Overview
Teams migrate from improveit 360 to Dynamics 365 Sales when their home improvement operations outgrow single-platform functionality, seeking deeper Microsoft 365 integration, multi-entity support, and unified ERP connectivity. The migration carries improveit 360's core CRM objects — leads, contacts, accounts, opportunities, quotes, appointments, tasks, and activities — into Dynamics 365 Sales via the Dataverse API. Custom fields for project phases, contract types, and job costing data migrate as custom fields on Account and Opportunity records, which your admin creates in the target environment before the migration runs. improveit 360's sales quoting data converts to Dynamics 365 Quote records with line items preserved as Quote Products. Appointment scheduling translates to Dynamics 365 activities. Owner resolution matches improveit 360 user emails to Dynamics 365 users by email address; unmatched owners are flagged before the migration commits any records. improveit 360 workflows, sequences, and automations do not migrate — they are platform-specific constructs that require rebuilding using Dynamics 365 workflow rules or Power Automate. Construction-specific data like project phases, job costing amounts, and contract types require custom field creation and validation in Dynamics 365 before data lands.
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 improveit 360 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.
improveit 360
Lead
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Lead
1:1Improveit 360 leads map directly to Dynamics 365 Sales leads. Lead status values (New, Working, Qualified, Unqualified) map via value mapping to Dynamics Lead Status pick-list. Lead source values transfer via value mapping to the Lead Source field. Email, phone, and address fields map directly.
improveit 360
Contact
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Contact
1:1Improveit 360 contacts map directly to Dynamics 365 Sales contacts. Name fields, email, phone, job title, and address map 1:1. Contact-company associations preserve the primary company link. Additional company associations are preserved as Account Contact Relationships in Dynamics 365, ensuring all relevant organizational affiliations transfer over correctly.
improveit 360
Company
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Account
1:1Improveit 360 companies map to Dynamics 365 Sales accounts. Company name becomes Account Name. Domain/website maps to Website. Industry, employee count, and annual revenue map via value mapping or direct assignment. Parent-child company hierarchies preserve via the Parent Account lookup field.
improveit 360
Opportunity
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Opportunity
1:1Improveit 360 opportunities map to Dynamics 365 Sales opportunities. Opportunity name becomes the Opportunity Name. Stage values map via value mapping per pipeline. Amount and close date map directly. Custom fields for contract type and phase migrate as custom fields on the Opportunity record.
improveit 360
Quote
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Quote + Quote Product
1:1Improveit 360 quote header data (quote number, description, total amount, status) maps to Dynamics 365 Quote. Quote line items transform from Improveit 360's itemized structure to Dynamics Quote Product rows linked via the Quote ID. Quote-to-Order conversion requires post-migration review in Dynamics.
improveit 360
Appointment
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Appointment (Activity)
1:1Improveit 360 appointment records (subject, scheduled date/time, status, location, duration) map to Dynamics 365 Appointment records. Parent record links to the related Contact or Opportunity are preserved to maintain contextual relationship. Owner resolution by email match ensures the correct Dynamics user is assigned to each appointment activity.
improveit 360
Task
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Task (Activity)
1:1Improveit 360 task records map to Dynamics 365 Sales task activities. Subject, description, due date, priority, and status transfer directly. Task assignments resolve to Dynamics users via email matching. Completed task history and open tasks both migrate with their original timestamps, ensuring complete audit trails are preserved in Dynamics 365.
improveit 360
Note
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Note
1:1Improveit 360 notes (title, body text, created date, owner) map to Dynamics 365 Sales note records. Rich-text formatting in note bodies preserves where possible. Notes link to their parent Contact, Account, or Opportunity record using the Regarding lookup, maintaining full contextual attachment to the relevant business records.
improveit 360
Attachment / File
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Attachment (Note Attachment)
1:1Improveit 360 file attachments on records re-upload to Dynamics 365 Sales as note attachments. Files download from Improveit 360 storage and upload to the relevant Contact, Account, or Opportunity note. File size limits per Dynamics storage apply (default 128MB per file).
improveit 360
Project (custom construction data)
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Custom fields on Account / Opportunity
1:1Improveit 360 project-phase data, contract types, and job costing amounts do not have native equivalents in Dynamics 365 Sales. These migrate as custom fields (e.g., new_ProjectPhase, new_ContractType, new_JobCostingBudget, new_JobCostingActual) on the Account or Opportunity record based on context. Admin creates these before migration.
improveit 360
Owner / User
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Owner (User lookup)
1:1Improveit 360 owner IDs resolve by email address match against Dynamics 365 Sales user records. Matched users link via the OwnerId lookup. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration — your team either invites them to Dynamics 365 first or assigns their records to a fallback owner. No record lands without a valid owner.

Migration approach
Validate Dynamics 365 Sales schema before migration
Before any data moves, your Dynamics 365 admin (or our team) creates the custom fields, pick-list values, and form layouts needed for Improveit 360 data. We deliver a pre-migration schema setup plan that specifies exactly which custom fields to create (new_ProjectPhase, new_ContractType, new_JobCostingBudget, new_JobCostingActual), their types, and which entities they belong to. The schema must be validated and published in Dynamics 365 before field-level mapping and test migration runs.
Resolve Improveit 360 owners to Dynamics 365 users
We match Improveit 360 owner records to Dynamics 365 Sales users by email address. All matched owners receive valid OwnerId lookups on migrated records. Owners with no matching Dynamics user are flagged with a pre-migration report — your team either invites them to Dynamics 365 first or assigns their records to a designated fallback owner. No record commits to Dynamics without a valid owner assignment.
Migrate accounts before contacts, opportunities, and quotes
Dynamics 365 Sales requires parent Account records before Contact records (via the parentcustomerid lookup) and before Opportunity records (via the customerid lookup). We sequence the migration so Account records land first, then Contacts and Leads, then Opportunities and Quotes. Quote line items are transformed and loaded after their parent Quote records. This foreign-key ordering ensures referential integrity from the first record committed.
Run a sample migration with field-level validation
A representative slice of records migrates first — typically 100–500 records covering leads, contacts, accounts, opportunities, quotes, and a sample of activities. We generate a field-level diff between Improveit 360 and Dynamics 365 so you can verify custom field mapping (project phases, contract types, job costing), quote line-item transformation, owner resolution, and appointment scheduling translation before the full run commits.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full migration runs against Dynamics 365 Sales via the Dataverse API. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any records created or modified in Improveit 360 during the cutover. All operations are logged to an audit trail, and one-click rollback is available if reconciliation identifies record count or field-level discrepancies post-migration. Reports and dashboards do not migrate — those are rebuilt separately in Dynamics 365 reporting tools.
