Migrate your Foundry Bean data
Cloud ERP consolidating accounting, finance, supply chain, HR, CRM, and analytics into one multi-entity platform with subscription billing and ASC 606 revenue recognition.
In its favor
Why people choose Foundry Bean
The signal that keeps Foundry Bean on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Single-platform consolidation across finance, HR, and CRM appeals to mid-market companies seeking to replace multiple disconnected systems with one coherent data source.
Multi-subsidiary and multi-currency support makes it practical for holding companies and international operations to run one global chart of accounts and consolidate across legal entities.
ASC 606 automated revenue recognition built into the platform reduces manual compliance work for subscription and contract-heavy businesses operating under accounting standards.
Subscription billing with flat-fee, usage-based, volume, and tiered pricing accommodates diverse billing models within a single system without requiring external billing tools.
Cloud access from any device with no infrastructure management attracts teams that want ERP capability without dedicated IT overhead to manage it.
Limited public documentation and absence of a mature third-party ecosystem make integration with specialized tools harder than on more established ERP platforms.
Pricing escalates significantly beyond entry-level tiers, with Business Pro at $9.99/user/month and Premium at $24.99/user/month, making cost predictability difficult at scale.
No meaningful public review presence means prospective customers have no peer validation of implementation experience, support quality, or real-world reliability.
Smaller teams report the feature depth feels disproportionate to their needs, with HCM and supply chain modules designed for larger organizational workflows.

What gets migrated
Foundry Bean object support
Object-by-object support for Foundry Bean migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Chart of Accounts
Mapping requiredAccounts are organized into Balance Sheet and Income Statement categories automatically. We map each account code and type to the destination chart, preserving the platform's automatic categorization logic by recreating account-category assignments in the target system.
Customers
Fully supportedCustomer records include addresses, contacts, payment terms, and are linked to invoices and receivables. Standard fields migrate cleanly; custom fields require explicit value mapping between systems.
Vendors
Fully supportedVendor master records contain addresses, banking information, purchase orders, terms, and contracts. We preserve the full vendor lifecycle linkage to purchase orders and payable records during migration.
Employees
Mapping requiredEmployee records include compensation history, benefits, and organizational assignments. Effective-dated changes require careful sequencing; we import current state first, then apply historical compensation and job-title changes chronologically.
Items
Mapping requiredItems support inventory tracking across multiple warehouses and locations. We map item numbers, costing methods, and warehouse assignments, flagging any custom pricing tiers that do not map directly to the destination schema.
Invoices
Fully supportedSales invoices, recurring invoices, and subscription-generated invoices are standard objects. We preserve invoice-to-payment linkages and aging data, mapping invoice status to the destination's lifecycle states.
Expense Reports
Mapping requiredEmployee-submitted expense reports auto-convert to vendor invoices upon approval in Foundry Bean. We extract the approval workflow state before conversion and recreate the two-record relationship in the target system.
Subscriptions
Mapping requiredSubscription billing supports flat fee, usage-based, volume, and tiered pricing. Each subscription record links to a billing schedule and generates invoices. We map the active pricing model and any tiered rate definitions; volume and tiered pricing tiers require custom field mapping to match destination pricing logic.
Contracts
Fully supportedContract records link to subscription billing and revenue recognition schedules. We preserve contract-to-revenue schedule linkages and map the recognition method to the destination's ASC 606 configuration.
Purchase Orders
Fully supportedPurchase orders link vendors to items and drive invoice processing. We migrate open and closed PO history, preserving the PO-to-invoice relationship for procure-to-pay audit trails.
Bank Accounts
Fully supportedBank and credit card accounts with real-time balance tracking and auto-reconciliation are stored as distinct objects. We map account numbers, bank details, and opening balances to the destination cash management module.
General Ledger Transactions
Fully supportedAll journal entries from bank reconciliation, invoice processing, and manual entries are stored chronologically. We extract full GL transaction history including adjustment entries, preserving the debit-credit structure and account assignments.
Revenue Recognition Schedules
Mapping requiredASC 606-compliant schedules are generated from contracts and subscription billing. Each schedule has milestone or time-based recognition rules. We map recognition start dates, amounts, and method types; schedules tied to multi-entity contracts require additional entity assignment mapping.
Custom Objects
Mapping requiredThe platform does not expose a documented custom object API in public documentation. Any customer-defined objects must be catalogued during discovery; we map them to custom tables or fields in the destination, noting that the source schema may require manual field enumeration before migration.
