Overview
Convert Wire stores contacts, companies, deals, tasks, notes, and custom fields in a flat CRM object model. Freshsales uses a hierarchical object model — Leads convert to Contact+Account+Deal, Contacts associate to Accounts via a lookup, and Deals (called Opportunities in Freshsales) carry stage, amount, probability, and custom fields per record. The migration carries everything Convert Wire stores natively into Freshsales with type-aware field mapping: date fields preserve original timestamps, pick-list values map value-by-value, and owner email addresses resolve against Freshsales user accounts before records land. Freshsales has no native equivalent for Convert Wire's custom workflows, sequences, or email templates — those must be rebuilt in Freshsales's automation builder post-migration. FlitStack sequences the migration Accounts first, then Contacts and Leads, then Deals — respecting Freshsales' foreign-key requirements. A delta-pickup window captures any records modified during cutover. Workflows, automations, and email templates are explicitly excluded from FlitStack's scope and documented as a rebuild task for your Freshsales admin.
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 Convert Wire object lands in Freshsales, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Convert Wire
Contact
Freshsales
Contact
1:1Convert Wire Contact maps directly to Freshsales Contact. Freshsales requires an AccountId lookup for every contact — contacts without a primary company association land under a default Account or your specified fallback Account. Email uniqueness is validated against existing Freshsales contacts before insert to prevent duplicates and maintain data integrity across the migration.
Convert Wire
Contact
Freshsales
Lead
1:manyConvert Wire contacts in a 'Lead' lifecycle stage route to Freshsales Lead. Contacts flagged as 'Customer' or 'Active' route to Freshsales Contact. The split is based on Convert Wire's lifecycle stage field value — each distinct stage value maps to a corresponding Freshsales lead status or lifecycle stage pick-list entry.
Convert Wire
Company
Freshsales
Account
1:1Convert Wire Company maps to Freshsales Account. Parent-company hierarchies in Convert Wire map to Freshsales Parent Account field — the parent must migrate first so foreign keys resolve. Multi-company associations on a single contact collapse to the most-recently-modified as the primary AccountId.
Convert Wire
Deal
Freshsales
Deal
1:1Convert Wire Deal maps to Freshsales Deal (the Freshsales UI label; API object is Opportunity). Pipeline stages map via value_mapping — each Convert Wire stage name maps to the corresponding Freshsales stage name in your target pipeline. Probability percentages are preserved as a custom field for reporting continuity.
Convert Wire
Pipeline
Freshsales
Deal Pipeline
1:1Convert Wire pipelines with multiple stages per deal become Freshsales Deal Pipelines. Freshsales supports multiple pipelines per account — each Convert Wire pipeline becomes a separate Freshsales pipeline. Stage order, names, and probability percentages are mapped value-by-value during migration plan setup, ensuring each pipeline's workflow stages translate accurately to Freshsales.
Convert Wire
Task
Freshsales
Sales Activity
1:1Convert Wire tasks migrate as Freshsales Sales Activities. Task subject, due date, status, and priority transfer directly. Owner email resolves to the Freshsales user by email match — unmatched owners are flagged before migration commits so you can assign a fallback owner.
Convert Wire
Note
Freshsales
Note
1:1Convert Wire notes migrate as Freshsales Notes with rich-text formatting preserved. Notes attached to a specific record carry the parent object reference in Freshsales so they appear in the record's timeline view, maintaining context and conversation history across migrated records.
Convert Wire
Custom Field
Freshsales
Custom Field (Contact / Account / Deal / Lead)
1:1Convert Wire custom fields on any object require Freshsales custom field creation before migration. FlitStack delivers a custom field creation plan — field type, pick-list values, and required/unique flags are set per Freshsales' allowed types. Custom fields on Convert Wire's Lead object need Freshsales lead field mapping configured in the Leads module settings.
Convert Wire
Attachment / File
Freshsales
File
1:1Convert Wire file attachments on contacts, companies, or deals re-upload to Freshsales Files. File size limits apply per Freshsales storage tier — files exceeding the limit are flagged and reported before the migration runs. Inline images in notes are downloaded and rehosted as Freshsales file attachments.
Convert Wire
Owner
Freshsales
User
1:1Convert Wire owner records resolve by email match against Freshsales user accounts. Active Freshsales users with matching email receive their assigned records automatically. Owners with no Freshsales match are held in a staging queue — FlitStack flags these before migration so your admin can either invite the user or reassign records to a designated fallback owner.

Migration approach
Audit Convert Wire data and configure Freshsales schema
FlitStack pulls a full export of Convert Wire objects — contacts, companies, deals, tasks, notes, attachments, and custom field definitions. We compare the Convert Wire field inventory against Freshsales' supported field types and flag any that require custom field creation. Your Freshsales admin creates the required custom fields and Freshsales lead field mappings before data moves. We deliver a custom field creation checklist with exact field names, types, and pick-list values sourced directly from your Convert Wire configuration.
Resolve owner records against Freshsales user accounts
FlitStack matches every Convert Wire owner email against Freshsales user accounts. Owner records with a matching email receive their Freshsales UserId and records land with the correct owner assigned. Owner records with no Freshsales match are placed in a staging queue — we deliver an unassigned-owner report 48 hours before migration so your team can invite those users or reassign their records to a designated fallback owner before the cutover window opens.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and activities — migrates first to validate the migration plan. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values against Freshsales field values so you can verify lifecycle stage mapping, deal pipeline routing, custom field population, and owner resolution before the full run commits. Any field mapping corrections, missing pick-list values, or custom field configuration issues are identified and applied before the delta window opens.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full migration loads Convert Wire data into Freshsales in the correct sequence — Accounts first, then Contacts and Leads, then Deals with their stage mapping. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any records created or modified in Convert Wire during the cutover so Freshsales reflects Convert Wire's final state at go-live. FlitStack's audit log captures every insert, update, and error so rollback is available if reconciliation uncovers unexpected field divergences.
