Overview
axiUm Dental is an ONC-ATCB-certified electronic health record, scheduling, and billing platform used primarily in dental schools and multi-location dental organizations. Its data model centers on patients, appointments, clinical charts, treatment plans, and student-faculty records. Pipedrive is a sales CRM with People, Organizations, Deals, Activities, and Leads — no clinical or treatment-planning constructs exist natively. FlitStack AI bridges this gap by extracting patient demographics, appointment history, and financial records from axiUm via export or API, mapping them to Pipedrive People and Activities, and placing clinical reference data (treatment notes, medical alerts, procedure codes) into custom fields that your team can review after migration. The process uses scoped read-only access to axiUm, a field-level diff before commit, and a 24–48 hour delta window that captures records modified during cutover. Workflows, clinical forms, and student-management logic do not migrate — those are rebuild items in Pipedrive's automation tools.
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 axiUm Dental object lands in Pipedrive, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
axiUm Dental
Patient
Pipedrive
Person
1:1axiUm patient demographics (name, DOB, contact info, address) map directly to Pipedrive Person fields. Patient status (active/inactive) is stored as a custom field since Pipedrive has no native patient-lifecycle concept. Medical alerts from axiUm become custom fields on the Person record.
axiUm Dental
Appointment
Pipedrive
Activity
1:1axiUm appointments map to Pipedrive Activities (type = 'meeting' for clinical appointments, 'call' for recall calls). Provider name, operatory, CDT procedure code, and student-assignment are stored as custom fields on the Activity since Pipedrive's native activity model only captures subject, date/time, and type.
axiUm Dental
Referring Office / Provider
Pipedrive
Organization
1:1If axiUm tracks referring offices as provider records, these map to Pipedrive Organizations. Organization name, phone, and address map directly. Referral relationship details become custom fields on the Organization record.
axiUm Dental
Treatment Plan / Case
Pipedrive
Deal
many:1axiUm treatment plans (with procedure codes and estimated fees) can be merged into Pipedrive Deals — the deal title carries the patient reference, and procedure details, CDT codes, and fee estimates are placed in custom fields on the Deal. Not all treatment plans map cleanly to Pipedrive Deals; some are stored as activity notes instead.
axiUm Dental
Transaction / Ledger Entry
Pipedrive
Custom Field on Deal
1:1axiUm billing ledger entries (payments, insurance adjustments, write-offs) have no native Pipedrive equivalent. These are aggregated and stored as text in a custom deal field (Treatment_Financial_Summary__c) or exported as a separate report for dental billing staff.
axiUm Dental
Clinical Note / Chart Note
Pipedrive
Activity Note
1:1axiUm chart notes and clinical narratives have no equivalent in Pipedrive's data model. These are preserved as Activity notes (type = 'note') with the original clinical text in the note body. They are reference-only in Pipedrive and should not be used for clinical decision-making after migration.
axiUm Dental
Medical Alert / Health History
Pipedrive
Custom Field on Person
1:1axiUm medical alerts (allergies, conditions requiring prophylaxis, bleeding disorders) are placed in Pipedrive custom fields on the Person record. These must be reviewed and potentially rebuilt as structured alerts in Pipedrive's UI by your clinical team post-migration.
axiUm Dental
Student Evaluation / Faculty Record
Pipedrive
Not Migrated
1:1axiUm student-management and faculty-evaluation records are academic-administration data with no Pipedrive equivalent. These do not migrate — they remain in axiUm or are exported as standalone reports for academic program administrators.
axiUm Dental
Recall / Re-Care Entry
Pipedrive
Activity (task)
1:1axiUm recall appointments (hygiene re-care intervals, follow-up visits) map to Pipedrive Tasks with due dates. The recall type and interval are stored as custom fields on the Task. Your team uses Pipedrive's automation to trigger reminder sequences from these task records.
axiUm Dental
Insurance / Financial Responsibility
Pipedrive
Custom Field on Person
1:1axiUm insurance carrier, policy number, and guarantor information map to custom fields on the Pipedrive Person record. These are financial-reference fields, not active billing data — billing workflows remain in your dental practice management system or billing service.

Migration approach
Audit axiUm data and design the Pipedrive schema
FlitStack AI connects to axiUm via export or API (read-only scope) to inventory patient records, appointments, custom fields, and referring-office data. We identify clinical fields that require custom fields in Pipedrive ( CDT codes, medical alerts, procedure types), map provider names to Pipedrive users by email, and design the pipeline and stage structure in Pipedrive that best represents your case-flow or referral pipeline. We deliver a schema setup plan specifying which custom fields to create in Pipedrive and what keys they receive before data lands.
Pre-build Pipedrive custom fields and pipelines
Your admin creates the custom fields identified in the schema plan — provider_name_c, CDT_code_c, medical_alert_c, patient_status_c, treatment_notes_c — before migration runs. Pipedrive's custom field API returns hash keys for each field; these are recorded for the field mapping. Pipedrive's UI enforces that leads and deals share the same custom fields, so a single field creation covers both object types. We provide the exact field names and types for each custom property.
Resolve providers to Pipedrive users and flag unmatched records
axiUm provider names are matched against Pipedrive users by email address. Any provider without a Pipedrive account is flagged in the migration plan with three options: invite them to Pipedrive before migration, assign their records to a fallback Pipedrive user, or retain their name in the custom provider_name_c field without a native assignment. No activity or patient record migrates without an owner resolution decision.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–300 patient records spanning active, inactive, and archived status, plus 200–500 appointments — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff showing every mapped value in both systems. You verify that medical alerts appear in the correct custom field, CDT codes are preserved in treatment_notes_c, and appointment providers resolve to the expected Pipedrive user. No clinical data is committed to Pipedrive until you sign off on the diff.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup and rollback
The full dataset migrates to Pipedrive: People from patient records, Organizations from referring offices, Deals from treatment plans, and Activities from appointments. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any axiUm records modified during cutover. Every operation is logged in the FlitStack audit log. If reconciliation reveals missing or duplicated records, one-click rollback reverts the Pipedrive state to the pre-migration snapshot so your team can investigate without data loss.
