Overview
Moving from Streamleader to Infor CloudSuite Industrial is a structural upgrade that requires reformatting source data for Infor's SQL Server-based Migration Utility. Streamleader publishes no public API documentation and uses a sales-led engagement model, so our first task is always direct API exploration during discovery to confirm which ERP objects are accessible and which fields are available at the customer's contracted tier. Infor CloudSuite Industrial uses a separate Customer, Vendor, Supplier, and Prospect schema versus Streamleader's simpler entity model, which requires a 1:N entity split during mapping. We migrate master data (Customers, Vendors, Items, Chart of Accounts), open AP/AR records with line-item detail, and historical transactions in date-chunked batches, but we do not migrate document blobs, workflows, automations, or reporting definitions as code. We deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's Infor administrator to rebuild post-migration.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Streamleader object lands in Infor CloudSuite Corporate, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Streamleader
Customer
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Customer + Vendor (N:1 split)
many:1Streamleader uses a unified entity model where Customers and Vendors may share a single object or reference. Infor CloudSuite Industrial maintains separate Customer and Vendor objects with distinct schemas, address books, and payment terms. We extract all Streamleader entities with an entity_type indicator, split them into Customer and Vendor records for Infor CloudSuite, and validate that unique identifiers are preserved on both sides. Where Streamleader stores a contact as both a customer-contact and a vendor-contact, we create separate address records on the appropriate Infor entity.
Streamleader
Vendor
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Vendor
1:1Streamleader Vendor records map directly to Infor CloudSuite VendorMaster. We preserve vendor name, payment terms, tax ID, bank details, and address. Infor CloudSuite requires a vendor code (VendCode) that we generate from the Streamleader account code with a VND prefix if the source does not already carry a vendor code. Vendor-specific metadata such as 1099 eligibility and payment hold flags migrate as configuration fields.
Streamleader
Item / Product
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Item Master (ItemCode, ItemDescription, ProductCode)
1:1Streamleader Items map to Infor CloudSuite ItemMaster with SKU preserved as ProductCode. Unit of Measure codes, cost, and selling price migrate as standard ItemMaster fields. Streamleader custom item attributes (color, size, brand, etc.) that do not map to Infor's standard ItemMaster columns are stored in the ExtUserText and ExtUserDecimal columns or in a custom ItemXref table we create during schema design. UOM conversions require a UnitOfMeasureMapping table in Infor CloudSuite before Item import proceeds.
Streamleader
Chart of Accounts
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Account Master (Acct, Description, Type, Sub, Control)
lossyStreamleader Chart of Accounts structures migrate to Infor CloudSuite AccountMaster with account code, description, type (Asset, Liability, Equity, Revenue, Expense), and sub-account hierarchy preserved. Infor CloudSuite requires a COA to be initialized before AP/AR records can reference account codes, so this migration runs first. Streamleader custom segment dimensions (Cost Centre, Department) map to Infor CloudSuite sub-account structures. We validate account code uniqueness and flag any orphaned references before loading.
Streamleader
Open AP Records
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
AP Invoice / Voucher (APTran + apvitem)
1:1Open Accounts Payable records from Streamleader map to Infor CloudSuite APTran (transaction lines) and apvitem (header). We preserve vendor reference, invoice number, invoice date, due date, gross amount, discount taken, and tax amount. Partial payment history (payments already applied) migrates as Payment records linked to the APTran, with outstanding balance recalculated against the migrated payment history. Unpaid vouchers that reference a Chart of Account code not yet migrated are held in a reconciliation queue until AccountMaster loads complete.
Streamleader
Open AR Records
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
AR Invoice / Invoice (ARTran + arsdist)
1:1Open Accounts Receivable records from Streamleader map to Infor CloudSuite ARTran (transaction lines) and arsdist (header). We preserve customer reference, invoice number, invoice date, due date, gross amount, credit memos, and outstanding balance. Credit allocations and partially applied payments migrate with the invoice record. Infor CloudSuite requires a customer record to exist before AR invoices can be posted, so Customer migration must complete before AR import begins.
Streamleader
Historical Transactions
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
General Ledger Transactions (GlTrans + gltransdtl)
1:1Streamleader historical transaction history migrates to Infor CloudSuite GlTrans and gltransdtl tables in date-chunked batches of 90-day windows. Each transaction includes the journal entry number, posting date, account code, debit/credit amount, and source reference. We validate that every account code referenced in historical transactions exists in the migrated Chart of Accounts. Transaction archives beyond 24 months may be flagged as optional scope based on the customer's reporting and audit requirements, as Infor CloudSuite implementations sometimes archive older history post-migration.
Streamleader
User / Staff
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
User (Infor OS User or Employee)
1:1Streamleader User accounts map to Infor CloudSuite OS User records or Employee records depending on whether the destination uses Infor Security Manager or the Infor HCM module for identity management. We export user name, email, role, and status. Streamleader role names are mapped to Infor CloudSuite role equivalents during configuration. Users without an email match in the destination are held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's Infor administrator to provision before production migration proceeds.
Streamleader
Contact
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Address Book (AddrBook + Address)
1:1Streamleader contact records map to Infor CloudSuite AddressBook entries linked to the corresponding Customer or Vendor entity. Each contact includes name, email, phone, role, and primary address. Infor CloudSuite supports multiple address book entries per entity, which mirrors Streamleader's contact hierarchy. We preserve the primary contact flag and contact type.
Streamleader
Document / Attachment
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Infor Document Management (IDM)
lossyStreamleader does not publish whether binary document attachments (invoices, receipts, contracts) are accessible via API. During the technical audit phase, we attempt to export document blobs via Streamleader's undocumented API. If accessible, we stage them for Infor Document Management (IDM) or store them as file references in the Infor CloudSuite FileStorage path. If inaccessible, we document the document locations for manual file transfer and note the gap in the migration scope. IDM configuration is not included in standard migration scope.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and API exploration
We begin by confirming the customer's Streamleader account access and performing direct API exploration to map available endpoints, field names, pagination limits, and data types. We audit the current data volumes (Customers, Vendors, Items, Chart of Accounts, open AP/AR records, historical transactions, users) and assess which objects are programmatically accessible versus requiring manual export. We also identify the Infor CloudSuite edition, environment type (Production or Sandbox), and confirm the SQL Server version available for the staging database. The discovery output is a written scope document with confirmed object accessibility, estimated record counts per object, and any manual export requirements.
Data model design and entity split mapping
We design the Infor CloudSuite target schema with particular attention to the N:1 entity split required to move Streamleader's unified customer/vendor model into separate Customer and Vendor objects. We create the SQL Server staging database schema with source tables matching Streamleader's export format and target tables matching Infor CloudSuite's Migration Utility import requirements. We define the entity-type split logic, account code generation rules, UOM conversion mappings, and the sequence of SQL INSERT operations required to satisfy Infor CloudSuite's table dependencies (COA before AP/AR, Customers before AR invoices).
SQL Server staging layer build and ETL script development
We build the SQL Server staging database and develop the ETL scripts that transform Streamleader's export format into SQL Server staging tables. This step is the critical bridge between Streamleader's undocumented API output and Infor CloudSuite's SQL Server Migration Utility requirement. We test ETL transformations against a sample of Streamleader records, validate data types and lengths against Infor CloudSuite column definitions, and document any data that cannot be transformed and must be flagged as manual-entry scope.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into an Infor CloudSuite Sandbox environment using production-like data volumes. We validate the SQL Server staging layer, run the Infor Migration Utility import sequences in dependency order (COA first, then Customers/Vendors, then Items, then AP/AR, then transactions), and review the Data Assessment Report and transfer logs for each sequence. The customer's Infor administrator and finance team reconcile record counts, spot-check 20-30 records against the Streamleader source, and sign off the mapping and staging schema before production migration begins.
Production migration in dependency order
We freeze Streamleader writes during the cutover window, export a final delta of any records modified during testing, and load the full dataset into the production SQL Server staging database. We run the Infor Migration Utility in its documented sequence: preliminary data (unit of measure codes, tax codes, Chart of Accounts), master data (Customers, Vendors, Items), then transactional data (open AP/AR, historical transactions). We reconcile row counts for each sequence against source totals, resolve failures flagged in the assessment report, and apply post-import fixes directly in Infor CloudSuite forms where the Migration Utility allows manual correction.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We complete the final reconciliation across all objects, confirm no orphaned references (invoices referencing unmigrated customers, transactions referencing unmigrated accounts), and enable Infor CloudSuite as the live system of record. We deliver a written inventory of any Streamleader automations, workflows, or reporting definitions identified during discovery, with a recommended equivalent in Infor CloudSuite's process templates or Infor OS workflow engine. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised by the customer's team. We do not rebuild Streamleader automations as Infor OS workflows inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement or an internal Infor administrator task.
