Overview
Dr.DENTES is a dental and specialist practice management platform that stores patient records, appointment schedules, treatment plans, and billing data via a customer-gated REST API. Freshsales (Freshworks CRM) structures data around Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Deals, Products, and Sales Activities — with custom fields, deal pipelines, and Freddy AI scoring available on paid plans. The migration maps Dr.DENTES patient and service records into Freshsales CRM objects, translating practice-specific fields (treatment type, recall intervals, insurance status) into Freshsales custom fields on Contact and Account records. Custom dental objects in Dr.DENTES map to Freshsales custom modules where available, or to custom fields with a reference flag for manual organisation post-migration. Activities (appointments, notes, communications) migrate as Freshsales Sales Activities. Workflows, appointment reminders, and recall automation in Dr.DENTES do not transfer — those must be rebuilt in Freshsales Workflows or via the Freshworks Marketplace after go-live. FlitStack uses the Dr.DENTES API for structured extraction and the Freshsales Bulk API for high-volume ingestion, with a sample migration and field-level diff before the full run commits.
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 Dr.DENTES 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.
Dr.DENTES
Patient / Contact Record
Freshsales
Contact
1:1Dr.DENTES patient records map directly to Freshsales Contacts. The patient's full name, date of birth, contact details, and address migrate as Contact fields. Owner is resolved by email match against Freshsales users; unmatched records are flagged before migration commits. Custom fields such as treatment_type and insurance_provider are mapped to Freshsales custom fields on the Contact object during the migration.
Dr.DENTES
Patient Record (unconverted lead)
Freshsales
Lead
1:1Dr.DENTES patients who have not yet booked a first appointment map to Freshsales Leads. The Lead captures contact details, lead source (referral, walk-in, marketing), and any Dr.DENTES custom fields such as 'inquiry_type'. Conversion creates a linked Contact and Account. Unconverted Leads remain available in Freshsales for follow-up campaigns and future appointment scheduling.
Dr.DENTES
Practice / Clinic Account
Freshsales
Account
1:1Each Dr.DENTES clinic or practice location maps to a Freshsales Account. Account stores clinic name, address, phone, and industry classification (Healthcare/Dental). Multi-location practices create parent Account relationships in Freshsales using the Parent Account field. This hierarchy enables roll-up reporting of revenue, patient volume, and practitioner productivity across all clinic locations from the parent Account.
Dr.DENTES
Treatment Case / Appointment Event
Freshsales
Deal
1:1Dr.DENTES treatment cases and completed appointment events transform into Freshsales Deals. Each deal captures the patient (Contact), clinic (Account), treatment type, estimated billing, and pipeline stage (New Appointment → In Treatment → Invoiced → Closed Won/Lost). Deal owner maps to the Dr.DENTES practitioner or office manager.
Dr.DENTES
Appointment Schedule
Freshsales
Sales Activity
1:1Dr.DENTES appointment slots migrate as Freshsales Sales Activities with Type='Appointment'. Start time, end time, practitioner (owner), patient (Contact lookup), and clinic (Account lookup) are preserved. Cancelled appointments migrate with status='Cancelled' for historical reporting. The appointment duration is calculated by adding duration_minutes to the start_date to determine the end_date in Freshsales.
Dr.DENTES
Treatment Note / Clinical Record
Freshsales
Note
1:1Clinical notes and treatment summaries in Dr.DENTES migrate as Freshsales Notes attached to the relevant Contact or Deal record. Original timestamps and author (owner) are preserved. Notes exceeding 32 KB are split across multiple Freshsales Note records. The Note title includes the original Dr.DENTES record identifier for traceability back to the source system.
Dr.DENTES
Recall / Re-engagement Record
Freshsales
Task
1:1Dr.DENTES recall intervals and re-engagement reminders transform into Freshsales Tasks on the Contact record with a due date. The recall reason (e.g., '6-month checkup', 'treatment follow-up') is stored as the Task subject. Completed recalls migrate as closed Tasks. The Task includes a reference to the original Dr.DENTES recall interval and the last appointment date that triggered the recall.
Dr.DENTES
Billing / Insurance Record
Freshsales
Custom Field on Deal
1:1Insurance provider, policy number, coverage percentage, and outstanding balance from Dr.DENTES billing records migrate to Freshsales custom fields on the Deal object (Insurance_Provider__c, Coverage_Percent__c, Outstanding_Balance__c). These fields are created in Freshsales before the migration run. The custom field mapping ensures insurance information is available on every Deal for billing follow-up and financial reporting in Freshsales.
Dr.DENTES
Custom Dental Module
Freshsales
Custom Module / Custom Field
1:1Dr.DENTES custom modules (e.g., imaging records, lab work tracking, prescribed medications) map to Freshsales custom fields on the Contact or Deal object. Where the source module has multiple related records per patient, a Freshsales custom module is created via the Freshworks developer platform.
Dr.DENTES
Practitioner / Staff User
Freshsales
User
1:1Dr.DENTES practitioner and staff accounts map to Freshsales Users by email address. Active/inactive status and role (Dentist, Hygienist, Office Manager, Receptionist) are stored in Freshsales User fields. Unmatched practitioners are flagged for admin review before the migration. Each User receives the appropriate Freshsales role and profile settings based on their Dr.DENTES role during migration.
Dr.DENTES
Product / Service Item
Freshsales
Product
1:1Treatment codes, service descriptions, and pricing from Dr.DENTES migrate to Freshsales Products with unit price. Products are linked to Deals via Deal Products (line items) for billing and quote generation in Freshsales. The Product code from Dr.DENTES is stored in the Freshsales Product description field for reference during billing reconciliation.
Dr.DENTES
Workflow / Automation Rule
Freshsales
Freshsales Workflow
1:1Dr.DENTES appointment reminders, recall sequences, and patient communication automations have no direct equivalent in Freshsales. FlitStack exports the workflow definitions as a rebuild reference document for the Freshsales admin. Workflow recreation is a separate project scoped post-migration. The reference document includes trigger conditions, interval settings, and notification methods used in each Dr.DENTES automation.
Dr.DENTES
Integration Connection
Freshsales
Freshworks Marketplace / API
1:1Third-party integrations connected to Dr.DENTES (imaging software, lab portals, payment processors) must be rebuilt as Freshworks Marketplace apps or custom API integrations. FlitStack documents the connection endpoints and credentials for the migration team. The documentation includes API endpoint URLs, authentication requirements, and data formats used by each integration for reconstruction in the Freshworks ecosystem.

Migration approach
Confirm Dr.DENTES API access and run discovery extraction
FlitStack obtains Dr.DENTES API credentials (base_url and access token) from the practice admin. We run a discovery extraction across all accessible objects — Contacts, Accounts, Deals, Activities, Products, Users, and custom modules — to document the full schema and record counts. The discovery report confirms object availability, custom field definitions, and any data-quality flags (duplicate records, missing required fields) before we write the migration plan.
Create Freshsales custom fields and configure the target schema
Before any data is ingested, FlitStack delivers a Freshsales field-creation checklist: every Dr.DENTES custom field (treatment_type, insurance_provider, recall_interval, imaging_reference, outstanding_balance) is mapped to a Freshsales custom field with the correct type (pick-list, number, text, currency, date). The Freshsales admin creates these fields under Admin Settings. Pipeline stages in Freshsales are configured to match Dr.DENTES case stages (New, In Treatment, Awaiting Payment, Completed) with probability values and forecast categories.
Resolve owner and user mappings by email match
Dr.DENTES practitioner and staff IDs are matched against Freshsales users by email address. Unmatched owners are flagged with their Dr.DENTES name and email so the Freshsales admin can invite them to the workspace before migration runs. Contacts with no associated owner are assigned to a designated fallback Freshsales user. Products and Deal owners are resolved in the same pass to avoid orphan records.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of 200–500 records migrates first — spanning Contacts across different treatment types, Deals at different stages, and Activities with various owners. FlitStack generates a field-level diff comparing source values against Freshsales field values for every mapped field. Your team reviews the diff to confirm treatment_type values landed in the correct Freshsales pick-list, recall intervals are numeric, outstanding balances are in the right currency format, and owner resolution is accurate before the full run commits.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup cutover window
The full dataset migrates using Freshsales Bulk API for high-volume contacts and accounts, with individual API calls for Deals and Activities to preserve relationship links. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any records created or modified in Dr.DENTES during the cutover. FlitStack generates an audit log of every record operation (create, update, link) and one-click rollback is available if reconciliation uncovers unexpected mapping behaviour. Post-migration, the Dr.DENTES workflow-export document is handed off for Freshsales Workflow recreation.
