Migrate from Newton ERP Software to Acumatica

Newton customer records map 1:1 to Acumatica Customer records. Primary contact details, billing address, and shipping address transfer directly. Newton customer classes map to Acumatica Customer Classes for credit terms and tax zone assignment. Newton customer IDs are preserved as an external reference field for delta-run de-duplication.

Newton vendor records map to Acumatica Vendor records. Payment terms, Remit-To address, and AP terms transfer directly. Newton vendor classes map to Acumatica Vendor Classes for terms grouping. Unpaid AP balances from Newton become open AP documents in Acumatica keyed to the vendor account.

Newton inventory items map to Acumatica StockItems with ItemClass assignment for posting settings. Newton item types (Finished Goods, Raw Material, Trading) map to Acumatica stock item types. Unit of measure and conversion factors transfer from Newton's UOM configuration. Current stock quantities per warehouse become Acumatica Availability records.

Newton BOMs map to Acumatica BOMs under the Manufacturing Edition. Each BOM version in Newton becomes a separate revision in Acumatica with effective-from dates preserved. Material components map to StockItem lines with scrap factor andBomQty transfer. Routings from Newton's Manufacturing module map to Acumatica Operation steps.

Open Newton sales orders transfer as Acumatica Sales Orders with order type, customer, line items, and scheduled shipment dates preserved. Order status (Open, Completed, Cancelled) maps to Acumatica status values. Lines with fulfilled quantities create partially shipped orders in Acumatica. Completed and cancelled orders transfer as historical records.

Open Newton purchase orders become Acumatica Purchase Orders with vendor, line items, and expected receipt dates preserved. Lines linked to approved purchase requests map as Purchase Order lines. Receipts not yet processed in Newton become open receipt tasks in Acumatica's receiving workflow.

Newton's accounts receivable invoices transfer to Acumatica AR Invoices keyed by customer and invoice number. Terms, due dates, and applied payments from Newton are preserved as invoice details. Open invoices land as unreleased documents pending financial sign-off. Historical paid invoices transfer as released records for audit continuity.

Newton's accounts payable invoices map to Acumatica AP Invoices keyed by vendor and invoice number. Prepaid amounts and applied purchase orders carry over. Open AP invoices land as unreleased until your team confirms vendor balances in Acumatica's AP subledger. This ensures financial accuracy and maintains proper audit trails throughout the migration process.

Newton general ledger entries load into Acumatica as GL Batches. Each Newton journal entry becomes a batch with original entry date, description, and source module preserved. Account codes are mapped using the Newton-to-Acumatica chart-of-accounts mapping table. Trial balance totals are verified against Newton's period-end reports before batch release.

Newton employee records from the HR module transfer to Acumatica Employee records if the HR module is in scope. Fields include EmployeeID, name, department, employment type, and hire date. Active/inactive status maps to Acumatica's EmployeeStatus field. Salary and compensation data requires separate discussion if compensation management is in scope.

Newton production orders for in-process manufacturing map to Acumatica Production Orders. Status values (Planned, In Process, Completed, Closed) transfer directly. Materials issued and labor posted in Newton are preserved as inventory issues against the production order in Acumatica. This preserves manufacturing continuity and ensures all production history is maintained through the migration.

Newton stores custom fields as labeled properties on standard records. We export the property definitions as a field catalog and recreate each one as an Acumatica UDF on the matching screen. Text, Date, Number, and List types map to equivalent Acumatica UDF data types. Dropdown values in Newton require manual recreation in Acumatica's UDF editor.

Newton workflow definitions and approval chains do not transfer. We export the workflow configuration as a reference document describing each rule's trigger, conditions, and assignee hierarchy. Your Acumatica admin rebuilds these using Acumatica's Automation Schedules, Approval Maps, and screen-level workflow configurations.
