Overview
BoldTrail (formerly kvCORE) structures its CRM around real-estate-specific objects — Contacts, Companies, Deals, Properties, and Transactions — with Smart Campaigns and drip sequences handling automation. Dynamics 365 Sales uses a conventional Account / Contact / Opportunity model built on Dataverse, with no native property-listing or real-estate-transaction object. The migration therefore requires Dataverse custom tables for BoldTrail's Property and Transaction records, direct field mapping for all standard contact and deal fields, and owner resolution by email against Dynamics 365 users. FlitStack AI connects to BoldTrail's REST API with rate-limit-aware batch extraction and writes into Dynamics 365 via the Dataverse Web API. BoldTrail workflows, Smart Campaigns, and drip sequences do not migrate — FlitStack exports those definitions as rebuild references for Power Automate. The migration preserves original create dates, stage timestamps, and activity owners; a 24–48 hour delta window captures any BoldTrail records modified during the cutover before final reconciliation. During the delta window, FlitStack leverages Dataverse Change Tracking to identify newly created or updated records, applying the same email‑based owner resolution to keep ownership consistent. A field‑level diff report is generated after the initial load, allowing your team to verify mapping accuracy before the final cut‑over and to address any custom‑field gaps before go‑live.
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 BoldTrail object lands in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales , including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
BoldTrail
Contact
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Contact / Lead
1:manyBoldTrail contacts map directly to Dynamics 365 Contacts for active clients and leads already in a deal pipeline. Unassigned or early-stage contacts can land as Dynamics Leads depending on your sales process definition — FlitStack applies a configurable routing rule at migration time.
BoldTrail
Company
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Account
1:1BoldTrail Company maps 1:1 to Dynamics 365 Account. BoldTrail parent‑child company hierarchies map to Dynamics Parent Account lookups. Multi‑company associations on a BoldTrail contact collapse to a primary AccountId plus Account Contact Relationships in Dynamics. All standard company fields — name, address, phone, website, industry, employee count, and annual revenue — are transferred to the corresponding Account fields, and any custom company properties are stored in custom fields on the Account entity.
BoldTrail
Deal
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Opportunity
1:1BoldTrail Deal maps to Dynamics 365 Opportunity. Deal stage names map to Opportunity StageName values via value mapping; stage probabilities and forecast categories are re‑applied from Dynamics defaults unless custom stage configuration is provided before migration. All standard deal fields — name, amount, close date, pipeline, and owner — transfer to the corresponding Opportunity fields, and any BoldTrail custom deal attributes are stored in custom fields on the Opportunity entity, preserving historical context.
BoldTrail
Property
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Property (custom Dataverse table)
1:1BoldTrail Property has no native equivalent in Dynamics 365 Sales. A custom Dataverse Property table is created in your Dynamics environment with fields for address, list price, bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, property type, status, listing agent lookup, and listing date — then linked to Opportunity records via a custom lookup field.
BoldTrail
Transaction
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Transaction (custom Dataverse table) / Opportunity extension
1:1BoldTrail Transaction records — contract date, closing date, sale price, commission split, agent — require a custom Dataverse Transaction table or extension fields on Opportunity. The Transaction table links to the Property table and Opportunity, preserving the BoldTrail relationship graph.
BoldTrail
Engagement: Call
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
PhoneCall (Activity)
1:1BoldTrail call log entries map to Dynamics 365 PhoneCall activities with original start time, duration, direction (inbound/outbound), outcome, and owner preserved. The PhoneCall activity is linked to the parent Contact or Lead record, and any call notes or disposition text are stored in the Description field of the PhoneCall entity. Additionally, the PhoneCall activity includes an ActivityParty record for the caller and callee, ensuring full call‑related participant tracking within Dynamics.
BoldTrail
Engagement: Email
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Email (Activity)
1:1BoldTrail email engagement history maps to Dynamics 365 Email activities. Subject, body (plain text), timestamp, sender, and recipient are preserved. Rich HTML email bodies are stripped to text format to match Dynamics activity storage conventions, and file attachments are downloaded from BoldTrail and re‑uploaded to Dynamics 365's document storage, linked to the Email activity. The Email activity also includes ActivityParty records for the sender and each recipient, preserving communication chain.
BoldTrail
Engagement: Meeting / Showing
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Appointment (Activity)
1:1BoldTrail showing and meeting records map to Dynamics 365 Appointment activities with original start/end times, subject, location, and attendees preserved. Property‑showing appointments are linked to both the Contact and the Property record in Dataverse, and the Appointment entity captures the appointment type, description, and notes from BoldTrail. Reminder settings are applied per Dynamics preferences, and each appointment is associated with the related Opportunity when the meeting concerns a specific deal.
BoldTrail
Note / Document Attachment
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Annotation
1:1BoldTrail notes and document attachments map to Dynamics 365 Annotations. Text notes become Annotation records with isdocument=false, preserving the created‑on timestamp and author. File attachments are downloaded from BoldTrail and re‑uploaded to Dynamics 365's document storage, where they are linked to the parent record (Contact, Account, Opportunity, or Property table) via the objectid and objecttypecode fields. Each annotation also records the file name and MIME type, ensuring an audit trail.
BoldTrail
Agent / User
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
SystemUser
1:1BoldTrail agents and users are resolved by email match against Dynamics 365 SystemUser records. Unmatched BoldTrail agents are flagged before migration — your team either provisions a corresponding Dynamics user first or assigns those records to a fallback owner during migration.
BoldTrail
Tag / Segment
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Custom Field on Contact / Marketing List membership
1:1BoldTrail contact tags and segment memberships map to a multi-select custom field on Contact (tags as semicolon-delimited text) and to Marketing List membership records in Dynamics for segmentation continuity. FlitStack surfaces the full tag list for your admin to configure the target field.

Migration approach
Audit BoldTrail data model and design Dataverse schema
FlitStack connects to BoldTrail read-only to inventory all active objects — contacts, companies, deals, properties, transactions, and engagement records — and counts custom fields on each. We then produce a Dataverse schema specification: which custom tables are needed (Property__c, Transaction__c), which fields they require, and what lookups link them to Opportunities and Contacts. If your Dynamics 365 Sales Professional license caps custom tables below 15, we flag this before the migration plan is signed off so your organization can upgrade to Enterprise before schema creation begins.
Extract BoldTrail data with rate-limit-aware batching
FlitStack pulls BoldTrail records via BoldTrail's REST API using batch sizes tuned to your plan's rate limits. For large record volumes, extraction runs in off-peak hours to avoid throttling. All BoldTrail records — including properties, transactions, contacts, companies, deals, and engagement history — are extracted with their original create dates, last-modified dates, owner IDs, and association links. Extraction logs capture any rate-limit pauses and retry events so you have a complete accounting of when each record was captured.
Resolve BoldTrail agents to Dynamics 365 users by email
BoldTrail agent and user records are matched to Dynamics 365 SystemUser records by email address. FlitStack generates a pre-migration owner-resolution report showing every BoldTrail agent, their email, and whether a corresponding Dynamics 365 user exists. Unmatched agents are flagged so your team can provision Dynamics users or designate a fallback owner before the migration window. No record migrates without a confirmed Dynamics owner — either matched or assigned to a fallback.
Run a sample migration with field-level validation
A representative slice of BoldTrail data — typically 200–500 records covering contacts, accounts, opportunities, properties, transactions, and a sample of activities — migrates into Dynamics 365 first. FlitStack generates a field-level diff report comparing source values against destination field values for every mapped column. You review the diff to confirm property-to-Opportunity linking, transaction-to-Property linking, owner resolution, and custom field population before the full run is authorized.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
After sample validation, the full BoldTrail dataset migrates into Dynamics 365 via Dataverse Web API. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any BoldTrail records created or modified during the cutover — new leads, updated deal stages, or newly listed properties entered on BoldTrail while the migration runs. After the delta window closes, FlitStack performs a final reconciliation audit comparing record counts and field totals between BoldTrail and Dynamics. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation finds discrepancies above your defined tolerance threshold.
