Overview
ERP Mark 7 organizes data in modular tables for manufacturing, inventory, financials, and supply chain — priced per user, which creates predictable cost at small scale but becomes a scaling bottleneck as teams grow. Acumatica replaces the per-user model with a resource-consumption pricing structure that includes unlimited named users across all modules, making it structurally more cost-effective for mid-market manufacturers expanding headcount. The migration carries everything ERP Mark 7 stores natively — customers, vendors, stock and non-stock items, BOMs, open sales orders, purchase orders, and GL account balances — into Acumatica's entity model. The harder translation points are inventory valuation layers (standard cost vs. average cost), ERP Mark 7 custom fields that have no native Acumatica equivalent, and open manufacturing orders that need a status-aware import into Acumatica's Manufacturing Order screen. Workflows, approval chains, and custom scripting in ERP Mark 7 do not migrate — FlitStack exports the workflow definitions as a rebuild reference for your Acumatica implementation team. The migration uses API-based extraction from ERP Mark 7's export endpoints and bulk-import into Acumatica via the Import by Scenario framework, with a 24–48 hour delta-pickup window capturing changes made during the cutover window.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a ERP Mark 7 object lands in Acumatica, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
ERP Mark 7
Customer
Acumatica
Customer
1:1ERP Mark 7 customer records map 1:1 to Acumatica Customer entities. Each record carries customer name, class, status, payment terms, credit limit, and primary contact info. Acumatica's CustomerClassId field determines the default payment terms and GL accounts — FlitStack maps ERP Mark 7's customer class codes to Acumatica Customer Class records created before the migration runs.
ERP Mark 7
Vendor
Acumatica
Vendor
1:1ERP Mark 7 vendor master records map to Acumatica Vendor entities with direct field correspondence for vendor name, address, payment terms, and tax ID. ERP Mark 7's vendor status (active/inactive) maps to Acumatica's Vendor Status field. Remit-to addresses stored as separate ERP Mark 7 records import as VendorLocation records in Acumatica.
ERP Mark 7
Stock Item
Acumatica
StockItem
1:1ERP Mark 7 stock items map to Acumatica StockItem records. The inventory valuation method (standard, average, FIFO) stored in ERP Mark 7 transfers as the ValuationMethod field on the StockItem. Primary warehouse assignment from ERP Mark 7 maps to the DefaultWarehouse field. Unit of measure conversions between ERP Mark 7's UOM definitions and Acumatica's UOM classes require a UOM class pre-created in Acumatica before item migration.
ERP Mark 7
Non-Stock Item
Acumatica
Non-StockItem
1:1ERP Mark 7 non-stock items (services, freight, special charges) map to Acumatica Non-Stock Items. These records do not carry inventory quantities but do carry default account assignments for revenue and cost. FlitStack maps ERP Mark 7's revenue account and cost account from each non-stock item to Acumatica's SalesAccount and COGSAccount on the Non-Stock Item.
ERP Mark 7
Bill of Materials (BOM)
Acumatica
BOM + BOMRevision + BOMLine
1:1ERP Mark 7 BOMs with single or multi-level structures require decomposition into Acumatica's BOMRevision (which holds the revision number, effective date, and status) and BOMLine records (which link each component StockItem, quantity per, and scrap percentage). Multi-level ERP Mark 7 BOMs with sub-assemblies require recursive BOM creation in Acumatica — the top-level finished good becomes one BOM Revision whose lines reference sub-assembly BOMs.
ERP Mark 7
Sales Order
Acumatica
SOOrder + SOLine
1:1ERP Mark 7 open sales orders map to Acumatica Sales Orders with separate SOLine records per line. Partially fulfilled lines from ERP Mark 7 (where shipped quantity is less than ordered quantity) require the open quantity to be computed and set as the OrderQty on the Acumatica SOLine with a ShippedQty of zero — the remainder ships after go-live using Acumatica's shipment confirmation flow. Order dates, promised dates, and customer PO numbers map directly.
ERP Mark 7
Purchase Order
Acumatica
POOrder + POLine
1:1ERP Mark 7 open purchase orders map to Acumatica Purchase Orders with POLine records per line. Receipts already completed in ERP Mark 7 do not re-import — the received quantity on each line is set to match ERP Mark 7's receipt total, leaving only the open quantity to be received through Acumatica's AP bill entry after go-live. Vendor and terms data cross-references the vendor mapping completed earlier in the migration.
ERP Mark 7
GL Account
Acumatica
Account
1:1ERP Mark 7 GL account codes and descriptions map to Acumatica Chart of Accounts records. Account type (asset, liability, equity, revenue, expense) from ERP Mark 7 determines the AccountType field in Acumatica. Subaccount segments in ERP Mark 7 map to Acumatica's subaccount dimension structure — your Acumatica implementation team configures the subaccount mask before the migration validates.
ERP Mark 7
AP Invoice (open)
Acumatica
APInvoice
1:1ERP Mark 7 open AP invoices import as Acumatica AP Bills. Invoice number, vendor reference, invoice date, due date, and total amount map directly. Line-level detail for items, miscellaneous charges, and taxes requires the POLine cross-reference from the purchase order mapping. ERP Mark 7 payment terms drive the DueDate calculation on each APInvoice record.
ERP Mark 7
AR Invoice (open)
Acumatica
ARInvoice
1:1ERP Mark 7 open AR invoices import as Acumatica AR Invoices. Customer reference, invoice number, invoice date, due date, and amount map directly. Cash applications already recorded in ERP Mark 7 (payments matched to invoices) do not re-import — the invoice lands with a zero open balance in Acumatica and the applied payment history is preserved as a reference note.
ERP Mark 7
Manufacturing Order
Acumatica
ManufacturingOrder
1:1ERP Mark 7 open manufacturing work orders map to Acumatica Production Orders. The BOM reference from ERP Mark 7's work order resolves to an Acumatica BOMRevision during import. Material issues already completed in ERP Mark 7 are not replicated — the production order lands with the remaining material demand and labor hours to be recorded through Acumatica's production entry screens post-go-live. Order status (released, in process, completed) maps directly.
ERP Mark 7
Custom Fields (Customer / Vendor / Item)
Acumatica
Custom Field (DAC Extension)
1:1ERP Mark 7 user-defined fields on customers, vendors, and items have no native equivalent in Acumatica's standard schema. Each custom field requires an Acumatica customization project with a matching data type (string, number, date, picklist). FlitStack delivers a custom field creation plan specifying the field name, data type, and which DAC it extends before migration data lands, so Acumatica's validation rules fire correctly.
ERP Mark 7
Item Cost Layers
Acumatica
INItemCostDetail
1:1ERP Mark 7 maintains separate cost layers per lot or per receipt for average-cost and FIFO items. These import as INItemCostDetail records in Acumatica, one per layer with quantity, unit cost, and receipt date. Standard-cost items import the current standard cost as a single cost record. Lot-controlled items link cost layers to the specific lot number in Acumatica's INLotSerial class.
ERP Mark 7
ERP Mark 7 Workflow / Approval Rules
Acumatica
No Equivalent
1:1ERP Mark 7 approval chains and conditional workflow rules (e.g., PO approval thresholds, order-hold logic) are internal business process automation. They do not transfer to Acumatica — Acumatica's approval workflow engine (based on Business Events and automation screens) requires separate configuration. FlitStack exports ERP Mark 7 workflow definitions as a structured reference document your Acumatica admin uses to rebuild the logic.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit ERP Mark 7 data and pre-create Acumatica schema
FlitStack runs a data audit against the ERP Mark 7 source environment — counting customers, vendors, stock and non-stock items, open orders, purchase orders, BOMs, and manufacturing orders. We simultaneously deliver a schema pre-creation checklist: Acumatica CustomerClass records, VendorClass records, INItemClass records, Terms, UOM classes, and custom fields from the ERP Mark 7 custom field audit. Your Acumatica admin (or our team) creates these entities before any data migration runs so that foreign-key validation passes on the first pass. Any BOM-level or subaccount configuration is also confirmed at this stage.
Extract master data: customers, vendors, and chart of accounts
The migration begins with the foundational entities that other records depend on. ERP Mark 7 customer, vendor, and GL account records export via the ERP Mark 7 API export endpoints and load into Acumatica through the Customer (AR303000), Vendor (AP303000), and Chart of Accounts (GL202500) import screens. Cross-reference tables are built in parallel — each ERP Mark 7 customer ID and vendor ID is mapped to its new Acumatica AcctCD. This cross-reference file is the lookup key used for every subsequent order and transaction import. ERP Mark 7 subaccount segments are mapped to Acumatica subaccount dimensions based on the mask configuration your Acumatica admin defined.
Migrate inventory items and cost layers before open orders
Inventory items are extracted from ERP Mark 7 in two passes. The first pass loads StockItem and Non-StockItem records with their valuation method, item class, UOM, and warehouse assignments. The second pass — which runs immediately after — loads INItemCostDetail records for each item's cost layers (average, standard, or FIFO), preserving receipt date and quantity. This sequencing is required because Acumatica validates on-hand quantities against cost records. BOM records follow inventory, mapping each ERP Mark 7 BOM to a BOMRevision and its BOMLines. Multi-level BOMs are identified and decomposed recursively, with phantom sub-assemblies flagged using Acumatica's BOMLine configuration.
Run sample migration with field-level diff on sales and purchase orders
Before committing the full order dataset, FlitStack runs a sample import covering 50–100 open sales orders and purchase orders. The sample includes orders with partial fulfillment, orders referencing lot-controlled items, and purchase orders with mixed receipt statuses. We generate a field-level diff report comparing each ERP Mark 7 order field against the corresponding Acumatica SOOrder or POOrder field after import. You review the diff and approve the mapping before the full batch runs. This is the checkpoint where open manufacturing orders are also reviewed — their BOM and site resolution is confirmed before the production order batch is cleared to run.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup and post-import validation
The full migration batch runs against Acumatica using the Import by Scenario framework for orders and direct API load for master data. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours opens simultaneously — any ERP Mark 7 records created or modified during the cutover window are captured and imported in a second pass. After both passes, FlitStack runs a reconciliation comparing ERP Mark 7 record counts and balance totals (AP total, AR total, inventory on-hand value by class) against Acumatica GL trial balance entries. A discrepancy report flags any record that did not balance or validate, with recommended corrections. One-click rollback is available if the reconciliation falls outside the agreed tolerance threshold.
