Overview

What this migration involves

Husky Intelligence is a field-service management platform built around Jobs, Quotes, Invoices, and Scheduling — it has no native Lead or Account concept in the CRM sense; customers and sites are tracked as name-value pairs on job records. Dynamics 365 Sales is a CRM built on Microsoft Dataverse that centers on Leads, Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities, with a separate Field Service app handling job dispatch. The migration therefore requires more than a field-to-field map: we must decompose each Husky Job into a Dynamics 365 Account record, a Contact, and a Case or Work Order, then re-attach site and schedule data as custom fields or related records. We map Quotes to Dynamics Quotes and Invoices to Sales Orders, preserving line-item detail. Owner resolution happens via email match against Dynamics 365 users. We use the Dataverse Web API for all writes, respecting Power Platform API request limits. Workflows, scheduling rules, and route-planning configurations are not migrated — we export them as JSON definitions for your Dynamics 365 admin to rebuild using Power Automate or the Field Service scheduling engine. A delta-pickup window captures any Husky records modified during the cutover so Dynamics 365 reflects the final state at go-live.

Object mapping

How Husky Intelligence objects map to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Each row shows how a Husky Intelligence object lands in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales , including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.

Husky Intelligence

Job

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Case / Work Order

1:1
Fully supported

Husky Jobs carry customer details, site location, operative assignment, and schedule time all in one record. We decompose each Job into a Dynamics 365 Account (customer), a Contact (site contact), and a Case (job record) with custom fields capturing operative, duration, and route data. For field-service-heavy setups, a Work Order is used instead of Case.

Husky Intelligence

Job.customer_name

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Account

many:1
Fully supported

Husky stores no standalone Account entity — customer names live on Job records. We extract unique customer names across all Jobs, create an Account for each, and link all related Jobs to that Account via the CustomerId lookup. Address data from the Job's site fields populates the Account address.

Husky Intelligence

Job.site_contact

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

Site-level contacts from Job records are created as Dynamics 365 Contacts linked to the parent Account. The Contact's email and phone come from the Job's contact fields. If a Job has no named contact, the Account's primary contact is used.

Husky Intelligence

Quote

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Quote

1:1
Fully supported

Husky Quotes map 1:1 to Dynamics 365 Quote entities — name, status, expiration date, and total amount transfer directly without transformation. Each Quote Detail (line item) stored as a JSON array on the Husky Quote becomes a Quote Detail child row in Dynamics 365. If the Husky Quote references products by ID, we cross-reference the Dynamics 365 product catalog or create minimal product records to preserve line-item accuracy.

Husky Intelligence

Quote Detail

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Quote Detail

1:1
Fully supported

Quote line items transfer as Dynamics 365 Quote Details: product name, quantity, unit price, tax, and discount all map to their corresponding Dataverse columns. If Husky stores a product ID, we look it up in the Dynamics product catalog or create a basic product record.

Husky Intelligence

Invoice

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Sales Order

1:1
Fully supported

Husky Invoices transfer as Dynamics 365 Sales Orders. The Invoice status (paid, overdue, voided) maps to the Order status field. Line items transfer as Order Products. Partial payments tracked in Husky are recorded as a note on the Dynamics Order.

Husky Intelligence

Job.operative

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Bookable Resource / User

1:1
Fully supported

Husky operative names resolve to Dynamics 365 Bookable Resources by email match against active Dynamics users. If no match is found, the operative becomes a User record first, then a Bookable Resource, ensuring scheduling continuity. Unmatched operatives are flagged before migration.

Husky Intelligence

Job.schedule_start / schedule_end

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Bookable Resource Booking

1:1
Fully supported

Husky schedule time slots transfer as Bookable Resource Booking records in the Dynamics 365 Field Service context. Start time, end time, duration, and the linked Case or Work Order are preserved. If the Field Service app is not provisioned, times are stored as custom datetime fields on the Case.

Husky Intelligence

Site / Location

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Account (Site) / Custom Address Entity

many:1
Fully supported

Husky Sites carry an address, customer name, and site-level notes. We create a child Account record with the Site name for multi-location customers, or attach the address to the primary Account using the Address composite field. Site-specific notes migrate as a custom text field on the related Contact or Case.

Husky Intelligence

Timecard

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Activity (Task) / Time Entry

1:1
Fully supported

Husky Timecards record operative, check-in time, check-out time, and hours worked. Each timecard becomes a Dynamics 365 Task or a custom Time Entry entity capturing the operative (as Owner), start/end timestamps, and hours. The Task is linked to the related Case representing the job performed.

Husky Intelligence

Route

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Custom Route Entity / Field Service Requirement

1:1
Fully supported

Husky Routes with sequence, vehicle, and distance data have no direct Dynamics 365 equivalent. We create a custom Route_Planning__c table in Dataverse to store route name, sequence order, vehicle ID, and total distance. Route stops are linked to Bookable Resource Bookings via a lookup.

Husky Intelligence

Service Agreement

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Contract / Custom Agreement Entity

1:1
Fully supported

Husky Service Agreements (recurring contracts) transfer as Dynamics 365 Contracts or a custom Agreement__c table if the contract terms include custom pricing rules. Agreement line items map to Contract Lines or Quote Details depending on the agreement type.

Husky Intelligence

Custom Property (Job)

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Custom Column on Case / Work Order

1:1
Fully supported

Husky custom properties added to Jobs are replicated as custom Dataverse columns on the corresponding Case or Work Order entity in Dynamics 365. We maintain the original data type (text, number, date, picklist), preserve pick-list value sets, and carry forward any validation constraints encoded in the Husky property definition. This ensures custom reporting logic built on these fields remains functional after cutover.

Husky Intelligence

Attachment / File

maps to

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

SharePoint / Dataverse Attachment

1:1
Fully supported

Husky file attachments on Jobs, Quotes, and Invoices are downloaded from the source system and re-uploaded to the corresponding Dynamics 365 record's associated SharePoint document location or as a Dataverse Note attachment. File associations are maintained so the attachment appears in the correct record's timeline. Microsoft SharePoint's 15 GB per document library storage applies, and the standard 32 MB per file limit is enforced for individual uploads.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Husky Jobs have no native Account or Contact parent — decomposition creates N Jobs per Account in Dynamics 365

    Husky Intelligence stores customer data directly on Job records rather than maintaining a separate customer file. When we migrate to Dynamics 365, every Job generates at least two Dataverse records: an Account (derived from the customer_name on the Job) and a Case (the Job itself). If the same customer appears across 50 Jobs, you will have one Account with 50 related Cases. This is structurally correct for a field-service model but creates a wider Account-to-Case ratio than a typical Dynamics 365 CRM migration. You should decide before migration whether to merge duplicate Accounts (by name + address) or accept one Account per Job as the fidelity-preserving option.

  • Custom properties in Husky exceeding 15 per entity trigger Sales Professional licensing constraints in Dynamics 365

    Husky allows unlimited custom properties per object. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Professional caps custom tables at 15 and custom columns per table at 500. If your Husky instance has more than 15 custom properties on Jobs, Quotes, or any entity you are migrating, you must either upgrade to Sales Enterprise (unlimited custom tables) or consolidate custom properties during migration. FlitStack surfaces the exact count of custom properties per entity before migration begins so your team can make the licensing decision proactively rather than mid-migration.

  • Husky schedule time slots require the Dynamics 365 Field Service app to map as native bookings

    Husky's drag-and-drop scheduler stores operative assignments and time windows on Job records. Dynamics 365 Sales does not have a native scheduling engine — this requires the Dynamics 365 Field Service app (Bookable Resources, Resource Crews, Requirements, and Bookings). If your team does not license Field Service, schedule data migrates as custom datetime fields on Cases, and operative assignments become Owner lookups. This is functional but not visually equivalent to Husky's scheduling board. We confirm your licensing intent before committing to the booking model.

  • Husky Routes and Service Agreements lack direct Dataverse equivalents and require custom tables

    Husky Routes (sequence, vehicle, distance) and Service Agreements (recurring contract terms with custom pricing) have no built-in Dynamics 365 entity. We create custom Dataverse tables — Route_Planning__c and Service_Agreement__c — to store this data with full fidelity. However, these custom tables do not activate Dynamics 365's native routing optimization engine, which requires the Field Service Resource Scheduling Optimization add-in. The custom table data is queryable and reportable via Power BI but not visible in the standard Dynamics schedule board.

  • Power Platform API request limits can throttle high-volume migration passes

    Dynamics 365 Sales uses Dataverse Web API with per-license request allocations (60,000 requests per user per 24 hours for Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise). A migration of 50,000+ Job records with associated Contacts, Accounts, Cases, Quotes, and Invoices can exceed request quotas during a bulk write pass. FlitStack AI paces API calls, implements exponential backoff on 429 responses, and distributes writes across off-peak hours. If your environment uses Power Automate flows heavily, those flows consume the same shared request budget — we coordinate with your tenant admin to schedule migration passes outside of peak flow activity.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Husky Intelligence to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales data migration

  1. Extract and inventory all Husky entities

    FlitStack AI connects to the Husky Intelligence API (or export files if the API is unavailable) and pulls every Job, Quote, Invoice, Timecard, Route, Site, Service Agreement, and custom property definition. We produce an inventory report listing record counts per entity, unique customer names, operative list, and a full enumeration of custom properties with their data types. This report drives the destination schema plan and the custom-table creation list for Dynamics 365.

  2. Design the Dynamics 365 target schema

    Based on the inventory, we design the target Dataverse schema: Account and Contact creation rules (deduplication strategy), Case or Work Order entity configuration, custom Route_Planning__c and Service_Agreement__c tables, and every custom column needed to capture Husky properties that have no native Dynamics 365 field. If the custom property count exceeds 15 on any entity, we flag the Sales Professional licensing constraint and recommend Enterprise before data writes begin.

  3. Match operatives to Dynamics 365 users by email

    Every Husky operative name is matched against active Dynamics 365 user records by email address. Matched operatives become Bookable Resources linked to their User record. Unmatched operatives are listed in a pre-migration exceptions report — your team either invites them to the Dynamics 365 tenant first or designates a fallback user owner. No Job, Timecard, or Route record migrates without a resolved owner, preventing orphaned scheduling data in Dynamics.

  4. Run a sample migration with field-level diff

    A representative slice of 100–500 records — spanning Jobs across different statuses, Quotes with line items, Invoices, Timecards, and Routes — migrates to a Dynamics 365 sandbox or the target production environment. We generate a field-level diff comparing every source field to its destination column, showing transformations applied, value mappings resolved, and any null or truncated fields. Your team reviews the diff and approves before the full migration commits.

  5. Execute full migration with delta-pickup window

    The full migration writes Accounts, Contacts, Cases, Quotes, Sales Orders, Timecard Tasks, and custom table records to Dynamics 365 in dependency order — Accounts first, then Contacts, then Cases. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours after the full run captures any Husky records created or modified during the cutover. Every operation is logged to an audit trail. If reconciliation identifies missing or misaligned records, one-click rollback reverts the target environment to its pre-migration state while your team continues working in Husky.
