Migrate your Visibility ERP data
Manufacturing ERP built for engineer-to-order shops with deep BOM complexity, real-time scheduling, and integrated financials across 550+ deployments.
In its favor
Why people choose Visibility ERP
The signal that keeps Visibility ERP on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Engineer-to-order depth — Visibility ERP natively handles complex multi-level BOMs, multi-plant routings, and job costing that generic ERPs flatten, making it a natural fit for aerospace, fabricated metals, and semiconductor shops.
Integrated manufacturing and financials — unlike bolt-on solutions, Visibility's order management, shop scheduling, inventory, and GL all sit on one platform, eliminating reconciliation drift between production and accounting.
Strong audit trails and data integrity — verified reviews consistently cite zero data loss and reliable audit trails across all modules, critical for regulated manufacturing environments.
Manufacturing-specific BI — the built-in BI Cubes warehouse lets users build and share reports without a separate BI tool, with a short learning curve even for non-technical staff.
Cloud and on-premise flexibility — organizations can deploy Visibility as a fully hosted cloud solution or on-premise, and migrate between those topologies without re-implementing from scratch.
Documentation lags behind feature releases — when new fields, forms, or screens are introduced, the help files are rarely updated, leaving users to deduce intended purpose and downstream impacts on their own.
Interface feels cluttered across multi-window workflows — completing a single task often requires navigating multiple windows, and some forms open noticeably slowly, frustrating power users who expect desktop-app responsiveness.
Excessive steps for routine reversals — undoing receipts, returning items to vendors, or correcting booking errors requires more clicks and confirmations than comparable ERPs, creating friction in high-volume order shops.
Customer portal UX underwhelming — the self-service portal for customers and vendors is consistently described as unintuitive, and organizations often build替代 portals or integrations to avoid it.
Performance degrades on large form sets — as implementations grow in complexity, certain forms take measurably longer to load, and no published performance benchmarks exist to plan capacity.

Pricing tiers
Visibility ERP pricing overview
Visibility ERP does not publish pricing on its website. Costs are quoted per-module and per-user, typically ranging from entry-level core financials to a full-suite enterprise deployment. Given the 4–6 month implementation timeline, total cost of ownership includes significant professional services fees on top of software licensing.

What gets migrated
Visibility ERP object support
Object-by-object support for Visibility ERP migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Bills of Material
Mapping requiredVisibility supports multi-level, phantom, and configured BOMs. During migration, we preserve the full BOM hierarchy by walking the parent-component tree and mapping each level's routing association. Phantom BOMs require us to suppress the phantom entity and roll its components into the parent.
Work Orders
Mapping requiredWork Orders carry job-specific routing steps, labor estimates, material allocations, and status histories. We map open Work Orders by status (Released, In Process, Closed) and carry forward the full step sequence. Historical closed Work Orders can be migrated as reference records with a flag to exclude from live shop-floor systems.
Production Orders
Mapping requiredProduction Orders in Visibility reference the BOM and Routing to generate material and labor requirements. We map the Production Order header, its linked BOM revision, and the operation step sequence. Where destinations lack a separate Production Order object, we merge into Work Orders and preserve production-type as a custom field.
Routings
Mapping requiredRoutings define the sequence of manufacturing operations, work centers, and standard times. We map routing headers, operation steps, and work center assignments. Custom operation-level user fields require explicit field-level mapping during scoping.
Sales Orders
Fully supportedSales Orders in Visibility capture the full quote-to-invoice lifecycle including configured lines, pricing, discounts, and shipment schedules. We migrate open and historical Sales Orders with line-item detail. Order status transitions are preserved as a lifecycle custom field on the destination.
Purchase Orders
Fully supportedOpen Purchase Orders with line items, vendor assignments, scheduled receipts, and unit costs migrate directly. We map the PO header to the destination's PO object and flatten line-level detail including partial receipt quantities and item descriptions.
Inventory Lots and Serial Numbers
Mapping requiredVisibility tracks lot numbers, serial numbers, expiration dates, and bin locations. Lot-controlled items require us to map the lot assignment at the inventory transaction level, not just the item master. We flag items that are lot-tracked in the source but not in the destination before migration runs.
Chart of Accounts
Mapping requiredVisibility uses a hierarchical GL code structure that varies by deployment (segmented vs. flat). We extract the full account tree, map account types, and validate that the destination's segment structure can accommodate the source's account codes. Account-segment mismatches are flagged before import begins.
Open AP/AR
Mapping requiredOpen invoices, credit memos, and payment records carry customer/vendor references, due dates, and aging buckets. We map open AP/AR by aging period and preserve the original invoice numbers as reference fields on the destination. Historical closed records are migrated as read-only archive entries unless the customer specifies otherwise.
Quality Control Records
Mapping requiredQC inspection results, non-conformance records, and corrective actions link to Work Orders and inventory transactions. We migrate QC records as related children of their parent Work Orders, mapping pass/fail status and inspector notes. Custom QC checklist fields require explicit value mapping.
Document Management
Not in this platformVisibility's Document Management module stores files and revisions linked to entities across the system. There is no publicly documented bulk export endpoint for the document repository. We do not migrate binary documents — only the document metadata (name, revision, linked entity, date) is carried forward as a cross-reference index for manual re-upload.
Custom Properties and User-Defined Fields
Mapping requiredVisibility allows user-defined fields across most major objects. We extract the custom field schema during scoping and map each field individually to the destination's equivalent. Custom fields that use dropdown or list values require value-level cross-reference tables to avoid silent data corruption at import time.
Users and Role Assignments
Mapping requiredUser accounts, role profiles, and security permissions migrate with role-to-permission mapping preserved where the destination has an equivalent role model. Role names are mapped to the closest destination equivalent. Users without email addresses in the source cannot be auto-provisioned in cloud destinations and are flagged for manual handling.
