Overview
Housecall Pro organizes home service operations around Jobs, Customers, Property Profiles, Estimates, Invoices, and a Price Book — each with its own API endpoint. Salesforce Sales Cloud uses a fundamentally different object model: Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, and Cases. There is no native Job object in Salesforce, so FlitStack creates a custom Job__c object to carry Housecall Pro job records with all their FSM-specific fields. The migration extracts Housecall Pro data via the REST API (Customers, Jobs, Estimates, Invoices, Price Book, Property Profiles, and Tags), transforms each record to match Salesforce conventions (AccountId lookups, Opportunity Contact Roles, RecordTypeId assignments), and loads via the Salesforce Bulk API. Scheduling windows become Events with custom technician and route fields. Property Profile equipment lists (A/C make, model, serial number) migrate as custom Job_Equipment__c records. The Price Book becomes a custom Price_Book__c object with Price_Book_Entry__c children. Automations, routing logic, and SMS/notification templates built in Housecall Pro do not have Salesforce equivalents and must be rebuilt in Salesforce Flow. We provide an automation-export deliverable as a rebuild reference. Delta-pickup captures any Housecall Pro records modified during the cutover window.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Housecall Pro object lands in Salesforce Sales Cloud, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Housecall Pro
Customer
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account + Contact
1:1Housecall Pro Customers map directly to Salesforce Accounts. The primary address becomes the Account billing/service address. Contact fields (name, email, phone) sit on the related Contact record. Sub-customers in Housecall Pro become child Accounts with ParentId linking to the parent Account.
Housecall Pro
Customer address
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account Address Fields + Service_Location__c
1:1Housecall Pro allows multiple addresses per customer, separating billing and service locations. Salesforce Accounts can store only one primary address. FlitStack maps the primary service address to the standard Account fields and creates Service_Location__c junction records for any additional addresses. Each Service_Location__c record retains the address type, street, city, state, zip, and links to the parent Account via AccountId, preserving the original role from Housecall Pro.
Housecall Pro
Property Profile
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Job_Equipment__c (custom object)
1:1Housecall Pro Property Profile stores equipment lists per address (A/C type, make, model, serial number, install date). Salesforce has no native equivalent. FlitStack creates a Job_Equipment__c custom object linked to the Account's service address, preserving item type, make, model, serial number, and install date fields.
Housecall Pro
Job
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Job__c (custom object)
1:1Housecall Pro Jobs are the core FSM record — they have no Salesforce equivalent. FlitStack creates a Job__c custom object with fields for job status, job type, scheduled date, technician, route ID, service address, customer reference, and pricing. Job__c links to the Account via AccountId.
Housecall Pro
Job
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
many:1Housecall Pro Jobs that generate revenue—whether invoiced or estimated—also flow into Salesforce Opportunities for pipeline reporting. The Opportunity captures the monetary amount, sales stage, and expected close date from the job, while Job__c remains the FSM record of truth. FlitStack maps job amount to Opportunity.Amount, translates job status to a stage value, and records the close date from the job’s scheduled completion.
Housecall Pro
Estimate
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Estimate__c (custom object)
1:1Housecall Pro Estimates are customer-facing proposals that have no direct counterpart in Salesforce's standard objects. FlitStack creates a custom Estimate__c object to store each estimate, including fields for the total amount, status (Draft, Sent, Accepted, Declined), the linked Account, and a reference to the associated Job__c. This allows the sales team to track estimate history and conversion rates directly within Salesforce, while preserving the original estimate data from Housecall Pro.
Housecall Pro
Invoice
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity + Custom Invoice Fields
1:1Housecall Pro Invoices carry line items, tax, and payment status. Salesforce has no native Invoice object (Revenue Cloud is separate licensing). FlitStack captures invoice amount and status as custom fields on the linked Opportunity and stores the invoice number in Invoice_Number__c for reference.
Housecall Pro
Price Book
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Price_Book__c + Price_Book_Entry__c (custom objects)
1:1Housecall Pro Price Book (services, materials, flat rates) maps to custom Price_Book__c with Price_Book_Entry__c children holding service name, unit price, description, and cost. Standard Salesforce Pricebook2 is tied to the product model and does not match Housecall Pro's flat-rate service entries.
Housecall Pro
Job Appointment
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Event
1:1Housecall Pro Job Appointments specify the scheduled time window and the technician assigned to each job. In Salesforce, these become Event records holding start and end datetime, and the assigned user via OwnerId. FlitStack adds custom Technician__c and Route_ID__c fields to the Event to preserve the Housecall Pro routing context and link the Event back to the related Job__c. Dispatchers can then see both calendar and FSM details together.
Housecall Pro
Employee / Technician
Salesforce Sales Cloud
User
1:1Housecall Pro employees and technicians map to Salesforce Users by email match. Unmatched employees are flagged before migration — your team either creates Salesforce users or assigns their jobs to a fallback owner. Role and certification data migrate as custom fields on User.
Housecall Pro
Tag
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Tag Field + Report
1:1Housecall Pro Tags act as both customer and job labels, such as 'VIP', 'Commercial', or 'HVAC'. FlitStack transfers these tags into a custom multi-select pick-list field on the relevant Salesforce object (Account, Contact, or Job__c) so users can filter and segment records without manual entry. Additionally, FlitStack generates a Tag_Map__c report that pairs each original Housecall Pro tag with its Salesforce counterpart, allowing administrators to perform bulk re-tagging after migration.
Housecall Pro
Lead / Lead Source
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead + Lead_Source__c
1:1Housecall Pro Leads and Lead Sources migrate to Salesforce Leads, with the original lead source stored in a custom Lead_Source__c field to preserve marketing attribution. Housecall Pro lead status values are translated to Salesforce Lead Status via a value-mapping table, aligning stages such as New, Contacted, and Qualified with your picklist. This ensures a clean handover of lead data without loss of source or status information.

Migration approach
Extract Housecall Pro data via REST API
FlitStack connects to Housecall Pro using API key authentication (MAX plan required) and exports all objects: Customers, Jobs, Estimates, Invoices, Price Book, Property Profiles, Employees, Leads, and Tags. Each object is pulled via its dedicated endpoint (GET /customers, GET /jobs, GET /price-book, etc.). We capture created_at and updated_at timestamps for every record to enable delta-pickup during the cutover window. If your Housecall Pro plan does not include API access, we work with the data export available on MAX plans or advise on upgrading before migration.
Design Salesforce custom object schema
Based on the Housecall Pro data inventory, FlitStack delivers a Salesforce schema design document specifying: the Job__c custom object with all FSM fields, Job_Equipment__c as a child of Job__c, Estimate__c linked to Job__c, Price_Book__c with Price_Book_Entry__c children, and all custom fields needed on standard objects. The document includes API field names, pick-list values, data types, and which fields map to existing Salesforce standard fields vs. custom fields. Your Salesforce admin creates the schema in your sandbox first; FlitStack validates it before the migration dry run.
Map and transform all records in staging
All Housecall Pro records are mapped to Salesforce objects: Customers → Accounts + Contacts, Jobs → Job__c + Opportunity (for revenue), Property Profiles → Job_Equipment__c, Estimates → Estimate__c, Price Book → Price_Book__c + Price_Book_Entry__c. Technician email addresses are resolved to Salesforce User IDs. Sub-customers receive ParentId linking. Job status values are translated via the value-mapping table to the custom Job_Status__c pick-list. Records that cannot be matched (unresolved technicians, orphaned addresses) are flagged in a pre-migration exception report.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice migrates first — typically 100–500 records spanning customers, jobs, estimates, and price book entries. FlitStack generates a field-level diff between the Housecall Pro source record and the Salesforce destination record so you can verify: that technician assignment is correct, that property profile equipment lists are fully populated in Job_Equipment__c, that estimate status and amounts match, and that price book entries are correctly structured. You approve the sample before the full migration commits.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup
The full migration loads via the Salesforce Bulk API in batches. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) runs in parallel, capturing any Housecall Pro records created or modified during the cutover. FlitStack generates a reconciliation report comparing record counts and field totals between Housecall Pro and Salesforce. If reconciliation fails, one-click rollback reverts the Salesforce org to its pre-migration state. The automation-export reference document is delivered alongside the migration completion report.
