Overview
Moving from ConvergeHub to Odoo CRM requires working around ConvergeHub's lack of a documented public REST API. All data extraction relies on CSV exports from the platform UI, which flattens the Account-to-Contact and Contact-to-Deal relationship chains that must be manually reconstructed during staging. Odoo CRM operates as a module within the broader Odoo ERP ecosystem, meaning Opportunities are linked to Contacts rather than separate Accounts, and Cases map to the Helpdesk or Project module depending on Odoo edition. We sequence the load: Accounts and Contacts first to satisfy lookup dependencies, then Opportunities with their Contact and owner references resolved, then Cases, Invoices, and Activities. Automation rules, workflow triggers, and sequence definitions in ConvergeHub have no export path; we deliver a structured inventory of every automation with Odoo Studio equivalents for the customer's admin to rebuild post-migration. Custom fields, picklist values, and multi-select properties require explicit mapping tables generated during scoping because the two platforms use different field-type models.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a ConvergeHub object lands in Odoo CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
ConvergeHub
Leads
Odoo CRM
CRM Lead
1:1ConvergeHub Leads map to Odoo CRM Lead records. The HubSpot-style separation between Leads and Contacts does not exist in Odoo — Leads in Odoo are pre-conversion opportunities that an Odoo user manually converts to a Contact linked to a Company. We preserve all HubSpot Lead fields (status, source, assignment, score) in Odoo Lead fields, and create a custom field original_lead_source__c to retain the original HubSpot lead source for reporting continuity.
ConvergeHub
Accounts
Odoo CRM
Company
1:1ConvergeHub Accounts map to Odoo CRM Company records. The Account ID becomes the external identifier used to resolve Contact-to-Company relationships during the Contact import phase. Industry, size, address, and any custom properties map to Odoo's res.partner fields with is_company=True. Company records load first so that the Contact import can satisfy the partner_id lookup dependency.
ConvergeHub
Contacts
Odoo CRM
Contact (individual)
1:1ConvergeHub Contacts map to Odoo CRM Contact records with is_company=False linked to their parent Company via parent_id. Contact roles, lifecycle stage, phone, email, and custom fields migrate directly. The original HubSpot contact-to-account relationship reconstructs via the foreign key extracted from ConvergeHub's CSV exports, mapped to the Odoo parent_id reference on res.partner.
ConvergeHub
Deals
Odoo CRM
Opportunity
1:1ConvergeHub Deals map to Odoo CRM Opportunity records. HubSpot deal stage maps to Odoo stage_id via a configured stage sequence that we define during Odoo CRM setup. Deal value, probability, expected close date, and owner assignment migrate directly. Pipeline assignment from HubSpot maps to Odoo team_id (sales team) and a custom pipeline__c field if the customer uses multiple distinct pipelines in ConvergeHub.
ConvergeHub
Deal Stage
Odoo CRM
Stage
lossyEach HubSpot deal pipeline and its stages become an Odoo CRM stage sequence. We configure the stage names, sequence order, and probability percentages in Odoo CRM before migration. Closed-Lost and Closed-Won statuses from ConvergeHub map to Odoo's Lost and Won stage states.
ConvergeHub
Cases
Odoo CRM
Ticket (Helpdesk)
1:1ConvergeHub Cases map to Odoo Helpdesk Ticket records if the customer installs the Odoo Helpdesk module. Case status, priority, subject, description, and linked Contact/Account migrate to Ticket. Stage configuration maps ConvergeHub case statuses to Odoo ticket stages. If Helpdesk is not installed, Cases map to CRM Lead for a lighter-weight destination.
ConvergeHub
Invoices
Odoo CRM
Account Move (Accounting)
1:1ConvergeHub Invoices migrate to Odoo Accounting Account Move records. Line items, totals, tax, and payment status migrate; however, payment gateway transaction history and partial payment states require the Odoo Accounting module to be installed and configured. Invoice-to-Deal linkage is preserved via a custom field invoice_origin_deal__c.
ConvergeHub
Products
Odoo CRM
Product Template
1:1ConvergeHub Products map to Odoo Product Template records. Product name, SKU (mapped to default_code), unit price, and description migrate directly. Product associations to Deals in ConvergeHub are preserved by linking the migrated Opportunity to the migrated Product Template via Opportunity Line Items if the customer enables the Sale module.
ConvergeHub
Activities
Odoo CRM
Activity
1:1ConvergeHub Activities (calls, tasks, events, logged communications) map to Odoo Mail Activity records linked to the parent Lead, Contact, or Opportunity via res_id and res_model. Activity type, timestamp, notes, and owner assignment migrate. ConvergeHub's activity-to-record linkage reconstructs via the external ID references in the CSV exports.
ConvergeHub
Documents
Odoo CRM
Attachment
1:1ConvergeHub document metadata and blob storage references migrate to Odoo Ir Attachment records. We download file attachments from ConvergeHub, map their associations to the migrated Contact, Account, Deal, or Case, and upload them to Odoo's attachment storage. Only metadata and attachment blobs migrate; document version history is not preserved.
ConvergeHub
Custom Fields
Odoo CRM
Custom Fields
lossyConvergeHub custom fields on Accounts, Cases, Contacts, Deals, Invoices, Leads, Products, and Targets are inventoried during scoping and created as custom fields on the corresponding Odoo model (res.partner, crm.lead, sale.order, etc.) before migration begins. Picklist values, multi-select fields, and date formats are mapped in a field-level substitution table generated during discovery.
ConvergeHub
Automations
Odoo CRM
Not Migrated
lossyConvergeHub automation rules defined in the Tools section have no export path. We document each active automation via screenshots and structured notes, then deliver an Odoo Studio automation inventory that maps each HubSpot trigger-action sequence to an equivalent Odoo Automated Action or Server Action. The customer's admin rebuilds automations in Odoo Studio post-migration.
ConvergeHub
Users
Odoo CRM
User
1:1ConvergeHub User records (name, email, role, ACL assignment) map to Odoo Res Users. We resolve ConvergeHub owner assignments on Deals, Cases, and Contacts by matching email addresses to Odoo user records. Any HubSpot owner without a matching Odoo user goes to a reconciliation queue for admin provisioning before record migration.
ConvergeHub
Targets
Odoo CRM
CRM Forecast or Custom Target
1:1ConvergeHub Targets (sales goals and quota tracking) migrate as Odoo CRM Pipeline Forecast records if the customer enables the forecasting feature, or as a custom target object if the customer's Odoo configuration uses a Project-based goal structure. Target values, periods, and owner assignments migrate directly.
ConvergeHub
Quotations
Odoo CRM
Sale Order
1:1ConvergeHub Quotations map to Odoo Sale Order records. Line items, pricing, terms, and linked Deal association migrate. Product references resolve to the migrated Product Template. If Odoo Sale module is not installed, Quotations are stored as CRM Lead notes with a custom quotation__c flag for admin awareness.

Migration approach
Discovery and export planning
We audit the ConvergeHub portal across all modules — Leads, Accounts, Contacts, Deals, Cases, Invoices, Activities, Documents, Custom Fields, Targets, and Quotations — and produce record counts per module. We identify the Odoo edition and installed modules in the destination instance (Community, Online, or Enterprise) and confirm which Odoo modules are active (CRM, Helpdesk, Sale, Accounting) to scope the full migration surface. We also document active automation rules via screenshots and structured notes for the Odoo Studio rebuild inventory. The discovery output is a written migration scope with a module dependency graph and a staging order plan.
CSV extraction and staging environment setup
We extract ConvergeHub data via CSV from the platform UI, performing staged exports for modules exceeding 10,000 records to avoid UI timeout. Each CSV is validated against the ConvergeHub module record count and imported into a local staging database. We reconstruct the relationship graph (Account-Contact-Deal chains) by resolving foreign key IDs across the CSV files and generating the canonical load order. Concurrently, we set up the Odoo destination instance, install required modules (Helpdesk, Sale, Accounting as scoped), and create all custom fields identified during discovery using Odoo Studio or direct XML definition.
Field mapping and data transformation
We generate a field-level mapping table that pairs each ConvergeHub field (including custom fields) with its Odoo equivalent model and field name. Picklist values are substituted using the substitution table generated during scoping. Date formats are normalized. The ConvergeHub owner email addresses are matched against Odoo User records, and any unmatched owners go to a reconciliation queue for admin provisioning. The transformation outputs flat CSV files per Odoo model, ready for XML-RPC load.
Staging migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into the Odoo destination instance using the XML-RPC API with batch chunking and exponential backoff. The customer reconciles record counts (Accounts in, Contacts in, Leads in, Opportunities in, Cases in, Invoices in), spot-checks 25-50 random records against the ConvergeHub source, and validates relationship integrity (Contacts linked to Companies, Opportunities linked to Contacts). Any mapping corrections happen in the staging step before production migration begins.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies first, then individual Contacts with parent_id resolved to Companies, then Leads, then Opportunities with contact_id and user_id resolved, then Cases (if Helpdesk installed), then Invoices (if Accounting installed), then Activities and Documents. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. The ConvergeHub portal is placed in read-only mode during the production cutover window to prevent new data entry that would be missed by the final delta.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze ConvergeHub writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then set Odoo as the system of record. We deliver the Odoo Studio automation inventory document mapping each documented ConvergeHub automation to an equivalent Automated Action or Server Action. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild ConvergeHub automations as Odoo Studio actions inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement or an internal admin task.
