Migrate from Infor SyteLine / Infor CloudSuite Industrial to Acumatica

SyteLine stores customers and ship-to addresses together. Each SyteLine customer becomes an Acumatica Customer record; each SyteLine ship-to becomes an Acumatica Customer Location linked by CustomerID. Primary ship-to defaults as the main location in Acumatica. Customer class maps to Acumatica Customer Class for AR posting rules.

SyteLine vendors migrate as Acumatica Vendors with one or more Vendor Locations. AP account class in SyteLine maps to Acumatica Vendor Class for posting. Remit-to addresses become additional vendor locations. Vendor contact records migrate to Acumatica Contact records linked to the vendor.

SyteLine contact records for both customer and vendor entities map to Acumatica Contacts. Each SyteLine contact becomes a Contact record in Acumatica, linked to either a Customer or Vendor entity based on its source. ContactOwner resolves to an Acumatica user by matching the email address. The Contact Class field in Acumatica differentiates between customer contacts and vendor contacts within the unified contact directory, preserving the original relationship type.

SyteLine stock and non-stock items map to Acumatica Non-Stock and Stock items. Item class maps to Acumatica Item Class for posting and warehouse settings. The source item ID becomes the Acumatica Inventory ID. Lot/Serial tracking flag in SyteLine (Item Master) controls whether Acumatica requires lot or serial number tracking on the item.

SyteLine multi-level BOMs map to Acumatica Bills of Materials with version control. Each BOM revision in SyteLine becomes a distinct BOM version in Acumatica. Phantom BOMs in SyteLine translate to Acumatica phantom BOMs. BOM line quantities and scrap factors are preserved. Routings linked to BOMs in SyteLine Engineering map to Acumatica Material Routings.

SyteLine work centers map to Acumatica Work Centers with labor rates and machine rates. Operation sequences in SyteLine become steps in Acumatica's Material Routing. Crew size and efficiency factors in SyteLine's routing translate to Acumatica's labor size and efficiency fields.

Open SyteLine sales orders migrate to Acumatica Sales Orders with line items, scheduled shipments, and warehouse assignments. Order types in SyteLine map to Acumatica Order Types for AR posting and fulfillment workflow. Completed and invoiced orders migrate as historical records for reporting continuity. Customer PO number maps to Acumatica's Reference Nbr. field.

Open SyteLine purchase orders migrate as Acumatica Purchase Orders. Line items, vendor part numbers, and promised dates transfer. Completed POs with open receipts migrate as historical records. Landed costs on SyteLine PO lines map to Acumatica shipment landed cost entries. Branch ID on PO lines maps to Acumatica's branch-aware warehouse assignment.

SyteLine jobs are the most complex migration object. Each job carries material allocations, operation-level scheduling, labor tickets, and close status. We map SyteLine job status (Released, Complete, Closed) to Acumatica Production Order status (Balanced, In Process, Completed). Material issues in SyteLine become material allocation and issue entries in Acumatica. Operation labor from SyteLine job tickets maps to labor entries on Acumatica production operations.

SyteLine quotes migrate to Acumatica Quotes. Quote lines with configured items (if SyteLine CPQ is used) require material and labor line translation. Expiration dates and quote status map to Acumatica Quote expiration and active/closed status. Quote type in SyteLine determines Acumatica Quote type for opportunity linkage.

SyteLine project tracking (engineer-to-order cost tracking) maps to Acumatica Projects with tasks per phase. Budget vs. actual cost tracking in SyteLine translates to Acumatica Project budget lines and actuals. Non-project transactions in SyteLine link to a default project in Acumatica for reporting continuity.

SyteLine lot and serial number genealogy records — tracking where lots were built and what components they contain — migrate to Acumatica Lot/Serial History tables. Transaction timestamps and warehouse location assignments from SyteLine transfer to preserve the full movement timeline. For engineer-to-order lots with strict traceability requirements, we establish explicit lot references directly on the corresponding Acumatica production order to maintain complete backward traceability through the manufacturing chain.

SyteLine GL accounts map to Acumatica GL Accounts using the same account code structure where possible. Account segment mapping depends on SyteLine's chart of accounts design — single-segment charts map 1:1; multi-segment charts map to Acumatica's branch/department segments. Subaccount structure in SyteLine maps to Acumatica subaccounts.

SyteLine UDFs on any entity (customer, item, order, job) require a custom field in Acumatica on the equivalent screen. We audit all SyteLine UDFs before migration, create Acumatica custom fields in the target entity's screen, and map UDF values during data migration. UDF data types (date, number, text, list) map to the closest Acumatica field type.

SyteLine sites (multi-warehouse) map to Acumatica Branches, each containing one or more Warehouses. If SyteLine uses a single site, we create one Acumatica branch with a default warehouse. Inventory balances per SyteLine site become on-hand quantities per Acumatica warehouse. Inter-site transfers in SyteLine become inter-warehouse transfers in Acumatica.
