Overview
Moving from INNERGY ERP to Epicor ERP is a cross-domain migration: INNERGY's millwork-specific data model (Estimates, CAD-auto-generated BOMs, multi-division cost pools, change orders spanning Job hierarchies) must be understood against Epicor Kinetic's discrete manufacturing schema before any mapping rule is written. We perform a pre-migration object audit against INNERGY's live schema to identify all non-standard fields, division-specific naming conventions, and change order lineage that resists simple 1:1 mapping. We preserve the full change order log as a structured linked table rather than collapsing it into the Job record, so auditors and project managers retain sequence fidelity. Estimates map to Epicor Quote or Order Header; Jobs map to Epicor Job with JobHead and JobMtl records; CAD-generated BOMs decompose into Epicor's multi-level BOM structure with operations routing. Workflows, automations, and INNERGY's CAD-to-ERP integration logic do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's admin to rebuild in Epicor Kinetic.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a INNERGY ERP object lands in Epicor Prophet 21, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
INNERGY ERP
Estimates
Epicor Prophet 21
Quote / OrderHeader
1:1INNERGY Estimates cover material takeoffs, labor assumptions, and margin calculation for custom millwork jobs. They map to Epicor Kinetic Quote or Sales Order records depending on whether the Estimate has been converted to a sold job. Line items from the Estimate become QuoteLine or OrderDtl records. We preserve margin calculation logic as a custom field on the Quote since Epicor's standard margin fields operate differently from INNERGY's markup model.
INNERGY ERP
Jobs
Epicor Prophet 21
Job
1:1INNERGY Jobs represent the core project record tracking from award through installation. They map to Epicor Kinetic Job records via JobHead with all project metadata, status history, assigned staff, and division cost pool references. INNERGY's division-specific Job numbering conventions map to Epicor's JobNum with a prefix convention we define during scoping to prevent collisions in multi-site Epicor deployments.
INNERGY ERP
Bill of Materials (CAD-generated)
Epicor Prophet 21
JobMtl / BOM (Engineering)
1:manyINNERGY BOMs auto-generated from CAD geometry include material specs, quantities, operations routing, and subassembly relationships. CAD-generated BOMs decompose into Epicor Kinetic multi-level BOM structures with PartMtl records for materials and JobOper records for operations. We preserve the source CAD file reference as a URL field on the Epicor Part record for traceability. Multi-level subassemblies create separate Job records or phantom BOM entries depending on whether the subassembly is stocked or consumed directly into the parent job.
INNERGY ERP
Bill of Materials (manual)
Epicor Prophet 21
BOM (Engineering Module)
1:1Manually constructed INNERGY BOMs without CAD origin map to Epicor Engineering BOM records (EBOM) which can then be rolled into a Job. We map Part, PartMtl, and PartOpr records directly and preserve the BOM revision history from INNERGY.
INNERGY ERP
Work Orders
Epicor Prophet 21
JobOper / LaborDtl
1:1INNERGY Work Orders drive shop-floor execution linked to Jobs and BOMs. They map to Epicor Kinetic JobOper records representing individual operations, with actual labor captured via LaborDtl entries. We export Work Order sequencing, assigned operations, and completion status to Epicor's operation scheduling and labor tracking modules.
INNERGY ERP
Change Orders
Epicor Prophet 21
JobRev / ChangeLog (linked table)
lossyINNERGY Change Orders modify active Job scope and track lineage across revisions. We do not collapse change orders into Job records. Instead, we create an Epicor ChangeLog or JobRev linked table that preserves the full change order sequence: original Job number, approval dates, revised quantities, and scope delta. This structure keeps audit fidelity intact and allows project managers and auditors to reconstruct any historical project state from the migration data.
INNERGY ERP
Inventory Items
Epicor Prophet 21
Part + PartWhse
1:1INNERGY tracks material and component inventory with units of measure, reorder points, and warehouse locations. We map inventory balances, average costs, and stock statuses to Epicor Kinetic Part records with PartWhse warehouse assignments. INNERGY units of measure map to Epicor's UOM class structure; any non-standard UOMs are flagged for manual verification before import.
INNERGY ERP
Customers
Epicor Prophet 21
Customer
1:1INNERGY Customer records include contact details, billing and shipping addresses, and associated Jobs list. They map to Epicor Kinetic Customer records with ship-to and bill-to address roles. The customer's Jobs list links via Erp.Tableset.Job tables referenced by CustNum. We preserve the full contact hierarchy including primary, secondary, and site-specific contacts.
INNERGY ERP
Vendors
Epicor Prophet 21
Vendor
1:1INNERGY Vendor records hold supplier information, lead times, and preferred items. We map vendor data to Epicor Kinetic Vendor records preserving associated purchase history where INNERGY exposes it through the API. Preferred item relationships migrate as VendorPart records in Epicor.
INNERGY ERP
Custom Fields (post-implementation)
Epicor Prophet 21
UD fields / Extension tables
lossyINNERGY supports custom fields on key objects, and Feature Release 115 added custom fields for Shipments. Post-implementation custom fields may lack formal schema documentation. We query INNERGY's field definitions via API during discovery, cross-reference against the current export to catch orphaned or mislabeled custom properties, and then map them to Epicor Kinetic User-Defined (UD) fields or custom extension tables in the destination schema.
INNERGY ERP
Chart of Accounts
Epicor Prophet 21
GLAccount / GLBook
1:1INNERGY integrates accounting data through its ERP module with account structures configured per division. We export the full account list and map it to Epicor Kinetic GLAccount records. INNERGY division-specific cost pools map to Epicor Company or Site codes with independent chart-of-account assignments per entity. The customer reconciles any account code changes before we proceed with financial record migration.
INNERGY ERP
Open AP / AR
Epicor Prophet 21
APOpen / AROpen
1:1Outstanding invoices and credit memos represent live financial data that must be reconciled before migration. We extract open AP and AR records from INNERGY via API, map them to Epicor Kinetic APOpen and AROpen records, and preserve the original invoice numbers and aging buckets. The customer closes or reverses any disputed items before we write financial open items to Epicor.
INNERGY ERP
Attachments
Epicor Prophet 21
DocumentManagement / EDMS
1:1INNERGY stores documents and drawings associated with Jobs, Work Orders, and Estimates — including PDFs, images, and CAD files. We export attachments in their native format and link them to the corresponding Epicor records via the document management system. CAD file references are preserved as URL fields pointing to the document store for shop-floor access through Epicor's production tools.
INNERGY ERP
Divisions
Epicor Prophet 21
Company / Site
lossyINNERGY divisions carry their own cost pools, naming conventions, and user access scopes. Epicor Kinetic represents divisions as Company records (for legal-entity separation) or Site records (for operational-unit separation within a single Company). We determine the appropriate Epicor structure during scoping based on whether the customer runs multi-entity financials or single-entity multi-site operations.

Migration approach
Discovery and schema audit
We audit INNERGY's live schema across Estimates, Jobs, BOMs, Work Orders, Change Orders, Inventory, Customers, Vendors, custom fields, division structure, and open AP/AR. We query INNERGY's API for field definitions and compare against the customer's data export to identify undocumented custom fields, orphaned properties, and division-specific naming conventions. We pair this with an Epicor Kinetic edition assessment: Kinetic Manufacturing ($125/user/mo starting) covers most mid-market manufacturing migrations. The discovery output is a written migration scope with record counts per object, BOM complexity rating, division count, and a preliminary mapping matrix.
BOM decomposition design and change order strategy
We design the BOM transformation rules for CAD-generated INNERGY BOMs into Epicor multi-level PartMtl and JobOper structures. We also define the change order preservation strategy: whether INNERGY change orders map to Epicor JobRev records, a linked ChangeLog table, or a combination based on the customer's audit requirements. This design step happens before any test migration and requires the customer's engineering and project management stakeholders to validate the transformation logic against real project examples.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into an Epicor Kinetic Sandbox environment using production-like data volume. The customer's operations lead reconciles record counts across all object types, spot-checks 25-50 random records against INNERGY source data, and validates BOM structures on three to five representative Jobs with CAD-generated and manual BOMs. Change order log fidelity is verified by comparing the full change sequence against INNERGY's source records. Any mapping corrections happen here before production migration begins.
Division and account structure mapping
We map each INNERGY division's chart of accounts to the corresponding Epicor Company or Site structure. For multi-division customers, we configure Epicor's multi-entity or multi-site chart-of-account assignment before financial records (open AP/AR, inventory costs) migrate. The customer's finance team validates that account balances reconcile between INNERGY and the mapped Epicor account structure before open items are written.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Vendors (prerequisite for PO history), Customers, Parts (with BOM structures decomposed), Inventory balances (with cost layers), Quotes and Orders (from INNERGY Estimates), Jobs (with BOM and operations), Change Orders (as linked table or JobRev), Activity history, Attachments, and finally Custom Fields (as UD fields or extension tables). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Change order log is written after all Job records are committed to preserve cross-reference integrity.
Cutover, validation, and integration handoff
We freeze INNERGY writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Epicor as the system of record. We deliver an inventory of INNERGY CAD-to-ERP integration points and workflows that require rebuilding in Epicor Kinetic (production scheduling, CAD-linked BOM regeneration, division-specific automations). We do not rebuild INNERGY workflows as Epicor Kinetic MES automations inside the migration scope; that work is handled by the customer's Epicor implementation partner or internal admin team. We support a one-week post-cutover window where we resolve any reconciliation issues raised by the customer's operations team.
