Overview

What this migration involves

Solution ERP is a mid-market ERP platform serving 25,000+ users across finance, distribution, and manufacturing in the Middle East market. It uses a chart-of-accounts model with multi-level customer and vendor hierarchies, a separate workflow engine for automations, and stores inventory with class and costing attributes. Acumatica is a cloud-native ERP with multi-entity support, CTV-based (consumption-based) pricing, and a configuration-first model where workflows, alerts, and business events are rebuilt through Acumatica screens and the customization framework — not migrated. We map Solution ERP Customers to Acumatica Customers, Vendors to Vendors, Stock Items to Inventory Items, open Sales Orders to Acumatica Sales Orders, and open Purchase Orders to Purchase Orders. All GL account codes translate to Acumatica Account Codes, with subsidiary and location structures remapped per your Acumatica tenant. For data movement, we use Acumatica Data Entry screens for small record sets under 1,000 lines, the Import by Configuration tool (BC301000) for batches up to 100,000 records, and the REST API for larger volumes. Solution ERP customization projects (customized fields, user-defined tables, workflow rules) are exported as reference documents and rebuilt in Acumatica's customization project editor. Reports, integrations, and third-party connections do not migrate — those require separate rebuild scopes.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

Solution ERP logo

Solution ERP

What's pushing teams away

  • Processing speed degrades under multi-user load with large datasets, causing frustration during month-end close and high-transaction periods.
  • Information overload from dense dashboards overwhelms users who need simpler, role-specific views for daily operations.
  • Support responsiveness varies by region and tier, with some users reporting slower resolution times outside core business hours.
  • Limited third-party integrations compared to established global ERP platforms, creating friction for companies with diverse software ecosystems.
  • Customisation depth is narrower than tier-1 systems, restricting ability to model highly specialised industry workflows.

Choosing

Acumatica logo

Acumatica

What's pulling them in

  • Unlimited user licensing lets companies add staff without per-seat billing shocks, making Acumatica cost-predictable at scale.
  • Flexibility and scalability earn consistent praise — users value a platform that adapts to vertical workflows without forcing a redesign.
  • Real-time visibility across financials, inventory, and projects gives mid-market businesses a consolidated operational view previously available only in enterprise-tier ERPs.
  • Cloud-native architecture with automatic updates removes infrastructure management burden from in-house IT teams.
  • Modular licensing lets companies start with one or two suites (Financials, Distribution) and expand into Manufacturing or CRM incrementally.

Object mapping

How Solution ERP objects map to Acumatica

Each row shows how a Solution ERP object lands in Acumatica, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.

Solution ERP

Chart of Accounts

maps to

Acumatica

Chart of Accounts (GL Account)

1:1
Mapping required

Solution ERP account codes map to Acumatica Account Code (AcctCD) and optional Sub segment. In multi-entity Acumatica setups, each Solution ERP account must be assigned to the correct Subsidiary. Account types (Asset, Liability, Equity, Revenue, Expense) map to Acumatica Account Type. If Solution ERP uses cost-centers as a second segment, these map to Acumatica Sub codes — your Acumatica admin pre-creates the Sub segment values before import.

Solution ERP

Customer

maps to

Acumatica

Customer

1:1
Fully supported

Solution ERP Customers map 1:1 to Acumatica Customers (AR303000). Customer name maps to CustomerName, account code to AcctCD, class to CustomerClass, and status to Status. Solution ERP's multi-level customer hierarchy collapses into a flat parent record with separate Location records for child entities in Acumatica. Primary contact information maps to the Contact section; additional contact persons map to the Contacts tab.

Solution ERP

Vendor

maps to

Acumatica

Vendor

1:1
Fully supported

Solution ERP Vendors map to Acumatica Vendors (AP303000) with name to VendorName, account code to AcctCD, class to VendorClass, and status to Status. Payment terms from Solution ERP map to Acumatica Payment Terms via value mapping — terms like 'Net 30' map to the corresponding Acumatica TermsID. Multi-level vendor hierarchies collapse to a flat structure with separate Location records.

Solution ERP

Stock Item

maps to

Acumatica

Inventory Item (Stock Item)

1:1
Fully supported

Solution ERP Stock Items map to Acumatica Inventory Items (IN202500). Item ID maps to InventoryID, description to Description, class to Inventory Class, item type to Item Type (Stock/Non-Stock/Service), and base unit to Base Unit. Valuation method (Average/FIFO/Standard) from Solution ERP maps to Valuation Method in Acumatica. Multiple stocking locations in Solution ERP map to separate Warehouse records in Acumatica's Warehouse Management.

Solution ERP

Sales Order

maps to

Acumatica

Sales Order (SO301000)

1:1
Fully supported

Open Solution ERP Sales Orders map to Acumatica Sales Orders. Document number from Solution ERP maps to Order Nbr, customer reference to Customer Order Nbr, order date to Date, and requested ship date to Required Date. Line items (stock items) map to Detail lines with the Acumatica InventoryID lookup. Solution ERP order statuses (Open, Pending, Confirmed) map to Acumatica statuses via value mapping. Completed and invoiced orders in Solution ERP are not migrated — Acumatica begins with open transactions only.

Solution ERP

Purchase Order

maps to

Acumatica

Purchase Order (PO301000)

1:1
Fully supported

Open Solution ERP Purchase Orders map to Acumatica Purchase Orders. Vendor reference maps to Vendor Ref, document date to Date, and expected receipt date to Expected Receipt Date. Line items map to POLine with the Acumatica InventoryID. Completed receipts and invoices in Solution ERP are not migrated. Acumatica's multi-step PO approval workflow is not enabled by default — your Acumatica admin configures approval chains separately.

Solution ERP

Invoice / AR Invoice

maps to

Acumatica

AR Invoice (AR301000)

1:1
Fully supported

Open Solution ERP AR Invoices map to Acumatica AR Invoices. Invoice number maps to Reference Nbr, customer to CustomerID, invoice date to Date, due date to Due Date, and amount to Amount. Line items map to detail lines with description and amount. Solution ERP's payment terms on each invoice override customer-level defaults via the TermsID field.

Solution ERP

Custom Fields (Customer, Vendor, Stock Item)

maps to

Acumatica

Custom Fields on Customer / Vendor / InventoryItem

1:1
Fully supported

Solution ERP's customization projects add fields to standard entities — these have no automatic equivalent in Acumatica. We export custom field definitions from Solution ERP and recreate them in Acumatica's Customization Project Editor before data import. Each custom field in Solution ERP becomes a separate USR-defined field on the corresponding Acumatica screen. Custom fields must be deployed and published before their values can be imported.

Solution ERP

Workflow / Automation Rules

maps to

Acumatica

Acumatica Business Events / Screen Workflows

1:1
Fully supported

Solution ERP's separate workflow engine (automated approval chains, escalation rules, email alerts, conditional field updates) has no direct equivalent in Acumatica. These must be rebuilt in Acumatica's configuration environment: Business Events, notification templates, and screen-level workflows. We export Solution ERP workflow definitions as a rebuild reference document and provide a mapping plan identifying each workflow and its nearest Acumatica counterpart.

Solution ERP

Reports / Dashboards

maps to

Acumatica

Report Designer / Generic Inquiry

1:1
Fully supported

Solution ERP's native reports and dashboard configurations do not migrate. The underlying data migrates to Acumatica, but reports must be rebuilt using Acumatica's Report Designer or Generic Inquiry tool. We flag which Solution ERP reports are used most frequently so your Acumatica admin can prioritize rebuild. Saved searches from Solution ERP are exported as reference lists.

Solution ERP

User / Owner

maps to

Acumatica

Employee / User

1:1
Fully supported

Solution ERP users who have been assigned as document owners map to Acumatica Employees and Users. OwnerID on each record resolves by email match against Acumatica Users. Users with read-only access in Solution ERP are not automatically provisioned in Acumatica — your Acumatica admin creates their Employee record and assigns appropriate Roles before migration.

Solution ERP

Attachments / Documents

maps to

Acumatica

Files / Attachments on records

1:1
Fully supported

File attachments stored against Solution ERP customers, vendors, or orders migrate as Acumatica Files. Files are re-uploaded to the corresponding Acumatica record's attachments tab. Solution ERP's file size limits and document storage configuration map to Acumatica's file attachment settings. Large document archives may require Acumatica's external storage configuration.

Solution ERP

GL Batch / Journal Entry (historical)

maps to

Acumatica

Journal Transaction (GL301000)

1:1
Fully supported

Historical GL batches and journal entries in Solution ERP are generally not migrated unless specifically required for audit continuity. Migrating historical journal entries is high-risk because Solution ERP's account structure may differ significantly from Acumatica's mapped chart of accounts. If historical continuity is required, a targeted analysis of account code mapping is performed before committing any GL import.

Solution ERP

Payment Terms

maps to

Acumatica

Payment Terms (CA204000)

1:1
Fully supported

Solution ERP payment terms (Net 30, Net 60, 2/10 Net 30, etc.) map to Acumatica Payment Terms records. Each Solution ERP term value requires a value-mapping entry to the corresponding TermsID in Acumatica. If Solution ERP uses non-standard term descriptions, the Acumatica admin creates matching Terms records before migration so that the value mapping resolves correctly.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Chart of accounts translation creates GL mapping work before any data can import

    Solution ERP account codes do not map directly to Acumatica's Account Code field — they require a value-by-value translation table, and in multi-entity Acumatica deployments, each account must be assigned to the correct Subsidiary. If Solution ERP uses a cost-center as a second account segment (e.g., 4000-SALES-DEPT), Acumatica requires a separate Sub segment configured in the chart of accounts before the mapping can resolve. This work must complete before any GL-linked entity (customer, vendor, inventory) can be imported, because Acumatica validates the APAccountID and ARAccountID references on those records against the GL chart. We deliver the account mapping table as the first artifact of the migration plan.

  • Custom fields created in Solution ERP customization projects must be deployed in Acumatica before data import

    Solution ERP's customization projects add fields to standard entities (Customers, Vendors, Stock Items) using the solution's customization framework. These fields are not part of the standard schema. Acumatica requires its custom fields to be created in the Customization Project Editor (SM205500), published as a package, and applied to the target tenant before any data that references those fields can be imported. If a custom field in Solution ERP stores a value that is used in value-mapping rules (e.g., a custom customer priority field driving order approval routing), Acumatica's corresponding custom field must exist and be deployed before the import job runs, otherwise the import rejects the records. We handle the sequencing of custom-field deployment before each import batch.

  • Solution ERP workflow and alert sequences are not portable — they must be rebuilt

    Solution ERP has a separate workflow engine that runs automated approval chains, escalation rules, and email alerts independently of the transaction data. Acumatica has no equivalent: business events, notification templates, and screen-level workflows are all built in the application UI using different paradigms. Approval limits, escalation conditions, and conditional field updates in Solution ERP have no automatic translation to Acumatica's Business Event framework. We export your Solution ERP workflow definitions as a structured reference document, but rebuilding them in Acumatica is a separate configuration engagement. Automations that govern your current approval and notification processes should be documented during migration planning so the rebuild effort is scoped correctly.

  • Multi-level customer and vendor hierarchies collapse to flat Location records

    Solution ERP supports nested parent-child structures for both customers and vendors, where a parent entity can have multiple child entities with their own addresses, contacts, and credit terms. Acumatica stores these as a flat parent record with separate Location records on the Locations tab. The mapping is many-to-one: multiple Solution ERP child entities under one parent map to separate Location records in Acumatica, not to separate Customer records. Your team must decide which hierarchy levels to preserve as Locations versus collapsing to contact-only records, and the mapping plan must reflect that decision before import.

  • Open order migration requires careful status filtering to avoid importing closed or cancelled documents

    Solution ERP's order statuses (Open, Pending, Confirmed, Completed, Cancelled) do not map one-to-one with Acumatica order statuses. Completed orders in Solution ERP that have already been invoiced should not migrate as open Sales Orders in Acumatica — they would create duplicate revenue recognition entries. We filter the export to open orders only (status = Open or Pending) and map those to Acumatica Open status. Any order that was partially shipped or partially invoiced in Solution ERP requires a manual reconciliation note because Acumatica's shipment-invoice linkage model may differ from Solution ERP's fulfillment tracking.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Solution ERP to Acumatica data migration

  1. Analyze Solution ERP schema and Acumatica tenant configuration

    We extract Solution ERP's chart of accounts, entity definitions, custom field list, and workflow documentation via API and file export. Simultaneously, we review the target Acumatica tenant — checking the chart of accounts structure, number sequence configurations, payment terms, currency settings, and subsidiary setup. We build the account mapping table first because all downstream imports (Customers, Vendors, Inventory) depend on valid GL account references in Acumatica.

  2. Create Acumatica custom fields and deploy customization packages

    Solution ERP custom fields on Customers, Vendors, and Inventory Items are documented from the extraction and recreated in Acumatica's Customization Project Editor. Each custom field is added to the appropriate screen (AR303000, AP303000, IN202500) and published as a customization package before any entity import begins. This step gates all subsequent imports — records cannot import values for fields that do not yet exist in Acumatica's schema.

  3. Resolve users and set owner mapping

    Solution ERP users who own records are matched by email address against Acumatica Users. Where an email match is found, the Solution ERP OwnerID maps directly to the Acumatica OwnerID. Unmatched owners are flagged in a pre-migration report — your Acumatica admin either creates the corresponding Employee/User record or assigns those records to a designated fallback owner before the migration run commits any data.

  4. Run a sample migration with field-level diff

    We run a sample migration against a representative slice of Solution ERP data — typically 200–500 records across Customers, Vendors, Inventory, and open orders. The field-level diff compares source values to destination field values after transformation, flagging any truncated fields, unmapped pick-list values, or broken lookups. The Acumatica admin reviews the diff and approves the mapping plan before the full migration run is scheduled.

  5. Execute full migration with delta-pickup window

    The full migration loads all approved entities into Acumatica using the Import by Configuration tool (BC301000) for batches under 100,000 records or the REST API for larger volumes. A delta-pickup window runs concurrently for 24–48 hours after the initial load, capturing any records created or modified in Solution ERP during the cutover. FlitStack generates a reconciliation report comparing record counts and key field values between the two systems. Audit logging captures every import operation, and one-click rollback is available if the reconciliation report identifies critical discrepancies.

Most Solution ERP to Acumatica migrations complete in 3–6 months for organizations with fewer than 50,000 transactional records. Scenarios involving multi-entity Acumatica configurations, more than 500 custom fields, or extensive chart-of-accounts remapping extend to 6–12 months. The chart of accounts translation step and Acumatica custom-field deployment are the longest planning activities before any data moves. Early phases include schema analysis, account mapping table creation, and sample data validation to ensure downstream imports will resolve GL references without errors.
