutover with no open transactions in the legacy platform.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

eCommerce Pro

What's pushing teams away

  • Transaction fees on lower Shopify tiers can erode margins significantly for high-volume merchants unless Shopify Payments is adopted, pushing brands toward platforms with transparent wholesale pricing.
  • Custom Liquid development offers flexibility but creates upgrade risk when heavy theme customisations block platform updates and require re-engineering to maintain.
  • The shift from a legacy all-in-one platform to Shopify's app-driven model requires rebuilding or reconfiguring integrations that were previously native to the source system.
  • Growing merchants occasionally outpace what standard Shopify tiers support without escalating to Shopify Plus custom infrastructure agreements.

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 eCommerce Pro objects map to Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Each row shows how a eCommerce Pro 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.

eCommerce Pro

Customer

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Business Partner

1:1
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro Customer records map to Infor CloudSuite Business Partner with ship-to and bill-to address hierarchies. The customer email becomes the Business Partner contact key, and account credit status from eCommerce Pro maps to Infor Credit Limit fields. Marketing opt-in preferences map to a custom field on the Business Partner contact person record since Infor does not have a native marketing consent object. Customers with B2B company associations require a parent Business Partner record with individual contacts as related persons.

eCommerce Pro

Product

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Item Master

1:1
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro Products map to Infor Item Master (MITM) with SKU as Item Number and product name as Description. Variant-level attributes (size, colour, material) map to Infor's unit-of-measure and stocking U/M configuration. Products with bill-of-materials compositions require us to create Infor BOM structures during migration; the parent product becomes the BOM header and variants become components. SEO metadata and product descriptions migrate to Infor Item cross-reference and product description fields, not to a native SEO store.

eCommerce Pro

Order

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Distribution Order

1:1
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro Orders map to Infor CloudSuite Distribution Order (IDO). Order status (pending, processing, shipped, delivered, cancelled) maps to Infor order lifecycle states in the distribution module. Line items map with quantity, unit price, and discount applied. Shipping address from eCommerce Pro becomes the Delivery Address on the Infor order; billing address becomes the Invoice Address. Coupons applied at checkout do not map to an Infor field; we flag each coupon as a pricing rule requiring rebuild in Infor Price Management post-migration.

eCommerce Pro

Inventory

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Warehouse and Stock

1:1
Mapping required

eCommerce Pro inventory levels per warehouse/location map to Infor Warehouse Management with location-level stock balances. Multi-warehouse setups in eCommerce Pro require us to either consolidate into a single Infor warehouse or create separate Infor Warehouse records per location. We use Infor's warehouse API to post opening stock balances during the migration window. Inventory valuation method (FIFO, average cost) must be agreed upon during scoping because Infor carries this at the company level and cannot be changed post-migration without a full inventory revaluation.

eCommerce Pro

Fulfillment

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Warehouse Task / ASN

1:1
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro Fulfillment records map to Infor Warehouse Management tasks and Advance Shipment Notices. Tracking numbers and carrier assignments migrate to the Infor shipment tracking fields. Historical fulfillments that are already closed in eCommerce Pro migrate as completed records; open fulfillments require coordination with the customer to either complete in eCommerce Pro before migration or recreate in Infor post-cutover.

eCommerce Pro

B2B Pricing Rule

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Price List / Volume Break

lossy
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro company-specific pricing lists and volume tiers map to Infor Price Management with customer-specific price lists attached to the Business Partner. Tiered pricing structures become Infor volume break rules with quantity thresholds. Custom catalogs (product subsets assigned to specific companies) map to Infor assortment or catalog functionality in the distribution module. The customer must validate all converted price rules against their commercial agreements before go-live because pricing errors affect revenue recognition.

eCommerce Pro

Coupon / Discount

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Price Management Rule

lossy
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro coupon types (percentage, fixed amount, buy-X-get-Y, free shipping) have no direct Infor equivalent. We extract every coupon code, discount type, minimum order value condition, and usage limit from the source and deliver a written Price Management rule inventory. The customer recreates these in Infor Price Management or as manual pricing overrides on orders. Percentage and fixed-amount discounts that apply at checkout require validation because Infor applies discounts at the line level rather than the order level.

eCommerce Pro

Gift Card

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Prepaid Card / Account

lossy
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro gift card balances and codes map to Infor Prepaid Card or Customer Account functionality depending on which Infor distribution module edition is deployed. Active gift card codes with remaining balances migrate as open prepaid records; redeemed or expired cards are logged as history without being created in Infor. The customer configures the gift card settlement workflow in Infor before migration since this affects how gift cards are applied to new orders.

eCommerce Pro

Product Image

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Item Image / DAM

1:1
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro product images migrate to Infor Item image attachments or to the connected Digital Asset Management system if the Infor CloudSuite deployment includes Infor Dion. Image URLs are validated and assets are optionally re-hosted to the Infor-managed storage. Variant-level images attach to the corresponding Infor Item variant. Rich media embeds and custom shortcodes in product descriptions are flagged for manual review post-migration.

eCommerce Pro

Tax Configuration

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Tax Authority / Tax Group

lossy
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro tax codes and nexus settings require manual reconfiguration in Infor Tax Management because Infor's tax engine operates independently of the source platform's tax mappings. We extract all tax codes, tax classes, and rate assignments from eCommerce Pro and deliver a tax mapping worksheet. The customer's Infor admin maps these to Infor Tax Authority and Tax Group records before go-live. Tax jurisdiction assignments must be validated per shipping state or country because nexus rules differ between platforms.

eCommerce Pro

Custom Object

maps to

Infor CloudSuite Corporate

Custom Table / ExtendM3

1:1
Fully supported

eCommerce Pro custom objects (Enterprise tier) migrate to Infor CloudSuite custom tables. We map the source custom object schema to Infor extendM3 or custom table structures depending on the CloudSuite edition deployed. Lookup relationships between custom objects and standard objects (Customer, Product, Order) resolve during migration by recreating the relationship keys in Infor's database schema. Custom object naming conventions are preserved with the customer's agreed Infor naming standard applied.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Open transactions must be frozen before Infor migration

    Infor requires all transactions in the external application database to be posted and closed before migration begins. Any unpaid invoices, open purchase orders, pending shipments, or unreceived inventory in eCommerce Pro creates data inconsistency in Infor CloudSuite at cutover. We coordinate a transaction freeze period with the customer's operations team, post all outstanding transactions in the source system, and verify zero open records before we begin the Infor migration database population. Skipping this step results in a split-state where some transactions exist in both systems with different IDs and statuses.

  • Dirty product data causes Item Master import failures

    eCommerce Pro product catalogs frequently contain duplicate SKUs, orphaned variants, missing images, and malformed descriptions with HTML that breaks in Infor's text fields. We enforce a mandatory data audit phase before migration: we deduplicate SKUs, resolve variant hierarchies, validate image URLs, and strip incompatible HTML from description fields. Products with invalid BOM references (component SKUs that do not exist) are flagged and held for manual resolution rather than migrated with broken structures that corrupt the Infor Item Master.

  • Coupon and promotion logic does not migrate as code

    eCommerce Pro coupons (percentage, fixed-amount, buy-X-get-Y, free shipping) and cart-level promotions have no direct equivalent in Infor CloudSuite. We do not recreate these as Infor Price Management rules during migration. We extract every coupon, its type, conditions, and usage history and deliver a written pricing rule inventory for the customer's Infor admin to rebuild in Infor Price Management post-migration. Order-level discounts that were applied via coupon at checkout will not automatically apply in Infor without this rebuild step.

  • Multi-warehouse inventory requires pre-migration warehouse design

    eCommerce Pro's multi-warehouse inventory model does not map directly to Infor's warehouse hierarchy, which operates at the company-warehouse-location level. We must agree on the Infor warehouse structure during scoping before any inventory data is written. Consolidating multiple eCommerce Pro warehouses into a single Infor warehouse changes the stock reporting and picking workflow. Splitting each eCommerce Pro warehouse into a separate Infor warehouse requires location-level configuration that affects the customer's WMS setup.

  • B2B pricing rebuild in Infor Price Management adds post-migration scope

    eCommerce Pro B2B pricing lists, volume tiers, and custom catalogs migrate as data, but the Infor Price Management rule logic that applies them to orders must be rebuilt. Price Management conditions, priority sequences, and override rules are configuration, not data, and do not copy between platforms. We deliver a price rule specification document for each migrated B2B pricing list so the customer's Infor consultant can reconstruct the logic. Orders placed during the rebuild window use list price until the rules are active.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful eCommerce Pro to Infor CloudSuite Corporate data migration

  1. Discovery and Infor edition scoping

    We audit the eCommerce Pro environment across product catalog (SKUs, variants, BOM structures), customer accounts (B2B company hierarchies, credit limits, pricing tiers), order history (total records, status distribution, coupon usage frequency), inventory (warehouse locations, stock valuation method, open PO count), and integration inventory (ERP connections, shipping carriers, payment gateways, email systems). We pair this with an Infor CloudSuite edition assessment: which modules are in scope (FSM, SCM, HCM), which Infor industry-specific edition applies (Distribution, Industrial, Fashion, Food and Beverage), and whether Infor OS and Infor Ming.le are required. The discovery output is a written migration scope with data volume estimates and Infor module recommendation.

  2. Source data audit and cleansing

    We run a mandatory data quality audit on the eCommerce Pro catalog before any migration design begins. We identify duplicate SKUs, orphaned variants, missing images, malformed HTML in descriptions, invalid BOM component references, and duplicate customer records. We produce a cleansing playbook with row-level fixes for each issue and execute the agreed corrections with the customer's approval. Cleansing is a prerequisite for Item Master migration because Infor does not allow duplicate Item Numbers and BOM integrity is required at import time.

  3. Infor schema design and migration database preparation

    We design the destination Infor CloudSuite schema including Item Master structure (UOM, stocking policies, BOM headers and components), Business Partner hierarchy (parent companies, ship-to, bill-to, contact persons), warehouse locations (per Infor's company-warehouse-location model), tax authority mappings (from the tax mapping worksheet), and price list attachments (per Business Partner). We set up the Infor migration database as a staging environment and configure Infor's data import templates for each entity type. This phase runs in parallel with the customer's Infor implementation partner configuring the core CloudSuite instance.

  4. Sandbox migration and reconciliation

    We run a full migration into the Infor staging environment using production-like data volume. The customer's Infor functional lead reconciles record counts (Items in, Business Partners in, Orders in, Stock balances in), spot-checks 25-50 random records against the eCommerce Pro source, and validates BOM structures and pricing rule data. We run a test order through the Infor order entry screen to verify that converted customer and item data flows correctly. Any mapping corrections are applied before the production migration begins.

  5. Transaction freeze and delta migration

    We coordinate a transaction freeze window with the customer's operations team. All new eCommerce Pro orders, inventory adjustments, and customer changes are halted during this window. We run a final delta export capturing any records created or modified since the sandbox migration. We validate zero open transactions in eCommerce Pro before writing to Infor production. The delta records are merged into the Infor migration load and validated for consistency before the cutover is confirmed.

  6. Production cutover and integration reconfiguration

    We execute the production migration in dependency order: Business Partners first (so Customer IDs are available for order linking), then Items and BOM structures, then Inventory opening balances, then Order history. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. We deliver the coupon and promotion inventory, tax mapping worksheet, integration reconfiguration playbook (shipping carriers, payment gateways, email systems), and the B2B pricing rule specification to the customer's Infor admin and implementation partner. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild eCommerce Pro workflows or automations in Infor; these are documented for the customer's Infor consultant to configure as a separate engagement.

  7. B2B pricing and coupon rebuild handoff

    We deliver the complete pricing rule inventory including every coupon code, discount type, conditions, and usage history, plus every B2B pricing list with its volume tiers and customer assignments. This document serves as the functional specification for Infor Price Management configuration. The customer's Infor consultant rebuilds these rules using the document; we validate the converted rules in a test order before go-live. This step is the most common source of post-migration revenue leakage if it is not completed before the store opens to live traffic.

Most migrations land between eight and twelve weeks for straightforward catalogs under 50,000 SKUs, 100,000 orders, and a single warehouse. Migrations with multi-warehouse inventory requiring location-level splits, BOM structures, large order histories, or B2B pricing rule mapping move to sixteen to twenty-four weeks because of Item Master sequencing, Infor API handling, and validation testing. The Infor CloudSuite implementation itself (hardware provisioning, core configuration, user training) runs in parallel and typically takes nine to eighteen months; our data migration scope fits within that window.
