Overview
GP Flow targets real estate sponsors managing capital raises and investor relationships, storing contacts, companies, opportunities, and custom investment-specific objects. Twenty CRM provides People, Companies, Opportunities, Notes, and Tasks as standard objects with unlimited custom objects on all tiers. We map GP Flow contacts to Twenty People, GP Flow companies to Twenty Companies, and GP Flow opportunities to Twenty Opportunities. Custom investment objects migrate to Twenty custom objects, with relationship fields rebuilt using Twenty's relation field type. GP Flow workflows, approval sequences, and investor portal logic do not migrate — we export workflow definitions as a reference document for manual rebuild in Twenty's workflow builder. Our migration engine reads from GP Flow's export API, transforms data to match Twenty's field types and naming conventions, and writes via Twenty's REST and GraphQL API endpoints. A sample migration with field-level diff runs first; the full cutover captures in-flight changes with a 24-48 hour delta pickup window 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 GP Flow object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
GP Flow
Contact
Twenty CRM
People
1:1GP Flow Contact records map to Twenty People. The contact's first name and last name concatenate into People.name, email populates People.email, phone maps to People.phone, and jobtitle maps to People.jobTitle. Owner assignment resolves by matching the GP Flow owner email to a Twenty workspace member; unmatched owners are flagged for fallback assignment, and the GP Flow contact ID is stored in a custom Source_System_ID__c field to support delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
Company
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1GP Flow Company records map to Twenty Companies. Company name populates Company.name, domain maps to Company.domain, and industry maps to Company.industry with value mapping applied for any pick‑list discrepancies. Parent‑company hierarchies use GP Flow’s ParentId field to set Twenty’s Company.parentId, requiring the parent company to be migrated first to maintain referential integrity. The original GP Flow company ID is saved in a custom Source_System_ID__c field for delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
Opportunity
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1GP Flow Opportunity records map to Twenty Opportunities. Opportunity name populates Opportunity.name, amount maps to Opportunity.amount, stage maps to Opportunity.stage, and close_date maps to Opportunity.closeDate. Each Opportunity links to its parent Company via Opportunity.companyId, which requires the Company record to exist first. Owner assignment resolves via email match to a Twenty workspace member; the GP Flow opportunity ID is saved in a custom Source_System_ID__c field for delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
CustomObject:Fund
Twenty CRM
CustomObject:Fund
1:1GP Flow custom Fund object maps to a Twenty custom Fund object. Fund name, target_amount, commitment_total, vintage_year, and any other fund‑specific fields are migrated as identically named custom fields on the Twenty Fund object, preserving data types and pick‑list values. The original GP Flow fund ID is stored in a custom Source_System_ID__c field, allowing CapitalCall and Distribution records to reference the correct Fund via Twenty’s relation field type after migration.
GP Flow
CustomObject:CapitalCall
Twenty CRM
CustomObject:CapitalCall
1:1Capital call records migrate to a Twenty CapitalCall custom object linked to the Fund and the investor People record. The GP Flow call_amount, call_date, and due_date fields map to identically named fields on the Twenty CapitalCall object, preserving numeric formatting and date precision. The original GP Flow call ID is saved in a custom Source_System_ID__c field for referential integrity with downstream Distribution records and for delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
CustomObject:Distribution
Twenty CRM
CustomObject:Distribution
1:1Distribution records from GP Flow migrate to Twenty’s Distribution custom object, linked to the Fund and the investor People record via Twenty’s relation field type. Fields such as distribution_amount, distribution_date, and recipient_investor map to identically named custom fields on the Twenty Distribution object, preserving currency formatting and date precision. The original GP Flow distribution ID is stored in a custom Source_System_ID__c field for referential integrity and delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
Activity:Call
Twenty CRM
Task
1:1GP Flow call activity logs are migrated as Twenty Tasks. The call subject becomes Task.taskTitle, call notes populate Task.body, and the original call timestamp is stored in Task.dueDate to preserve the activity date. Each Task is linked to the related People record via Twenty’s relation field, and the GP Flow activity ID is saved in a custom Source_System_ID__c field for delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
Activity:Email
Twenty CRM
Task
1:1GP Flow email records are migrated as Twenty Tasks. The email subject line becomes Task.taskTitle, the email body populates Task.body, and any attachments are re‑uploaded to Twenty Files and linked to the Task via Twenty’s file attachment mechanism. The original email timestamp is stored in Task.dueDate to preserve activity timing, and the GP Flow email ID is saved in a custom Source_System_ID__c field for delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
Activity:Meeting
Twenty CRM
Task
1:1GP Flow meeting records become Twenty Tasks. The meeting subject maps to Task.taskTitle, the scheduled date becomes Task.dueDate, and meeting notes are written to Task.body. Attendees are linked to the Task via Twenty’s relation fields to People, preserving the attendee roster. The original GP Flow meeting ID is stored in a custom Source_System_ID__c field for delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
Note
Twenty CRM
Note
1:1GP Flow notes migrate to Twenty Notes, preserving the note body and original creation timestamp. Each note is linked to its parent record (People, Company, or Opportunity) using Twenty’s noteableId and noteableType fields, ensuring the note appears in the correct record’s timeline. The original GP Flow note ID is stored in a custom Source_System_ID__c field for delta‑run de‑duplication.
GP Flow
Owner
Twenty CRM
WorkspaceMember
1:1GP Flow owner records resolve by email match against Twenty workspace members. If a GP Flow owner has no matching Twenty user, their records attach to a fallback assignee — we flag unmatched owners before migration so you can create or invite the accounts first.
GP Flow
Attachment/File
Twenty CRM
File
1:1GP Flow file attachments on any record are re‑uploaded to Twenty Files and linked to the corresponding People, Company, Opportunity, or custom object record. File size limits on Twenty apply (default 25 MB per file); we chunk files exceeding this threshold and surface any that exceed the limit for manual handling. The original GP Flow attachment ID is stored in a custom Source_System_ID__c field to track lineage and enable delta‑run de‑duplication.

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.
GP Flow gotchas
No public API for bulk export
Distribution waterfall logic is calculated, not stored
Investor portal credentials and activity logs do not migrate
Digital-securities module availability varies by tier
Catalog website resolves to an unrelated open-source library
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit GP Flow data model and prepare Twenty schema
We extract a full schema inventory from GP Flow covering every standard and custom object, field names, field types, and pick-list values. We compare this against Twenty's standard objects (People, Company, Opportunities, Notes, Tasks) and design the custom object and field plan for any investment-specific objects like Fund, CapitalCall, and Distribution. You receive a schema setup checklist listing exactly which custom objects and fields to create in Twenty Settings > Data Model before import files are generated.
Invite Twenty workspace members and resolve owner assignments
Twenty requires workspace members to exist before owner and assignee fields can link correctly. We run an owner resolution check matching GP Flow owner email addresses against the Twenty member list. Unmatched owners are flagged with actionable steps — invite the user to Twenty first, or designate a fallback assignee. No opportunity or contact record lands without a resolved owner.
Migrate Companies first, then People, then Opportunities
Twenty enforces referential integrity: Company records must exist before People records can link via companyId, and People records must exist before Opportunities can link via contactId or companyId. We sequence the migration load order accordingly: Companies (including Fund custom objects), then People (including investor records), then Opportunities, then related custom objects like CapitalCall and Distribution. Each stage validates record counts and relationship integrity before the next stage begins.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 200-500 records spanning contacts, companies, opportunities, and a fund or capital call record — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff comparing source GP Flow values against the Twenty record values so you can verify field name mapping, pick-list value mapping, owner resolution, and timestamp preservation before the full dataset commits. You approve the sample results before we proceed to the full migration run.
Full migration run with delta-pickup cutover window
The full dataset migrates against Twenty. A 24-48 hour delta-pickup window captures any GP Flow records created or modified during the cutover so Twenty reflects the final state of your GP Flow instance at go-live. Audit logs record every operation. If reconciliation reveals discrepancies, one-click rollback reverts the Twenty instance to its pre-migration state so you can investigate and re-run without data loss.
