Overview
improveit 360 is a CRM built on the Salesforce platform specifically for residential remodelers, replacement contractors, and specialty trades. It stores leads, companies, opportunities, and eLeads (incoming web leads), plus construction-specific data like project budgets, line-item estimates, appointment schedules, and custom properties. Because improveit 360 uses its own custom object prefixes and property naming on top of Salesforce, the migration to standard Salesforce Sales Cloud requires extracting those custom fields, mapping them to standard and custom Salesforce fields, and resolving the foreign-key relationships (AccountId on Contacts, OwnerId on Opportunities) that improveit 360 manages differently internally. Salesforce Sales Cloud brings standard objects — Account, Contact, Lead, Opportunity, Task, Event — alongside custom fields (suffix __c) and record types for varying page layouts per business unit. We map improveit 360's eLead records to Salesforce Leads where they qualify, and flag non-converting eLeads as a custom field for manual review. Project estimates and schedule data have no native Salesforce equivalent — those migrate to custom fields on Opportunity or a custom Project__c object. We use the Salesforce Bulk API and REST API for data insertion, with a delta-pickup window capturing any improveit 360 records modified during the cutover. Workflows, automations, and improveit 360's quoting tool (Sales Touch or built-in) do not migrate — we export their definitions as a reference for rebuilding in Salesforce Flow or CPQ.
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 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.
improveit 360
Lead
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead
1:1improveit 360 leads map directly to Salesforce Lead records. Fields including name, email, phone, company, lead status, and source are migrated as-is. Owner resolution happens by email match to Salesforce User records before insertion — unmatched owners are flagged and assigned to a fallback user.
improveit 360
eLead
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead (or Custom Flag Field)
1:1improveit 360 eLead records represent incoming web inquiries with routing status and source tracking. If an eLead has been worked (status 'Working' or later), it qualifies as a Salesforce Lead. Unworked eLeads that represent raw form submissions are flagged with a custom field for Salesforce admin triage rather than bulk-loading unqualified records.
improveit 360
Company
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1improveit 360 companies migrate to Salesforce Account records. The company name maps to Account.Name, domain to Website, industry to Industry (value-mapped), employee count to NumberOfEmployees, and annual revenue to AnnualRevenue. Parent-child company hierarchies use the Salesforce ParentId field. Address components (street, city, state, postal code, country) map to the corresponding BillingAddress fields on Account.
improveit 360
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact
1:1improveit 360 contacts map directly to Salesforce Contacts. All standard fields (name, email, phone, title, address components) are migrated. Because Salesforce requires Contact.AccountId, the parent Account must exist before Contacts are inserted — we sequence Accounts first in the migration run order.
improveit 360
Opportunity
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
1:1improveit 360 opportunities map to Salesforce Opportunity records. The deal name, amount, and close date are direct mappings. Pipeline-to-RecordTypeId mapping assigns each improveit 360 pipeline to a Salesforce Sales Process tied to a record type, and stage values are mapped value-by-value per record type with probability and forecast category reapplied.
improveit 360
Pipeline
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Sales Process + Record Type
1:1Each improveit 360 pipeline becomes a Salesforce Sales Process keyed by a record type. Pipeline stages map to Opportunity StageName values per record type. Teams with five improveit 360 pipelines end up with five Salesforce record types — each requiring its own page layout, field-level security, and profile assignment before data lands.
improveit 360
Project / Estimate
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Project__c Object (or Opportunity Custom Fields)
1:1improveit 360 stores project budgets, line-item estimates, and schedule dates as native fields. Salesforce Sales Cloud has no standard project object. We create a custom Project__c object with fields for estimated_budget__c, line_items__c, start_date__c, and completion_date__c, linked to the parent Opportunity via a lookup relationship.
improveit 360
Custom Properties
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Fields (__c) on Standard Objects
1:1improveit 360's custom fields (remodel_type__c, trade_category__c, coverage_area__c, etc.) migrate to Salesforce custom fields with __c suffix on the equivalent standard object. Field type is preserved — pick-lists become pick-lists, dates stay dates, numbers stay numbers. All custom fields are created in the target org before the migration run.
improveit 360
Appointment / Calendar
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Event
1:1improveit 360 appointment records (with scheduled date, time, assigned rep, and result status) map to Salesforce Event records. Original start/end times, owners, and the parent-record link to the related Contact or Opportunity are preserved. Appointment result notes migrate as Event description.
improveit 360
Call / Activity Log
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task
1:1improveit 360 call logs and activity records map to Salesforce Task records. The activity type (call, email, note) is stored in the Task.Type field. Original timestamps, owners, and subject lines are preserved, with the Task linked to the parent Contact, Lead, or Opportunity record.
improveit 360
Attachment / Document
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Salesforce Files
1:1Documents and attachments stored in improveit 360 are downloaded and re-uploaded as Salesforce Files (ContentDocument / ContentVersion). File size limits apply — Salesforce default caps at 25MB per file. Inline images embedded in notes are extracted and rehosted separately, and large files exceeding the limit are chunked or linked via external storage references to maintain document accessibility.
improveit 360
Quote / Estimate Document
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Field or CPQ Quote (Post-Migration)
1:1improveit 360 quote documents and line-item pricing tables have no direct Salesforce equivalent without CPQ. We preserve quote data as custom fields on Opportunity (quote_amount__c, quote_date__c, quote_valid_until__c) and export the line-item structure as JSON for rebuild in Salesforce CPQ by your admin after migration.

Migration approach
Audit improveit 360 data and deliver Salesforce schema plan
We connect to your improveit 360 instance via API and inventory all objects, custom properties, eLead records, and project entries. We cross-reference against your current Salesforce org to identify which improveit 360 custom fields have no Salesforce standard-field equivalent and require __c field creation. We deliver a schema setup checklist: every Salesforce custom field to create, every pick-list value to populate, every record type to configure for your pipelines, and the Project__c object definition. Your Salesforce admin creates these before we proceed to migration — the Salesforce side must be schema-ready before data validation begins.
Run user audit and resolve owner IDs by email match
Every improveit 360 owner (rep, admin, manager) must have a matching Salesforce User record with the same email address. We export the improveit 360 user list, query Salesforce for matching email addresses, and flag every improveit 360 owner without a Salesforce user. Your team either provisions Salesforce licenses for those users or designates a fallback owner (typically a Salesforce admin) to receive their records. No record is inserted without a valid Salesforce OwnerId — unresolved owners block the migration run.
Sequence migration: Accounts → Contacts/Leads → Opportunities → Projects → Activities
Salesforce requires Account records to exist before Contact.AccountId can be set, and Opportunity records before project lookups resolve. We run the migration in dependency order: first Accounts (imported with all company data and parent hierarchies), then Contacts (with AccountId links resolved) and Leads (with eLeads split into qualified and triage-flagged), then Opportunities (with RecordTypeId assigned per pipeline, StageName mapped per record type, and OwnerId resolved), then Project__c records (linked to parent Opportunity by OpportunityId lookup), then Activities (Tasks and Events linked to the parent Contact, Lead, or Opportunity). This sequence ensures no foreign-key failures during insertion.
Execute sample migration with field-level diff
Before the full run, we migrate a representative slice — typically 200–500 records across Leads, Contacts, Opportunities, eLeads, and a sample project record. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values against destination values so you can verify: eLead status routing is correct, pipeline-to-record-type assignment matches your Salesforce pipeline configuration, project data landed in the custom Project__c object, owner resolution shows the correct Salesforce user, and custom property values were inserted into __c fields. You sign off on the sample before the full migration commits.
Full migration run with delta-pickup window
The full migration runs against your Salesforce org using Bulk API for high-volume objects (Contacts, Leads, Opportunities) and REST API for records requiring immediate validation (eLeads, Projects). After the initial load completes, we open a delta-pickup window — typically 24–48 hours — during which any improveit 360 records created or modified during the cutover are captured and inserted into Salesforce. Every operation is logged in an audit record. If reconciliation fails, one-click rollback reverts the Salesforce org to its pre-migration state.
