Overview
Gensolve Practice Manager organises healthcare practice data around clients, practitioners, appointments, clinical notes, referrals, and clinics, with integrated Xero accounting. Zoho CRM uses Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Deals, Events, Tasks, and custom modules as its core objects. We map Gensolve client records to Zoho Contacts (or Leads for unconverted prospects), practitioners to Zoho Users with practitioner-type profiles, and appointments to Zoho Events with practitioner links stored via a custom lookup field. Referral and clinic data migrate into Zoho custom modules named Referrers and Clinics with all custom fields preserved. Clinical notes require transformation into Zoho Notes format or subform fields. Gensolve's Xero-linked accounting has no native Zoho CRM equivalent; financial records stay in Xero and are linked post-migration via Zoho Books or manual reconciliation. Our migration runs against Gensolve's account-manager-mediated export files and inserts into Zoho via the Zoho CRM Bulk API with OAuth2 authentication, respecting Zoho API credit limits and rate throttling. A sample migration of 50–100 records validates field mapping 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 Gensolve Practice Manager object lands in Zoho CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Client
Zoho CRM
Contact
1:1Gensolve client records map to Zoho CRM Contacts for confirmed patients. Name, email, phone, address, date of birth, and all custom client fields migrate into Zoho Contact fields and custom fields. Unconverted or prospect-level clients can land as Zoho Leads first.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Client (prospect)
Zoho CRM
Lead
1:manyGensolve clients with no completed appointment history or unconfirmed enquiry status split to Zoho Leads. Once the lead converts to a deal in Zoho, a corresponding Contact record is created. This keeps the pipeline clean and prevents inactive contacts from inflating the CRM contact count.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Practitioner
Zoho CRM
User
1:1Gensolve practitioner records map to Zoho CRM Users. Name, email, phone, and specialisation fields migrate to the User record. Practitioner-specific fields (e.g., AHPRA registration, provider numbers) become custom fields on the User record. A practitioner-type profile is assigned so they have CRM access without standard sales-role constraints.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Appointment
Zoho CRM
Event
1:1Gensolve appointments migrate as Zoho CRM Events. Appointment date, time, duration, type, and status map to Event Start DateTime, End DateTime, Event Type, and a custom Status__c picklist. The Gensolve practitioner link stores as a custom lookup field (Practitioner_ID__c) referencing the Zoho User record.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Clinical Note
Zoho CRM
Note + Custom Subform
1:1Gensolve clinical notes are structured per custom form template. For each Gensolve custom form used for clinical documentation, we create a Zoho CRM subform on the Contact record containing the same field set. Plain-text notes also create Zoho Notes attached to the Contact. Template formatting does not carry over.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Referrer
Zoho CRM
Referrers (Custom Module)
1:1Gensolve referral source records (e.g., GP referrals, specialist referrals) create a Zoho custom module named Referrers. Fields map to Referrer Name, Contact Name (lookup), Referrer Type (custom picklist), Phone, Email, and Address. Custom fields for referral source details are preserved on the module.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Clinic
Zoho CRM
Clinics (Custom Module)
1:1Gensolve multi-location clinic records map to a Zoho custom module named Clinics. Clinic Name, Address, Phone, Primary Contact, and ACC Accreditation Status migrate as custom fields on the module. Location-specific settings stored in Gensolve become text or picklist custom fields in Zoho.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Custom Form
Zoho CRM
Custom Fields / Subform
1:1Gensolve custom forms define field sets for specific record types (e.g., intake forms, assessment templates). Each custom form field maps to either a Zoho CRM custom field on the Contact or Event module, or a subform section if the form contains repeating field groups. Field type conversions (date, number, picklist) are applied per Zoho field-type rules.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Inventory Item
Zoho CRM
Product
1:1Gensolve product/inventory items for billing and stock tracking map to Zoho CRM Products. Product Name, SKU, and Unit Price carry over directly. Supplier details, item type, and stock-on-hand values migrate as custom fields on the Product record since Zoho CRM does not have native inventory management.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Xero Financial Records
Zoho CRM
No Equivalent (External)
1:1Gensolve invoices, payments, and accounting data are linked to Xero, not stored within Gensolve's own database. These records have no CRM equivalent in Zoho CRM. We document the Xero-to-Zoho Books migration path so the finance team can re-establish billing in Zoho Books post-migration if desired.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Online Booking Source
Zoho CRM
Custom Field on Event
1:1Gensolve booking portal sources (eлинк, HotDoc, Healthengine) store on the appointment record. This value migrates as a custom picklist field Booking_Source__c on the Zoho Event, allowing reports on referral origin by practitioner or date range.
Gensolve Practice Manager
Attachment / File
Zoho CRM
Attachments (Zoho CRM)
1:1Gensolve file attachments (referral letters, imaging results, consent forms) attached to client records migrate as Zoho CRM Attachments linked to the corresponding Contact record. Files are downloaded from Gensolve's export and re-uploaded via Zoho's attachment API, respecting the 25 MB per-file limit.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
Gensolve Practice Manager gotchas
Gensolve requires direct support coordination for data exports
Xero-linked invoices risk duplication without deduplication flags
Custom field registry is per-practice and requires enumeration before mapping
SMS and email template content is not stored as standalone records
Zoho CRM gotchas
API access requires Professional tier or above
Subform fields do not export cleanly via CSV
API credit consumption is non-linear
Export download links expire in 7 days
Owner (User) assignments require pre-mapped user IDs
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Engage Gensolve account manager for data export
FlitStack contacts the client's Gensolve account manager to request a full data export. We specify the required objects: Clients, Practitioners, Appointments, Clinical Notes (per custom form), Referrers, Clinics, Custom Fields metadata, and any attached files. The export is delivered as zip archives. We validate file completeness against the client's estimated record counts before proceeding to mapping.
Design Zoho CRM schema for Gensolve data
Before any data moves, we design the Zoho CRM schema based on the Gensolve export structure. This includes creating the Contact custom fields (DOB, Medicare, health fund), the Practitioner profile and custom fields, the custom Referrers and Clinics modules with all required fields, Event custom fields for appointment status and booking source, and subforms for each Gensolve clinical note custom form template. We deliver a Zoho setup plan so the client's Zoho admin can pre-create the schema before data lands.
Map and validate field mapping against sample data
Using the Gensolve export files, we build the full field mapping spreadsheet covering all 50+ field pairs. We run a sample migration of 50–100 records (mix of Contacts, Practitioners, Events, Referrers, and a clinic) into the Zoho sandbox environment. The field-level diff validates that Gensolve appointment types map to Event Type values correctly, practitioner links resolve to Zoho User lookups, custom form clinical notes land in the correct subform sections, and referral type picklist values match Zoho's defined options.
Execute full migration with practitioner and appointment sequencing
The full migration runs in dependency order: Practitioners (Users) first so appointment lookups resolve, then Referrers and Clinics (custom modules), then Clients (Contacts with all custom fields), then Appointments (Events with Who_Id and Practitioner_ID__c lookups). Files and attachments upload via Zoho's attachment API. Zoho API rate limits are respected via throttling. The migration audit log captures every record inserted, updated, or skipped.
Delta-pickup and go-live with rollback available
A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours after the initial migration run captures any Gensolve records modified during the migration window. Client team continues working in Gensolve throughout. On go-live, FlitStack delivers the final reconciliation report comparing Gensolve record counts against Zoho inserted counts. If reconciliation fails, one-click rollback reverts the Zoho environment to its pre-migration state. Post-go-live, we provide a rebuild reference for Gensolve automations and workflows to be recreated in Zoho Blueprint.
