Overview
Moving from TallyPrime to Infor CloudSuite is an architectural migration from a desktop accounting tool for Indian SMEs to a cloud-native ERP for global manufacturers with 1,000+ employees. TallyPrime holds all data in local proprietary files with no REST API, while Infor CloudSuite runs on multi-tenant cloud infrastructure with a structured migration database that requires data in sequential dependency order. We extract TallyPrime's Companies, Ledgers, Vouchers, Inventory Items, Godowns, and Parties via file-level XML and JSON exports, then load them into Infor's migration staging tables, mapping the flat Tally ledger hierarchy to Infor's nested account structure and resolving inter-company voucher splits. TDL-based customizations, custom invoice layouts, workflows, and approval chains do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of these for the customer's admin to rebuild using Infor OS or a certified Infor partner. GSTIN compliance continuity and ITC opening balances are carried forward through an explicit cutover-date strategy.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a TallyPrime 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.
TallyPrime
Company
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Legal Entity / Division
1:1TallyPrime Company records map to Infor CloudSuite Legal Entities or Divisions depending on the destination org structure. Each Company carries a GSTIN, fiscal year configuration, and base currency. We export Company metadata (name, GSTIN, state, TIN, PAN, base currency) and create the corresponding legal entity in Infor with the correct tax registration, fiscal calendar, and currency assignment. Multi-company Tally data files result in multiple Infor Legal Entity records with inter-company elimination rules configured separately.
TallyPrime
Ledger
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Account
lossyTallyPrime Ledgers map to Infor CloudSuite Accounts within a configured chart of accounts. Tally's flat ledger list requires restructuring into Infor's nested account hierarchy (Asset, Liability, Income, Expense, Cost segments). We map the GST classification on each Tally ledger (GST rate, HSN-linked tax component) to the corresponding Infor tax configuration, and preserve opening balances as the Infor opening transaction at the go-live date. Tally's Cost Categories and Profit Centers map to Infor Cost Pools and Cost Objects respectively, with a written note that these are destination-configured and may require admin mapping during scoping.
TallyPrime
Voucher
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Transaction / Journal Entry
1:1TallyPrime Vouchers (Sales, Purchase, Receipt, Payment, Contra, Journal, Debit Note, Credit Note) map to Infor CloudSuite transactional records by voucher type. We sequence voucher export by date, apply a cutoff-date filter at the go-live boundary, and load all vouchers before or after the cutoff into Infor's transactional tables. Voucher-level GSTIN, HSN, and tax rate information is preserved in the Infor transaction line items. Inter-company vouchers in Tally (where one Company references a ledger in another) are split into separate vouchers per legal entity with cross-reference notes in Infor.
TallyPrime
Inventory Item
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Item / BOM
1:1TallyPrime Stock Items with HSN/SAC codes, opening quantity, rate, and value map to Infor CloudSuite Item Master records. Items with Bill of Materials in Tally map to Infor BOM structures with the same component items, quantities, and routing. We preserve the Track as Asset flag on applicable items as a category tag in Infor. Opening stock quantities and values load as Infor's inventory opening balance at the go-live date.
TallyPrime
Godown
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Warehouse
1:manyTallyPrime Godowns represent multi-location inventory within a single Company. We export each Godown-stock mapping and create corresponding Infor CloudSuite Warehouse records, then resolve the item-to-warehouse quantity assignments in Infor's inventory table. If the destination Infor deployment uses a single-warehouse configuration, Godowns are consolidated into one warehouse with location codes preserved as tags. Godown-specific stock valuations carry forward as opening balances per warehouse.
TallyPrime
Parties (Customers and Vendors)
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Business Partner (Customer / Supplier)
1:1TallyPrime Party records with GSTIN, PAN, mailing address, contact details, credit limits, and opening receivables/payables map to Infor CloudSuite Business Partner records. GSTIN validation is preserved as the primary party identifier. Opening balances for outstanding receivables and payables load as Infor AP/AR opening transactions against the respective Business Partner. Tally's Payment Terms and Credit Limit settings map to Infor's payment terms and credit control configuration on the Business Partner.
TallyPrime
Voucher Type
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Transaction Type / Document Type
lossyTallyPrime allows customised Voucher Types with numbered series, print layouts, and approval configurations. We map standard voucher types (Sales, Purchase, Receipt, Payment, Journal) to Infor's transaction type equivalents, and flag any voucher type with custom numbering series or print layouts as a manual-rebuild item for the Infor admin. Custom voucher types that have no direct Infor equivalent are documented with their full configuration for partner-level resolution.
TallyPrime
Fixed Assets
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Fixed Asset Register
1:1TallyPrime tracks Fixed Assets via Stock Items with a Track as Asset flag and separate depreciation books. We export the asset register (description, acquisition date, cost, accumulated depreciation, depreciation method, and book value) and create corresponding Infor Fixed Asset records with the same depreciation schedule. Multiple depreciation books in Tally map to separate depreciation registers in Infor. Asset category mappings preserve the grouping structure from Tally's asset ledgers.
TallyPrime
Units of Measure
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Unit of Measure
1:1TallyPrime UoMs (simple name/alias pairs and compound UoMs like 'dozen boxes') map to Infor CloudSuite Unit of Measure records. Compound UoMs are split into their component base UoM during mapping, with a conversion factor stored in Infor. We export the full UoM list and create the corresponding units in Infor before any item or transaction data loads.
TallyPrime
Currencies
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Currency
1:1TallyPrime multi-currency definitions and exchange rates map to Infor CloudSuite Currency records with rate tables linked by effective date. Historical exchange rates from Tally voucher records are preserved as rate entries in Infor, applied at the voucher date during import. We flag any Tally currency without a direct Infor counterpart for admin-level setup before transactional load.
TallyPrime
GST Compliance Records
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Tax Configuration and Filing History
1:1TallyPrime e-Invoice JSON, GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, and e-Way Bill records are file exports rather than live system data. We carry forward the GST portal filing history reference numbers (ARN, IRN) as notes on the last Tally voucher of each filing period, and document the ITC opening balance as an Infor opening transaction so that input tax credit continuity is preserved without gaps or double-counting at the go-live cutover date.
TallyPrime
Budget
Infor CloudSuite Corporate
Budget
1:1TallyPrime Budgets linked to Ledgers and defining periodic or YTD control values are exported as named budget records. We map these to Infor CloudSuite Budget entries if the destination includes cost accounting; if not, we export the budget data as a structured CSV with ledger name, period, and budgeted amount that the customer can import manually into Infor or use as a reference for manual Infor budget entry.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
TallyPrime gotchas
TallyPrime data lives in proprietary local files, not a database
TDL customizations are version-specific and not portable
GST filing history exists on the GST portal, not in Tally
Multi-company inter-company vouchers require explicit mapping
Corrupted company data is a known migration blocker
Infor CloudSuite Corporate gotchas
Infor OS tier-based usage limits gate API and BaaS capabilities
Custom Fields use inconsistent naming across Infor editions
SQL migration utility requires source database access
Multi-site and multi-currency data require separate period closure sequencing
REST API payload and timeout limits restrict bulk migration throughput
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and extraction feasibility assessment
We receive the TallyPrime backup (.zip) and run Tally's own repair utility to check for file corruption. We audit the data file structure across all Companies in the TallyPrime installation, documenting the count of Ledgers, Vouchers (by type and date range), Stock Items, Godowns, Party records, and any TDL customisations present. We identify the TallyPrime version and confirm whether any TDL-accessible exports are needed beyond the built-in JSON/XML export. This audit produces a written extraction plan with record counts, data quality notes, and a list of any TDL-driven features that require manual rebuild documentation.
Scope definition and Infor CloudSuite edition review
We define the migration scope in terms of which TallyPrime Companies map to which Infor legal entities, whether the account chart uses a standard Infor industry template or a custom structure, and whether multi-location inventory (Godowns) requires one Infor warehouse per Godown or consolidation. We review the target Infor CloudSuite edition (Industrial, Food & Beverage, Automotive, Distribution, or other industry-specific suite) against the customer's product type and compliance requirements. This phase produces a written migration scope document and a data dependency map that defines the import sequence.
Master data extraction and transformation
We extract TallyPrime master data (Companies, Ledgers, Parties, Inventory Items, Godowns, UoMs, Currencies, Voucher Types, Fixed Assets) as XML or JSON via Tally's built-in export functions. Each export is validated against the source Tally data file for record counts and field completeness. We transform the data into Infor CloudSuite migration database import format, restructuring Tally's flat ledger list into Infor's nested account hierarchy and mapping GSTIN party data to Infor Business Partner records with tax registration.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We load the transformed data into an Infor CloudSuite migration database in a non-production environment. We run the Infor import steps in dependency order (Legal Entities, Accounts, Business Partners, Items, Warehouses, then Transactions), reconciling record counts at each step against the source TallyPrime extraction. The customer's Infor administrator spot-checks 25-50 records across Ledgers, Parties, Inventory, and Vouchers against the source TallyPrime data, and signs off the mapping before production migration. Any BOM complexity, inter-company voucher splits, or Godown-to-warehouse mapping corrections are resolved here.
Production migration in dependency order with cutoff-date cutover
We run the production migration in the validated sequence: Legal Entities and Account structure first, then Business Partners with GSTIN validation, then Inventory and Warehouse data, then transactional Vouchers filtered by cutoff date. The cutoff date is agreed during scoping and defines the boundary between TallyPrime (closed and read-only from the cutover moment) and Infor CloudSuite (live). We flag any voucher modified after the cutoff date for a delta migration post-go-live. GSTIN filing history reference numbers and ITC opening balances are loaded as Infor opening transactions at this stage.
Cutover, validation, and TDL/customization rebuild handoff
We freeze TallyPrime writes at the agreed cutover time, run a final delta migration of any records created or modified during the migration window, then mark Infor CloudSuite as the system of record. We validate account totals, trial balance, stock summary, and party GSTIN status against the last TallyPrime reports. We deliver the TDL and customisation inventory document to the customer's Infor administrator or certified Infor partner for the rebuild phase. We support a one-week post-go-live window to resolve any data reconciliation issues. Workflows, automations, custom invoice layouts, and approval chains do not migrate and are outside the migration scope.
