Overview
APRO CRM organizes real-estate data around a property-centric model: contacts linked to property listings, deal records tied to specific listings, built-in IP telephony logs, and document-generation workflows. Salesforce Sales Cloud uses a conventional CRM object graph — Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, Tasks, Events — where property data has no native equivalent and must be represented as custom fields on standard objects. We migrate every APRO CRM contact, company/owner record, deal, activity log (calls, emails, meetings, notes), and custom field. Built-in APRO automations, document-generation templates, and IP telephony configurations do not migrate and must be rebuilt in Salesforce — we export those definitions as JSON so your admin has a rebuild reference. Migration runs via APRO CRM's read API and Salesforce Bulk API 2.0, sequenced so foreign keys resolve correctly: Accounts first, then Contacts/Leads, then Opportunities with their OpportunityContactRoles. A 24–48 hour delta-pickup window captures any records modified during the cutover window before the final audit.
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 APRO CRM object lands in Salesforce Sales Cloud, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
APRO CRM
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact
1:1APRO CRM contacts map 1:1 to Salesforce Contacts. Each contact must resolve to an AccountId — contacts without a primary APRO company association land on a default 'Unassigned Account' record, or your admin can specify a default Account to populate before migration runs.
APRO CRM
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead
1:manyAPRO contacts who are active buyers or tenants but not yet under contract route to Salesforce Lead. Your team specifies the APRO contact status values that should split to Lead vs. Contact. Unconverted APRO contacts with a pipeline deal become Opportunities with a Contact Role rather than a Lead.
APRO CRM
Company / Owner
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1APRO CRM company records (which include brokerages, property-management firms, and landlord entities) map to Salesforce Accounts. APRO owner records — individual agents or brokers — map to Salesforce User records for owner resolution, not Accounts. Multi-level APRO company hierarchies (parent/branch) map to Salesforce ParentId on Account.
APRO CRM
Listing / Property
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Object: Property__c
1:1APRO CRM listings have no native Salesforce equivalent. We create a Property__c custom object with fields for address, listing status, price, property type, and listing agent. The listing's primary contact links via ContactId lookup. Your admin pre-creates the object per FlitStack's schema plan, or we provision it via the Metadata API.
APRO CRM
Deal
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
1:1APRO CRM deals (offers, closings, lease agreements) map to Salesforce Opportunities. The deal's associated listing becomes Property__c lookup on the Opportunity. APRO deal stage names map to Salesforce StageName values — each APRO pipeline generates a Salesforce Sales Process keyed by RecordTypeId.
APRO CRM
Pipeline
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Sales Process + Record Type
1:1APRO CRM pipelines (residential, commercial, rental) become Salesforce Sales Processes tied to Record Types. Each APRO pipeline requires a Salesforce RecordType on Opportunity so stage pick-list values are correctly scoped. Your admin creates record types in Setup before the migration validates field mapping.
APRO CRM
Pipeline Stage
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity StageName
1:1Stage values are mapped value-by-value per Salesforce record type. Stage probability, forecast category, and stage-entry timestamps are preserved as custom fields (Stage_Entered_Date__c) on the Opportunity. APRO stage-entered dates migrate as Stage_History__c JSON or individual datetime fields per your reporting preference.
APRO CRM
IP Telephony Log (Call)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task
1:1APRO CRM call logs (duration, disposition, call direction, agent ID) migrate as Salesforce Tasks with Type='Call'. Original call start time maps to ActivityDate or Task.WhatId for association to the Contact or Opportunity. Call disposition maps to a custom Call_Disposition__c field on Task since Salesforce standard Task has no disposition field.
APRO CRM
Email Activity
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task
1:1APRO CRM email logs migrate as Salesforce Tasks with Type='Email'. Subject, body preview, and timestamp are mapped to Task.Subject, Description, and ActivityDate respectively. Full email body is stored in Task.Description. Thread ID is preserved in Email_Message_ID__c for reference. Attachments associated with the email are downloaded and re-uploaded as Salesforce Files linked to the Task record.
APRO CRM
Meeting / Showing
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Event
1:1APRO property showings and meetings migrate as Salesforce Events with original start/end times, location, and who ID preserved. The showing's related listing (Property__c) is linked via WhatId on the Event. Attendees map to EventWhoIds referencing the relevant Contact records. Reminders and recurrence patterns from APRO are also transferred to ensure calendar consistency in Salesforce.
APRO CRM
Note / Comment
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Note
1:1APRO CRM notes and listing comments migrate as Salesforce Notes (the enhanced Notes object, not the legacy Note). Rich-text formatting is preserved where APRO exports it as HTML. ParentId links to the associated Contact, Opportunity, or Property__c record. Any file attachments included with the notes are migrated as Salesforce Files and linked to the parent record.
APRO CRM
Document Template
Salesforce Sales Cloud
No Equivalent
1:1APRO document templates (listing presentations, offer letters, closing documents) are a platform-specific feature with no Salesforce native equivalent. We export template definitions as JSON — field placeholders, conditional logic, and formatting rules — so your admin can rebuild them in Conga Composer, Salesforce Documents, or DocuSign CLM.
APRO CRM
Automatch / Listing Alert
Salesforce Sales Cloud
No Equivalent
1:1APRO CRM's automatching algorithm — which alerts buyers when listings match their criteria — has no Salesforce equivalent. This automation must be rebuilt using Salesforce Flow with criteria-based email alerts or Salesforce Data Cloud actions. We export the automatch rules as a specification document.
APRO CRM
Attachment / File
Salesforce Sales Cloud
ContentDocument / Salesforce Files
1:1APRO CRM attachments (listing photos, contracts, disclosures) are downloaded and re-uploaded as Salesforce Files attached to the relevant Property__c, Contact, or Opportunity record. File size limits apply — Salesforce Files default to 25MB per file. Original file names and content versions are preserved during the transfer to maintain document integrity and audit trails.

Migration approach
Audit APRO CRM data model and export schema
We connect to APRO CRM via read API and extract the full object schema: all standard and custom fields, pick-list values for listing status and deal stage, pipeline definitions, and owner records. We also export document template definitions and automatch rule configurations as JSON for your rebuild reference. This audit identifies fields with no Salesforce equivalent and flags custom junction object requirements before we write a single record.
Create Salesforce schema: custom objects, fields, and record types
Before data moves, your Salesforce admin (or our team) creates the Property__c custom object, Call_Disposition__c and Call_Direction__c fields on Task, and one Salesforce Record Type per APRO pipeline. We deliver a schema setup plan listing every custom field to create, the record types to add on Opportunity, and the page layout assignments per profile. The Salesforce side must be schema-ready before we run field validation.
Resolve owners by email and sequence the migration
We match APRO CRM owner emails against existing Salesforce User emails. Unmatched owners are flagged and reported — your team provisions Salesforce user accounts or assigns them to a fallback owner. Migration runs in dependency order: Accounts first (for AccountId resolution), then Contacts and Leads split by APRO contact type, then Property__c records, then Opportunities with OpportunityContactRoles. This sequence ensures foreign keys resolve correctly at import time.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, companies, listings, deals, and activity logs — migrates into your Salesforce sandbox first. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values to destination field values, verifying listing status value-mapping, pipeline-to-record-type assignment, owner resolution, and call disposition preservation. You verify the diff before we commit to a full run. This sandbox test also validates that custom pick-list values map correctly and that junction object relationships are established as expected.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup and rollback
Full migration runs via Salesforce Bulk API 2.0, loading records in batches. A 24–48 hour delta-pickup window captures any APRO CRM records created or modified during the cutover period. Our audit log records every insert, update, and skip. If reconciliation identifies mismatched record counts or missing relationships, one-click rollback reverts the Salesforce org to its pre-migration state so you can remap and retry without data corruption.
