Overview
Moving from Furious to Microsoft Dynamics 365 is an agency operations migration that requires translating a mid-market agency ERP schema into one of Microsoft's modular ERP tiers. Furious organizes work around agency-specific objects—Clients, Projects, Quotes, Purchase Orders, and Invoices with integrated time tracking—while Dynamics 365 separates CRM entities (Accounts, Contacts) from ERP entities (Sales Quotes, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Projects) depending on whether you deploy Business Central for SMB or Finance and Operations for enterprise scale. We map Furious Clients to Dynamics 365 Accounts, Furious Projects to Dynamics 365 Jobs or Opportunities based on their type, and preserve time entries against the correct project and user references. Open invoices require a cutover status snapshot because payment status can change between the migration window and go-live. Workflows, automations, and reporting configurations do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of these for your admin to rebuild in Dynamics 365.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Furious object lands in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Furious
Client
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Account
1:1Furious Clients migrate 1:1 to Dynamics 365 Accounts. Standard fields (name, email, address, phone, contact info) map directly. We use the company name as the dedupe key. If the agency also uses Dynamics 365 CRM apps, a Contact record is created from the primary Client contact and linked to the Account. Address formats require normalization against Dynamics 365's composite address schema before import.
Furious
Project
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Job (Business Central) or Project (F&O)
lossyFurious Projects map to either a Business Central Job or a Finance and Operations Project entity depending on the destination tier. We determine the correct entity during scoping based on project type, billing model, and whether the agency uses Project Operations. Project status (Active, On Hold, Completed) maps to the destination's corresponding status field. Custom project fields map field-by-field to custom fields pre-created in the destination schema. Tasks under the project map to Job Tasks or WBS lines respectively.
Furious
Quote
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Sales Quote
1:1Furious Quotes map to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Quote or Sales Order depending on whether the quote is open or has been accepted. Line items migrate with product description, quantity, unit price, and discount. Quote-to-project linkage is preserved by creating the corresponding Job or Project before the Quote import so that the parent reference is satisfied. Custom quote fields map to custom fields on the destination Quote object.
Furious
Invoice
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Sales Invoice
1:1Furious Invoices migrate to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Invoice. We map the client reference, invoice number, line items, amounts, and tax fields. Open invoices are flagged for manual status verification post-migration because any payments processed in Furious between the cutover snapshot and go-live require double-bookkeeping reconciliation. Historical paid invoices migrate with full line detail. Invoice PDFs are flagged for manual re-upload to SharePoint or the document management system.
Furious
Purchase Order
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Purchase Order
1:1Furious Purchase Orders map to Dynamics 365 Purchase Orders with vendor reference, PO number, line items, and amounts. Vendor records must be created in Dynamics 365 before PO import so that the vendor lookup is satisfied at insert time. If Furious vendors do not exist as Dynamics 365 Vendors, we create them first during the vendor preparation phase. PO status (Draft, Submitted, Received) maps to the corresponding Purchase Order Status values.
Furious
Time Entry
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Time Sheet Line (Business Central) or Project Time Entry (F&O)
1:1Time entries associate to a user, project, and task in Furious. We resolve the user reference to a Dynamics 365 Worker or User record, the project reference to a Job or Project, and the task reference to a Job Task or WBS Activity. Billable and non-billable flags map to the destination's billable field. Hours and duration values migrate directly. Time entries with no valid project reference are held in a reconciliation queue for admin review before import.
Furious
Task
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Job Task (Business Central) or Project Activity (F&O)
1:1Furious Tasks belong to Projects and have assignees, status, due dates, and optionally hours. We map tasks to the correct Job Task or Project Activity in the destination based on the parent project's entity type. Task custom fields migrate field-by-field to custom fields on the destination task entity. Task status values are mapped to the corresponding Dynamics 365 task status values during transformation.
Furious
User / Team Member
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
User or Worker
1:1Furious user records (name, email, role) map to Dynamics 365 Users or Workers depending on whether the destination uses HR integration. We match by email as the primary key. Role strings from Furious do not map directly to Dynamics 365 security roles; we flag each role assignment for manual review post-import and assign the closest Dynamics 365 security role as a default. Inactive users are excluded unless the customer specifies they should be migrated.
Furious
Custom Fields (Project-Level)
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Custom Fields
1:1Furious custom fields on Projects, Quotes, Invoices, and Tasks require individual field-level mapping during the discovery phase. We discover the full custom field schema, map each field name and type to the nearest Dynamics 365 field type (text, number, date, boolean, option set), pre-create custom fields in the destination schema before data import, and apply them at migration time. Fields with no destination equivalent are flagged for manual post-migration entry.
Furious
Documents / Attachments
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
SharePoint or Dataverse Attachments
1:1Furious stores binary file attachments linked to projects, quotes, and invoices. We do not migrate binary file attachments. We flag every record with an attachment and provide a CSV inventory of the records and attachment types for manual re-upload to SharePoint Online, Dataverse, or the Dynamics 365 document management system. Customers should audit attachment volume during discovery to allocate time for re-uploading.
Furious
Quote Line Item
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Sales Line
1:1Quote line items migrate as Sales Lines attached to the parent Sales Quote or Sales Order. We resolve the product or service reference, map quantity, unit price, unit of measure, and discount percentage. If the product does not exist in Dynamics 365, we create it as a non-inventory item during the product preparation phase before line item import.
Furious
Invoice Line Item
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Sales Invoice Line
1:1Invoice line items migrate as Sales Invoice Lines attached to the parent Sales Invoice. Product or service descriptions, quantities, unit prices, tax codes, and amounts transfer directly. Line-level discounts map to the discount percent or amount field. Tax codes require mapping to the destination tax group configuration set up in Dynamics 365 before invoice import.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and destination edition assessment
We audit the source Furious instance across custom fields, active projects, open quotes and invoices, time entry volume, vendor records, user list, and attachment inventory. We pair this with a Dynamics 365 edition assessment: Business Central Essentials ($70/user/mo) for agencies that need core financials, sales, and project tracking; Business Central Premium ($100/user/mo) for agencies requiring full project management with time sheets; Finance and Operations with Project Operations ($210/user/mo) for agencies needing advanced Work Breakdown Structure scheduling and resource capacity planning. The discovery output is a written migration scope, object inventory, and Dynamics 365 edition recommendation.
Schema design and custom field pre-creation
We design the destination Dynamics 365 schema based on the Furious object inventory. This includes creating custom fields in the destination system for each Furious custom field discovered during scoping, defining the project entity type (Job or Project), configuring Sales Quote and Sales Order number series, mapping Furious task structures to Job Tasks or WBS Activities, and setting up the vendor and chart of accounts. Schema is deployed to a Dynamics 365 Sandbox environment first for validation before any data moves.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Dynamics 365 Sandbox using production-like data volume. The customer's operations or finance lead reconciles record counts (Clients in, Projects in, Quotes in, Invoices in, Purchase Orders in, Time Entries in), spot-checks 25-50 records against the Furious source for field-level accuracy, and verifies that task hierarchies and time entry associations land under the correct parent records. The customer signs off on the sandbox migration before production migration begins. Any mapping corrections happen in sandbox, not in production.
Vendor and user preparation
We extract every distinct vendor from Furious Purchase Orders and every distinct user from Furious Projects, Quotes, Invoices, and Time Entries. Vendors without a matching Dynamics 365 Vendor record are created first so that Purchase Order import resolves the vendor lookup. Users are matched by email against the Dynamics 365 User table. Users without a matching Dynamics 365 User go to a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes. Owner assignments on Projects and Quotes are resolved at this stage.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Vendors first (for PO lookup resolution), then Accounts (from Furious Clients), then Projects or Jobs (with parent Accounts resolved), then Sales Quotes (with Projects/Jobs resolved), then Purchase Orders (with Vendors and Projects/Jobs resolved), then Sales Invoices (with Accounts and Projects/Jobs resolved), then Tasks, then Time Entries (with Worker/User, Project, and Task references resolved). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Custom field values are applied at the same time as their parent record import.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze writes in Furious during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Dynamics 365 as the system of record. We deliver a written inventory of Furious workflows, automations, and custom report configurations requiring rebuild in Dynamics 365, along with a recommended mapping to Dynamics 365 workflows or Power Automate. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve any reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Furious automations as Dynamics 365 workflows inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement or an internal admin task.
