Overview

What this migration involves

Jobsite Mobile organizes field-service data around Workers, Jobs, Companies, and Assignments. Salesforce Sales Cloud models the same information using Contact, Account, custom Job__c or WorkOrder objects, and Assignment__c junction records. The migration carries all native Jobsite Mobile records into Salesforce, translating Workers to Contacts (or Leads for inactive staff), Companies to Accounts with full address hierarchies, and Jobs to a custom Work_Order__c object that your admin pre-creates with the required RecordTypeId and page layout assignments. We preserve original create dates as custom datetime fields since Salesforce's CreatedDate reflects migration time. Custom fields migrate as __c fields on their respective objects, with pick-list value mappings applied per Salesforce pick-list constraints. Assignment records become Salesforce Task or custom Assignment__c objects with parent links to both the Worker (Contact) and the Job (Work_Order__c). FlitStack uses Jobsite Mobile's REST API for export and Salesforce Bulk API 2.0 for ingestion, running a sample migration with field-level diff before the full cutover. Delta-pickup window captures any in-flight assignments during the switchover. Workflows, automations, and scheduling rules in Jobsite Mobile do not migrate — those must be rebuilt in Salesforce Flow or external scheduling tools.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

Jobsite Mobile

What's pushing teams away

  • Per-user pricing scales poorly for large field teams — companies with many part-time or seasonal technicians report being priced out as headcount grows.
  • The platform lacks a public API documentation or developer portal, making integrations with accounting software or custom dashboards difficult to maintain.
  • Reporting capabilities are limited to basic summaries; advanced analytics, custom dashboards, and data exports require workarounds or third-party add-ons.
  • Some users report that the web interface is significantly slower than the mobile app, making office-side administration cumbersome.

Choosing

Salesforce Sales Cloud logo

Salesforce Sales Cloud

What's pulling them in

  • The AppExchange marketplace with 5,000+ prebuilt apps gives enterprises integrations for nearly every business workflow without custom development.
  • Native Einstein AI for lead scoring, opportunity insights, and predictive forecasting adds intelligence without a separate platform purchase.
  • Territory management, multi-currency support, and advanced forecasting satisfy the needs of complex B2B sales organizations with structured revenue teams.
  • Slack, Tableau, and CPQ are deeply integrated into the core platform, keeping the sales stack unified for teams already in the Salesforce ecosystem.
  • Organizations with a large, established Salesforce implementation choose it because switching costs — integrations, custom code, trained admins — are prohibitive.

Object mapping

How Jobsite Mobile objects map to Salesforce Sales Cloud

Each row shows how a Jobsite Mobile 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.

Jobsite Mobile

Worker

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile worker records map directly to Salesforce Contact. Active workers land as Contacts with an IsActive__c custom flag; inactive workers may be mapped to Lead based on your specified rule. Salesforce requires AccountId for most Contact queries — workers without a primary company get assigned to a default 'Unassigned' Account record.

Jobsite Mobile

Worker

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

User

1:1
Fully supported

Only Jobsite Mobile workers with an active Salesforce User license and profile get mapped to User records. Owner resolution happens by email match. Workers without a matching Salesforce user are flagged pre-migration — your team invites them to Salesforce or assigns them to a fallback User as OwnerId.

Jobsite Mobile

Company

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Account

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile company records map to Salesforce Account. Parent-company hierarchies in Jobsite Mobile migrate to Salesforce ParentId on Account. Multi-location companies get one Account with multiple Address records (via the Salesforce Address object) or custom address fields per location. We also map the primary billing and shipping addresses to standard Account fields, and any additional custom address properties are added as custom fields on Account for complete coverage.

Jobsite Mobile

Job

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Custom Object (Work_Order__c)

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile job records require a custom Work_Order__c object in Salesforce since Salesforce Sales Cloud has no native work-order object. Your admin creates Work_Order__c with RecordTypeId per job type before migration. Job status maps to a custom Status__c pick-list field; stage/probability are not applicable to work-order records unless you are mapping Jobs to Opportunities.

Jobsite Mobile

Job Status

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Work_Order__c.Status__c

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile job status values (Open, In Progress, Completed, Cancelled, On Hold) map to custom pick-list values on Work_Order__c.Status__c. Each value requires a corresponding pick-list entry in Salesforce — we generate the value map during the discovery phase. During the mapping, we also verify that each status maps to the appropriate RecordTypeId, ensuring that status visibility aligns with job type in Salesforce.

Jobsite Mobile

Assignment

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Assignment__c (Junction Object)

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile worker-to-job assignments require a custom junction object (Assignment__c) with lookup fields to Contact (Worker) and Work_Order__c (Job). This preserves the many-to-many relationship that Jobsite Mobile natively supports. Assignment records carry Scheduled_Start__c and Scheduled_End__c datetime fields migrated from Jobsite Mobile's scheduling slots.

Jobsite Mobile

Assignment

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Task

1:1
Fully supported

Alternatively, FlitStack can map Jobsite Mobile assignments to Salesforce Task records linked to the Work_Order__c. This uses Salesforce's built-in TaskWhatId and TaskWhoId fields, simplifying reporting but losing some custom assignment metadata. Your team chooses the model during scoping. If you select the Task model, any custom fields on the Assignment__c object that are not native to Task will be omitted, so we recommend documenting those fields early in scoping.

Jobsite Mobile

Job Attachments

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Salesforce Files

1:1
Fully supported

Files attached to Jobsite Mobile job records (photos, signed forms, inspection reports) re-upload to Salesforce Files linked to the Work_Order__c record. Salesforce Files respect the 25MB per-file limit. Inline images in notes are extracted and rehosted as Salesforce Files with ContentDocument links.

Jobsite Mobile

Job Notes

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Note / ContentNote

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile job notes migrate to Salesforce Notes (legacy Note object) or ContentNote (Lightning-ready rich-text notes). Original timestamps and author references are preserved in Salesforce's CreatedDate and CreatedById fields, with the original note text stored in Body or Content fields respectively.

Jobsite Mobile

Custom Fields (Worker)

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Contact Custom Fields (__c)

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile custom properties on Worker records (certification type, employment status, skills list) migrate as custom fields on Salesforce Contact with __c suffix. Multi-select pick-list values in Jobsite Mobile map to Salesforce multi-select pick-list fields. Your admin pre-creates these fields before the migration loads records.

Jobsite Mobile

Custom Fields (Job)

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Work_Order__c Custom Fields (__c)

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile custom properties on Job records (job type, trade category, billing code, estimated duration) migrate to custom fields on Work_Order__c. Pick-list value sets need to be created in Salesforce first — FlitStack generates the pick-list value map during the field-mapping phase and your admin creates the values in Setup.

Jobsite Mobile

Workflow / Automation

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Not Migrated

1:1
Fully supported

Jobsite Mobile workflow rules, triggers, and scheduling automations do not migrate to Salesforce. Salesforce Flow must be built separately to replicate the logic. FlitStack exports Jobsite Mobile workflow definitions as a structured document your Salesforce admin or FlitStack's automation team can use as a rebuild reference.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Jobsite Mobile's job-type flat model collides with Salesforce's RecordTypeId scoping

    Jobsite Mobile stores all job types in a single object with status and type as simple pick-list fields. Salesforce scopes pick-list values per RecordTypeId — meaning Work_Order__c.Status__c values differ by record type. If your Jobsite Mobile setup has more than two job types with overlapping status names (e.g., 'Quote' appearing for both installation and repair jobs), you need separate Salesforce record types and page layouts. FlitStack delivers a record-type and page-layout setup plan as part of the migration so your Salesforce admin pre-creates the schema before data lands.

  • Jobsite Mobile scheduling board has no native Salesforce equivalent

    Jobsite Mobile's visual scheduling board is a core feature with time-slot assignment, worker availability, and conflict detection built in. Salesforce Sales Cloud has no native scheduling board — work-order scheduling data (Scheduled_Start__c, Scheduled_End__c, assigned worker) migrates as custom datetime and lookup fields, but the visual drag-and-drop board must be rebuilt using Salesforce Field Service, Salesforce Scheduler, or a third-party scheduling tool. FlitStack exports Jobsite Mobile's scheduling configuration as a rebuild reference document.

  • Assignment many-to-many relationships require junction-object construction in Salesforce

    Jobsite Mobile natively supports many-to-many worker-to-job assignments where a single job can have multiple assigned workers and a single worker can appear on multiple jobs. Salesforce Contact-to-Work_Order__c is a many-to-one relationship by default. We create a custom Assignment__c junction object with lookups to both Contact (Worker) and Work_Order__c (Job), preserving the assignment history including scheduling dates. This is a pre-migration custom field creation step your admin must complete. FlitStack will generate the API names and field types for lookups, and your admin creates them in Salesforce Setup before the migration runs. This ensures all assignment records load without null lookups and that reporting on worker utilization is correct from go-live.

  • Jobsite Mobile worker records without matching Salesforce users block OwnerId assignment

    Jobsite Mobile worker records that do not have a corresponding email in Salesforce cannot auto-resolve to a User — FlitStack flags these before migration runs and your team must either invite the worker to Salesforce (creating a User record) or designate a fallback User to own orphaned records. Unresolved OwnerId links cause the migration job to fail validation. If a worker lacks an email, FlitStack creates a User record and sets the OwnerId after your admin activates it. This prevents null OwnerId errors during Bulk API 2.0 ingestion, but finalize User invitations before the migration window to avoid loads. FlitStack supplies a report listing each unmatched email with resolution steps.

  • Jobsite Mobile custom fields with multi-select pick-lists need Salesforce multi-select fields

    Jobsite Mobile's custom properties can include multi-value fields (e.g., a 'Skills' field where a worker has multiple certifications selected). Salesforce multi-select pick-list fields store values as semicolon-separated strings. FlitStack maps these correctly, but your admin must create the Salesforce field as a multi-select pick-list type (not a standard pick-list) before migration — a mismatch requires a re-run of the affected records after the field type is corrected in Salesforce Setup.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Jobsite Mobile to Salesforce Sales Cloud data migration

  1. Audit Jobsite Mobile data model and export API schema

    FlitStack connects to Jobsite Mobile's API using your provided credentials and inventories all objects (Worker, Company, Job, Assignment), custom field definitions, and pick-list value sets. We document the relationship cardinalities and flag objects that require junction-object construction. This audit generates the migration scope document that drives field mapping decisions and custom field creation instructions for your Salesforce admin. The scope also includes data‑volume estimates, API rate‑limit considerations, and initial data‑quality checks to identify missing required fields before field mapping.

  2. Create Salesforce custom objects, fields, and record types

    Based on the scope document, your Salesforce admin (or FlitStack if you have admin access) creates the Work_Order__c custom object, Assignment__c junction object, and all custom fields with the correct types (pick-list, multi-select, datetime, lookup). Record types are created per Jobsite Mobile job type so that pick-list values scope correctly. This step must complete before any data loads because Salesforce requires fields to exist before records can reference them via Bulk API.

  3. Resolve owner and worker identity by email match

    FlitStack queries Salesforce for active Users and matches them against Jobsite Mobile worker email addresses. Workers with no matching Salesforce User are listed in a pre-migration report — your team resolves these by inviting workers to Salesforce or assigning a fallback User. No Work_Order__c or Assignment__c record migrates with an unresolved OwnerId. Companies map to Accounts using domain-based matching where available, with fuzzy matching on name for disambiguation.

  4. Run sample migration with field-level diff

    A representative slice of records — typically 100–500 covering a cross-section of workers, companies, jobs, and assignments — migrates first. FlitStack generates a field-level diff comparing source values against destination field contents so you can verify pick-list value mapping, datetime preservation, and lookup resolution before the full run commits. You approve the sample before we proceed to full migration. The diff also validates that RecordTypeId assignments align with job-type mappings and that custom field types match the source data.

  5. Execute full migration with delta-pickup window

    Full data migration runs against Salesforce using Bulk API 2.0 for high-volume record ingestion. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) opens after the initial load to capture any Jobsite Mobile records modified or created during the cutover period. FlitStack logs every operation in an audit trail. If reconciliation fails, one-click rollback reverts the Salesforce org to its pre-migration state so you can investigate and re-run.

  6. Deliver workflow export for Salesforce Flow rebuild

    FlitStack exports Jobsite Mobile workflow definitions, automation triggers, and scheduling rule configurations as a structured reference document your Salesforce admin or FlitStack's automation team uses to rebuild equivalent logic in Salesforce Flow. This export includes trigger conditions, action sequences, and field-update rules in a format that maps directly to Flow builder elements. The document also provides a mapping of Jobsite Mobile field names to Salesforce field API names, enabling precise translation of each rule's criteria.
