Magento customer information can be imported into a new Acumatica customer record using the Import Customer setting on the Magento Store screen. The connector can also export eligible Acumatica customers to Magento and record the resulting Magento Customer ID on the customer record.
The Biz-Tech Services Magento Acumatica Connector has separate controls for customer creation, shipping and billing addresses, customer groups, and outbound synchronization. Review those controls together, then check a representative order and customer record before processing a larger batch.
Before You Configure Magento Customer Information
The Biz-Tech Services Acumatica Magento Connector uses the Magento Credentials and Magento Store screens to connect to and configure a store. Magento Credentials includes a Store Code, connection settings and Test Credentials; Magento Store controls order import and Customer Information options.
Decide which existing Acumatica customer records and classes should be used in your implementation. The supplied connector documentation describes how to create new customer records, but does not explain the matching rules for an existing customer, how duplicates are detected, or how the connector resolves competing matches. Confirm those rules with your implementation team before relying on automatic matching.
Magento Customer Mapping at a Glance
Select the intended store in Magento Credentials and test its connection.
Review Import Customer and the default Customer Class in Magento Store.
Choose whether to import shipping and billing addresses using their separate override options.
Review Customer Groups and customer price classes before exporting customers.
Retrieve a representative order and check its address and imported sales order.
For an eligible outbound customer, run Sync Magento Customer and inspect the Magento Customer ID.
Import Customer Information into Acumatica
In the Customer Information section of Magento Store, Import Customer imports customer information from Magento into a new customer record in Acumatica. Customer Class supplies the default class for new customers that do not already exist in Acumatica and are created by the integration.
The documentation does not say which Magento field is used to locate an existing customer, what happens when Import Customer is off, or whether an existing record is updated. Treat the setting as a documented new-customer option, not proof that every Magento account is matched or merged automatically.
As an operational check, compare the customer on a representative imported sales order with the intended account. Investigate unexpected records before repeating the import. A manual review helps identify possible duplicates; it is not a documented connector duplicate-prevention feature.
Keep Shipping and Billing Address Choices Separate
The Biz-Tech Services Magento Acumatica Integration includes Override Ship Address Information and Override Bill Address Information under Customer Information. The first imports the address where the order is to be shipped; the second imports address information for the party paying the order bill.
Review both settings against your order-entry process. A customer may need different shipping and billing addresses, so inspect the resulting order rather than assuming the two addresses should be identical. The Magento Orders screen also has an Addresses tab that displays customer address details.
The manual does not specify a field-by-field mapping, address-matching algorithm, or a rule for choosing an existing ship-to location. Confirm those details for your version before documenting them as automatic behavior.
Align Customer Groups and Price Classes
The Customer Groups tab can synchronize Magento Customer Groups to Acumatica Customer Price Class. The customer export instructions also require the relevant Customer Price Class and customer group to exist in both systems. Check this prerequisite before an outbound sync.
The manual does not describe a group conflict-resolution rule or say that syncing a group merges customer records. If group values or the resulting price class do not look right, review the configured records in each system with the implementation team.
Export an Acumatica Customer to Magento
Customer export can be initiated from the Customers screen through Actions > Sync Magento Customer, or from the Export Magento Customer processing screen. The manual lists these conditions for a customer to sync:
The relevant Customer Price Class and Magento Customer Group must exist in both systems.
The customer must have a contact.
The contact must have First Name, Last Name, Email, and a Magento Customer Password combining letters, numbers, and special characters.
After customer export, the Magento Customer checkbox is checked on the Customers screen and the Magento Customer ID appears under its Magento Customers tab. Review those indicators on the intended customer. They document the export result; the manual does not establish how a pre-existing Magento account is matched or whether duplicate accounts are prevented.
Check the Customer on an Imported Order
The Import Magento Orders screen retrieves orders with Get Orders. The documented grid includes Magento orders in Partially Shipped, on hold, Pending, and Processing statuses. Import processes selected orders and Import All processes the displayed grid.
Open the Magento order through its order-number link to review the Addresses tab. The Magento Orders screen shows Order Number and, if imported, Sales Order Number. Follow the sales order and check its customer and addresses against the source order and the intended account.

Where to Check Your Work
Use these screens and fields to review the Biz-Tech Services Acumatica Magento Integration after a controlled test:
Magento Credentials: Store Code identifies the intended store; Test Credentials checks the connection.
Magento Store > Customer Information: review Import Customer and Customer Class.
Magento Store > Customer Information: review the shipping and billing address override options separately.
Customer Groups: review the Magento groups and corresponding Acumatica customer price classes.
Customers: check the intended customer and contact before outbound synchronization.
Customers > Magento Customers: check Magento Customer ID after export.
Customers: check the Magento Customer checkbox after export.
Import Magento Orders: compare the retrieved order list with the documented eligible statuses.
Magento Orders > Addresses: review the imported address information.
Magento Orders > Sales Order Number: follow the resulting order and check the customer and addresses.
Magento Customer Mapping: Frequently Asked Questions
Does Import Customer update an existing Acumatica customer?
The manual describes importing information into a new customer record, but does not explain how existing records are matched or updated. Confirm that behavior for your installation before relying on it.
Why did a customer not export to Magento?
Check the prerequisites for the Biz-Tech Services Magento Acumatica Integrator: the customer price class and Magento group, a contact, and the contact fields and password described above. The manual does not provide a specific customer-export error message.
How do I confirm an outbound customer sync?
On the Acumatica Customers screen, check the Magento Customer checkbox and look for the Magento Customer ID under the Magento Customers tab. The manual describes these indicators after customer export.
Can shipping and billing addresses differ?
The connector provides separate override options for shipping and billing information. Review the imported addresses on the order and confirm that each matches the intended destination or billing party.
Does the connector automatically prevent duplicate customers?
The supplied manual does not document duplicate detection, matching keys, or merge behavior. Review representative results and agree on a duplicate-handling process with your implementation team.
Why is a Magento order missing from the import list?
Check the store connection and whether the order has one of the statuses documented for the import screen: Partially Shipped, on hold, Pending, or Processing. Review the configured retrieval settings as well.
Work With Biz-Tech Services
A reliable customer workflow depends on correct settings and a review of the records created or linked in each system. Confirm any undocumented matching and duplicate-handling rules before expanding a test to production volumes.
