Overview
Affinity Fieldreach is a field-service management platform built for large utility and infrastructure teams — it organizes work orders, asset records, technician schedules, and service history across thousands of mobile devices. HighLevel is an all-in-one CRM and marketing-automation platform that uses Contacts, Companies, Opportunities, and custom objects to model sales and service data. The two platforms share a contact-centric model but diverge significantly on work-order representation: Fieldreach stores work orders as a native service object with line items, priority levels, and skill requirements, while HighLevel models equivalent data as Opportunities with custom fields and custom objects for anything beyond standard pipeline stages. FlitStack AI sequences the migration by first exporting contacts and companies via Fieldreach's REST API (with rate-limit awareness), then building the HighLevel schema — pipeline stages, custom fields, and any custom objects — before committing the full record set. Workflows, automations, and integrations do not migrate and must be rebuilt in HighLevel's workflow builder. A 24–48 hour delta window captures in-flight work orders modified during cutover.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Affinity Fieldreach object lands in HighLevel, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Affinity Fieldreach
Contact
HighLevel
Contact
1:1Affinity Fieldreach contact records migrate as HighLevel contacts with a direct field-level map for all standard properties. Email serves as the primary unique identifier for deduplication during migration. Owner resolution uses email matching against HighLevel users. Fieldreach contacts without an email receive a generated placeholder address flagged for manual review post-migration.
Affinity Fieldreach
Company
HighLevel
Company
1:1Affinity Fieldreach company records migrate as HighLevel companies. Company name, domain, industry, employee count, and annual revenue map directly. Fieldreach company-to-contact associations (one contact can be linked to multiple companies) map to HighLevel's primary-company association; secondary associations are preserved as custom fields for reference post-migration.
Affinity Fieldreach
Work Order
HighLevel
Opportunity
1:1Affinity Fieldreach work orders do not have a native HighLevel equivalent and must be modeled as Opportunities. The work order name becomes the Opportunity name, the total amount maps to the Opportunity value, and the service address maps to a custom address field. Work order status is preserved as a custom pick-list field on the Opportunity, with value mapping to align Fieldreach status labels with HighLevel pipeline stage names.
Affinity Fieldreach
Work Order Line Item
HighLevel
Custom Object
1:1Fieldreach work orders contain line items for parts and labor that do not exist as separate objects in HighLevel's standard Opportunity model. FlitStack AI creates a custom object in HighLevel called Work Order Line Items with fields for item description, quantity, unit price, and total. The custom object is linked to the parent Opportunity via a lookup relationship so the full service cost breakdown is accessible from the Opportunity record.
Affinity Fieldreach
Asset
HighLevel
Custom Object
1:1Affinity Fieldreach assets (equipment, meters, infrastructure components with location and condition data) migrate as a HighLevel custom object named Assets. Asset name, type, location, and condition status map to custom fields on the object. Maintenance history from Fieldreach is preserved as a text area field on the Asset custom object since HighLevel has no native maintenance log structure.
Affinity Fieldreach
Service History
HighLevel
Custom Field / Note
1:1Fieldreach service history records are embedded within the work order and include all status transitions, technician notes, and timestamps. Because HighLevel has no native service history object, FlitStack AI appends a service history summary as a custom text area field on the Opportunity record and attaches individual history entries as HighLevel Notes linked to the Opportunity, preserving the full chronological service record.
Affinity Fieldreach
User / Owner
HighLevel
User
1:1Affinity Fieldreach user and owner records are resolved by email matching against HighLevel users. A pre-flight check runs before migration to identify unmatched owners. Teams either invite those users to HighLevel first or assign their records to a designated fallback owner. No record lands in HighLevel without a valid owner resolved via email match.
Affinity Fieldreach
Note
HighLevel
Note
1:1Affinity Fieldreach notes attached to work orders or contacts migrate as HighLevel notes linked to the corresponding Opportunity or Contact. Original create timestamps are preserved as a custom datetime field on each note since HighLevel's native createdAt timestamp reflects the import date, not the original note creation date.
Affinity Fieldreach
Attachment / File
HighLevel
File
1:1Fieldreach file attachments on work orders and contacts are downloaded and re-uploaded to HighLevel's file storage. Large file attachments (exceeding HighLevel's file size limits) are flagged during the pre-flight audit and documented for manual re-upload post-migration. All file names and original upload timestamps are preserved as metadata in HighLevel.
Affinity Fieldreach
Custom Field Definition
HighLevel
Custom Field
1:1Affinity Fieldreach custom fields on any object are created as custom fields in HighLevel on the corresponding object before migration begins. Fieldreach field types (pick-list, text, number, date) map to their HighLevel equivalents. Pick-list fields require explicit value mapping when the source and destination pick-list values differ. This step ensures the schema is ready before any record data is written.
Affinity Fieldreach
Workflow / Automation
HighLevel
Workflow
1:1Affinity Fieldreach workflows and automations tied to work-order status changes, assignment rules, or scheduling logic do not have a direct HighLevel equivalent. FlitStack AI does not migrate automation logic. We export a structured definition of each Fieldreach workflow (trigger events, conditions, and actions) as a JSON reference document that your HighLevel admin can use to rebuild equivalent automations in HighLevel's Workflows builder.
Affinity Fieldreach
Tag / Label
HighLevel
Tag
1:1Affinity Fieldreach tags and labels applied to contacts, companies, or work orders migrate as HighLevel tags. Tags are preserved exactly as they appear in Fieldreach so segmentation, filtering, and automation triggers in HighLevel can reference the same tag vocabulary post-migration.
Affinity Fieldreach
Integration / Connection
HighLevel
Integration
1:1Affinity Fieldreach integrations with ERP systems, payment processors, or third-party field tools do not migrate. Each integration must be evaluated individually: HighLevel's native integrations cover Stripe, QuickBooks, Google Calendar, and Zapier, among others. We document every active Fieldreach integration and provide a rebuild plan referencing HighLevel's available connectors and API endpoints.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Pre-migration discovery and field-ID audit
FlitStack AI begins every Affinity Fieldreach migration with a structured discovery phase. We connect to your Fieldreach instance via API using a read-only key, enumerate all object types (contacts, companies, work orders, assets, custom objects), and retrieve the full list of custom field IDs with their labels. We also export a sample of 50–100 records to verify field value quality, check for empty required fields, and identify any pick-list values that require explicit value mapping in HighLevel. This phase produces a migration map document that your team reviews and approves before any data is written to HighLevel.
Build HighLevel schema before data migration
HighLevel's schema must be in place before any record data arrives. FlitStack AI creates the Opportunity pipeline stages matching your Fieldreach work-order statuses, creates all custom fields on Contact, Company, and Opportunity objects, and sets up the Work Order Line Items and Asset custom objects with the required field definitions. We also configure the custom pick-list values for priority, job type, asset condition, and any other transformed fields so that imported records pass HighLevel's validation rules on the first write.
Export and cleanse Fieldreach data with batched API pulls
We export contacts, companies, and work orders from Affinity Fieldreach using batched API requests that respect rate limits. Each batch is validated for required-field completeness and de-duplicated by email (contacts) and work-order ID (work orders). We flag records with missing required fields for your team's review rather than writing partial data. The export produces a set of clean CSV files per object type, backed up to cloud storage before any import begins. Historical work orders are exported last; recent work orders (last 90 days) are prioritized first.
Run sample migration and field-level diff
A representative slice of 100–300 records — spanning contacts, companies, work orders, and a few asset records — migrates into your live HighLevel environment first. FlitStack AI generates a field-level diff comparing the source Fieldreach values against the destination HighLevel values for every mapped field. You verify that work-order status values landed in the correct custom pick-list, that technician names appear in the Assigned_Technician__c field, that line items link to the correct parent Opportunity, and that timestamps match the original Fieldreach create dates. No full run commits until you approve the sample diff.
Full cutover with delta-pickup window and rollback
The full record set commits to HighLevel following sample approval. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours runs concurrently, capturing any Fieldreach records created or modified during the cutover period. Your team continues working in Fieldreach throughout the migration window — FlitStack AI requires only read access. An audit log records every operation: records written, records skipped, and any errors encountered. If reconciliation finds discrepancies, one-click rollback reverts the HighLevel instance to its pre-migration state while your team resolves the root cause.
