Overview
Moving from Farvision ERP to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial is a multi-phase migration that must bridge two fundamentally different architectures. Farvision stores data in MongoDB using document nesting and project-wise accounting segregation, while Infor Cloudsuite Industrial requires SQL Server for its migration utility and a flat chart-of-accounts structure with Cost Centers for project segmentation. We extract directly from Farvision's MongoDB, normalize the document hierarchy into relational tables, map project-level account codes to Cost Centers or Business Units, and load via Infor CloudSuite Industrial's Migration Utility with sequenced dependency ordering. We do not migrate Workflows, automations, or Forms as code; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's implementation team to rebuild in Infor Process Automation or Mongoose.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Farvision 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.
Farvision ERP
Projects (all lifecycle stages)
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Business Unit / Cost Center
1:1Farvision Projects spanning Land Acquisition through Post-Sales map to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial Business Units and Cost Centers. The project lifecycle stages (Land, Legal, Pre-Sales, Post-Sales, Budget, Execution) map to Cost Center hierarchies within the Business Unit. We extract the project-to-account-code crosswalk from Farvision's MongoDB documents and translate it into Infor's Cost Center structure during the discovery phase. Project milestones map to Milestone or Task records in Infor Cloudsuite Industrial with project-wise status tracking preserved.
Farvision ERP
Customers / Accounts
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Business Partner (Customer)
1:1Farvision CRM module Customers map to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial Business Partner records with role = Customer. We preserve all customer properties, contact details, and custom fields extracted from MongoDB, using email and phone as dedupe keys during import. Farvision's customer-specific pricing agreements map to Infor's Customer Price Agreement or Trade Agreement records. Customer financial standing and credit limits transfer to the Business Partner credit management fields.
Farvision ERP
Properties / Units
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Item or Asset
1:1Farvision Property records tied to specific Projects map to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial Item or Asset records. Project-to-property associations migrate as Item Warehouse records or Asset Project Links. We preserve unit type (apartment, villa, plot), floor, wing, area in sq ft, facing, and property status fields as custom fields on the Item or Asset record. Farvision's sold/unsold/blocked status maps to Infor's Item or Asset status field.
Farvision ERP
Sales Orders and Contracts
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Sales Order / Agreement
1:1Farvision Sales Orders tied to Properties and Customers map to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial Sales Order or Agreement records. Farvision payment schedules (booking amount, installment milestones, possession-linked payments) require transformation into Infor Sales Order line schedules or separate Agreement milestone records, since Infor Cloudsuite Industrial's standard sales order uses different milestone semantics than Farvision's real estate payment structures.
Farvision ERP
Invoices and Billing Records
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
AR Invoice / Invoice
1:1Farvision Client Billing records map to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial Accounts Receivable Invoice records. We preserve billing history including payment milestones, installment tracking, and payment status from Farvision's Post-Sales module. Invoices are linked to the corresponding Customer Business Partner and Project Cost Center for project-wise financial reporting. Closed invoices carry their original billing dates; pending installments are flagged for reconciliation in the customer's accounting team post-migration.
Farvision ERP
Stores and Inventory
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Item / Warehouse
1:1Farvision Stores and Procurement inventory records map to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial Item and Warehouse records. Farvision's materials, stock tracking, and unit-of-measure conventions require explicit mapping to Infor's unit-of-measure system. Inventory valuation methods (FIFO, average cost) in Farvision map to Infor's costing method configuration. Procurement records and supplier information map to Business Partner records with role = Supplier.
Farvision ERP
Payroll and Employee Records
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Employee / HCM Record
1:1Farvision HR and Payroll module Employee Life Cycle records map to Infor Cloudsuite HCM or HR tables. We migrate employee records and compensation history including salary components, deduction preferences, and leave balances. Farvision's payroll effective-dated records require careful mapping to Infor's effective-dated HR structure, and we flag these records for manual verification by the customer's HR team post-migration to confirm benefit enrollment, tax jurisdiction, and compliance settings are accurate.
Farvision ERP
Activities and Activity Groups
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Activity / Workflow Activity
1:1Farvision Activity records and Activity Group associations map to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial Activity or Workflow Activity records. We extract activities from Farvision's YouTube-documented import/export format and translate group associations into Infor's activity grouping structure. Farvision's custom activity types and status values map to Infor's configurable activity categories. Activity timestamps and owner assignments migrate directly with owner resolved via User mapping.
Farvision ERP
Payment Types Master
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Payment Term / Method
1:1Farvision Payment Types Master configuration maps to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial Payment Term records. We preserve the configured payment type structure including installment frequency, due date rules, and applicable property types. Farvision custom payment types (advance, milestone-linked, post-dated cheque, online) map to Infor's Payment Term or Method with the corresponding due date calculation logic maintained. Payment Type Group associations transfer as Payment Term Group assignments.
Farvision ERP
Places Management
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Location / Geographic Hierarchy
1:1Farvision Places Management stores country and state hierarchies with project-specific location trees. We preserve the full location hierarchy including project sites, wing/block assignments, and regional groupings. Geographic levels (country, state, city, project site, building, floor) map to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial's location or address structure with the same parent-child relationship intact. Regional and zone configurations from Farvision map to Infor's geographic classification fields.
Farvision ERP
Engineering / QS Records
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Engineering / QS Data
1:1Farvision Engineering module covers Quantity Surveying and billing records with industry-specific structures unique to real estate and infrastructure cost management. We extract these records from MongoDB and map them to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial's Engineering or QS data structures with field-level mapping to standard ERP formats. Farvision's project-specific cost codes, rate analysis, and bill of quantities entries are preserved as Engineering records linked to the corresponding project Cost Center. These records are flagged for customer review due to the industry-specific nature of the data structures.
Farvision ERP
Custom Fields
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Custom Fields
lossyFarvision's customization capabilities generate custom fields across objects that we migrate with explicit field-to-field mapping. We extract custom field definitions from Farvision's MongoDB document schemas and translate them to Infor Cloudsuite Industrial custom field configurations. Unsupported field types (Farvision-specific picklists, calculated fields, document attachments) are flagged in the migration inventory for manual configuration in Infor CloudSuite Industrial's form designer post-migration. Custom field values migrate as data values only; the customer configures the destination field definition before or immediately after data load.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and audit
We audit Farvision ERP across all active modules, identifying which are in current use versus historical archive. We document the full MongoDB schema for each object including nested arrays, custom fields, and inter-document references. We capture the project-wise accounting structure: every project, its assigned account codes, and cost allocation logic. We record Payment Types, Places hierarchies, Activities, and contract terms including auto-renewal dates. The discovery output is a written migration scope with object inventory, MongoDB document map, and a project-wise accounting crosswalk template.
Infor Cloudsuite target schema design
We design the destination schema in Infor Cloudsuite Industrial, mapping all Farvision objects to their Infor equivalents. This includes Business Unit and Cost Center hierarchy for project-wise accounting segregation, Business Partner configuration for customers and suppliers, Item and Asset setup for properties and inventory, payment term mapping, location hierarchy setup, and activity category configuration. Custom fields are provisioned in Infor CloudSuite Industrial with types matched to Farvision's data. Schema is deployed to a Sandbox or staging environment for validation before production migration begins.
MongoDB extraction and transformation
We extract data directly from Farvision's MongoDB database, writing scripts that traverse the document hierarchy and normalize nested structures into flat relational tables compatible with Infor CloudSuite Industrial's migration utility requirements. Project-wise accounting segregation is translated into Cost Center and Business Unit assignments. Inter-document references (project-to-customer, property-to-project) are resolved during extraction. Transformed datasets are validated against source record counts and financial totals before loading into the Infor CloudSuite migration database.
Infor CloudSuite migration utility setup and sequencing
We set up the Infor CloudSuite Industrial migration database and configure the Import Parameters to connect to the transformed source SQL database. We specify source and target table mappings on the Import Source Tables and Import Target Tables forms, and define the import sequence to respect dependency order: reference data first (payment types, locations), then Customers, then Projects and Properties, Sales Orders, Invoices, Stores, Employees, Activities, and Custom Fields last. We run Preliminary Data Transfer with the Data Assessment Report to validate schema mapping and data type compatibility before finalizing.
Sandbox validation and sign-off
We run a full migration into a staging or Sandbox environment using production-like data volumes from Farvision. The customer validates record counts for each object, spot-checks 25-50 records against the source for field accuracy, and confirms the Cost Center structure reflects their project-wise accounting logic. We resolve any mapping corrections identified during validation before proceeding to production. The customer signs off the schema, mapping, and validation report before we schedule the production migration window.
Production migration and cutover
We run production migration in dependency order: reference data, Customers, Projects and Properties, Sales Orders, Invoices and AR, Stores, Employees, Activities, and Custom Fields. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report; we validate that total debits equal total credits on financial records against the Farvision trial balance. We freeze Farvision writes during cutover, migrate any delta records created during the window, and switch Infor CloudSuite Industrial to production. We deliver the Workflow and Automation inventory document and support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues.
