Overview
Moving from LeadMaster to Odoo CRM is an upgrade from a point-in-time SMB CRM into a modular open-source ERP ecosystem. LeadMaster uses a flat three-object model (Accounts, Leads, Opportunities) with bundled marketing automation, while Odoo separates Leads and Opportunities as distinct stages of a single crm.lead pipeline and offers ERP, accounting, project management, and helpdesk as optional integrated modules. We map LeadMaster Leads to Odoo crm.lead, LeadMaster Accounts to Odoo res.partner (with company_type set to company), and LeadMaster Opportunities to crm.lead with type = opportunity. Cases migrate to helpdesk.ticket. Workflows, Smart Queue filters, and marketing automation sequences do not migrate as executable logic; we deliver a written inventory of every configured workflow and automation for the customer to rebuild in Odoo's Studio or automated actions. Owner assignment resolves via email match against Odoo's res.users model, and custom form fields with no Odoo equivalent fall back to a structured ir.attachment note or a custom field created during schema setup.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a LeadMaster object lands in Odoo CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
LeadMaster
Lead
Odoo CRM
crm.lead
1:1LeadMaster Leads map to Odoo crm.lead with type set to lead. The LeadCenter export fields (contact_name, email_from, phone, lead_source, lifecycle status, owner) map to Odoo's name, email_from, phone, source_id, team_id, and user_id respectively. Smart Queue filter criteria that define sub-segments of leads are documented as Odoo sales team filters or domain expressions for the customer to reproduce in Odoo Views. Owner assignment resolves via email match against res.users before import begins.
LeadMaster
Account
Odoo CRM
res.partner
1:1LeadMaster Accounts map to Odoo res.partner with company_type set to company. The primary contact link from the LeadMaster Account becomes a child res.partner contact of type contact under the company partner. Standard address fields (street, city, state, zip, country) map directly. Custom fields on the LeadMaster Account that have no Odoo equivalent fall back to a custom res.partner field created during schema setup or stored as a structured note attachment.
LeadMaster
Opportunity
Odoo CRM
crm.lead (type = opportunity)
1:1LeadMaster Opportunities map to Odoo crm.lead with type set to opportunity and a linked partner_id from the mapped Account. Stage, amount (planned_revenue), close date (date_deadline), and owner migrate directly. Custom pipeline stages on the LeadMaster side map to Odoo crm.stage values configured per sales team before migration. The split between what was a Lead versus an Opportunity in LeadMaster is preserved through the type field in Odoo.
LeadMaster
Pipeline / Smart Queue
Odoo CRM
crm.team + crm.stage
lossyEach LeadMaster Smart Queue or pipeline filter becomes an Odoo sales team (crm.team) with its own crm.stage list. Stage names and probabilities migrate as Odoo stage records attached to the team. If LeadMaster had multiple named pipelines, each maps to a separate crm.team in Odoo with its own stage sequence. We configure this during schema setup before any crm.lead records are imported.
LeadMaster
Case
Odoo CRM
helpdesk.ticket
1:1LeadMaster Cases map to Odoo helpdesk.ticket if the Odoo Helpdesk app is active on the destination instance. Case number becomes ticket ticket_number or id; status, priority, and description map to stage_id, priority, and description respectively. The associated LeadMaster Account maps to the ticket's partner_id via res.partner lookup. Conversation threads attached to Cases migrate as message records on the helpdesk.ticket. If the Helpdesk app is not installed at migration time, Cases are held and the customer decides whether to install Helpdesk or skip Case migration.
LeadMaster
User / Owner
Odoo CRM
res.users
1:1LeadMaster user accounts, roles, and permission levels map to Odoo res.users by email match. Active/inactive status preserves. Any LeadMaster owner not found in Odoo's res.users table goes to a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes. OwnerId references on crm.lead, helpdesk.ticket, and ir.attachment cannot be resolved until this step is complete.
LeadMaster
Activity / Notes
Odoo CRM
mail.message + note
1:1Logged calls, emails, meetings, and tasks from LeadMaster migrate as Odoo mail.message records on the crm.lead or res.partner, with message_type set to email, call, meeting, or notification respectively. Notes with no parent engagement type migrate as Odoo Note records via mail.message with note_flag set. Activity dates and subject lines preserve ordering in the Odoo chatter timeline. Email body content migrates as mail.message HTML body; attachments on activities migrate as ir.attachment linked via mail.message.ids.
LeadMaster
Attachment
Odoo CRM
ir.attachment
1:1File attachments stored against leads, accounts, cases, or opportunities in LeadMaster export as binary blobs with filename and parent record reference. We re-upload them to Odoo ir.attachment linked to the mapped res.partner, crm.lead, or helpdesk.ticket via res_model and res_id. Large-volume attachment exports may require chunked upload handling due to Odoo attachment size limits (default 25 MB per file, configurable). LeadMaster stores files in Azure; we extract them via API before migration and re-upload to Odoo.
LeadMaster
Campaign
Odoo CRM
crm.tag or utm.campaign
lossyLeadMaster marketing campaigns are documented as utm.campaign records in Odoo if the Marketing app is installed, or as crm.tag records on crm.lead if only the CRM app is active. Campaign contact associations migrate as tag mappings on the lead record. Email campaign content (templates, subject lines) exports as HTML and is provided as a file package; the customer rebuilds the campaign automation in Odoo Automated Actions or the Marketing app post-migration.
LeadMaster
Custom Form
Odoo CRM
Custom res.partner field or ir.attachment
1:1LeadMaster custom form field definitions and their submitted response data are exported during discovery. Form responses stored as lead or account data map to custom res.partner or crm.lead fields if the destination Odoo field type is compatible (text, date, selection). For non-standard field structures with no Odoo equivalent, we fall back to a structured ir.attachment JSON file or a multi-line text field that preserves the form payload. The form layout itself must be replicated in Odoo Studio by the customer's admin post-migration.
LeadMaster
Workflow / Business Rules
Odoo CRM
Not migrated
1:1LeadMaster workflow automation (point-and-click rules for status updates, automated emails, calendar events, SMS, and record reassignment) has no export mechanism and cannot be migrated as executable logic. We document every active workflow during discovery with its trigger conditions, actions, and configured delays, and deliver a written inventory with recommended Odoo Automated Actions or Studio equivalents. The customer rebuilds these post-migration; this is a separate scope from the data migration.
LeadMaster
Landing Page
Odoo CRM
Not migrated
1:1LeadMaster landing pages (templates and form integrations) are documented during discovery with their field-to-lead routing logic. The page content exports as HTML, but the hosting and form-to-lead submission endpoint must be re-established in Odoo Website Builder or an external landing page tool post-migration. We provide a field-mapping table showing which Odoo form fields each LeadMaster landing page submitted to.

LeadMaster gotchas
Workflow logic does not survive migration
Tier-based contact limits can cause import overages
Pricing pages show conflicting tier structures
Email marketing module requires a Pro logon on lower tiers
Custom forms and their responses may have schema gaps
Odoo CRM gotchas
Odoo.sh version gating blocks assisted migrations from trial
Enterprise modules fail to install on Community after database restore
Custom module view inheritance breaks between Odoo major versions
Custom fields risk losing their application context on Community
API access for Community is gated behind the Custom Plan
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and scoping audit
We audit the LeadMaster instance across tier (Free/CRM-Xpress/Enterprise), active pipeline count, custom form field definitions, workflow configuration inventory, engagement and attachment volumes, and Case record count. We confirm the customer's actual LeadMaster plan tier from billing records since pricing page discrepancies exist across channels. We pair this with a destination Odoo edition review: Odoo Online (Odoo.sh cloud) vs on-premise, and which apps are active (CRM only, CRM + Helpdesk, CRM + Marketing). The discovery output is a written migration scope, object inventory, and a stage mapping table for every LeadMaster pipeline or Smart Queue filter to be re-created in Odoo crm.team and crm.stage.
Schema setup in Odoo destination
We pre-create the Odoo destination schema before any data import. This includes provisioning crm.team records (one per LeadMaster pipeline or Smart Queue), crm.stage records with correct sequence and probability per team, custom res.partner and crm.lead fields for any LeadMaster custom form fields without direct equivalents, and helpdesk.ticket stages if the Helpdesk app is active and Cases are in scope. Schema is configured in the Odoo destination directly via admin credentials or through a CSV import of stage and team definitions. We validate that the import user has Create/Write permissions on all target models before proceeding.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into the Odoo production instance using representative data volume from the source. The customer's Odoo admin reconciles record counts (Leads in, Opportunities in, Partners/Accounts in, Cases in if applicable), spot-checks 20-30 random records against the LeadMaster source for field-level accuracy, and validates that the crm.lead chatter timeline shows correct activity history. Any field mapping corrections, stage sequence adjustments, or custom field additions happen here before production migration begins. This step also surfaces any LeadMaster custom form fields that require Odoo field creation.
Owner reconciliation and user provisioning
We extract every distinct LeadMaster owner referenced on Lead, Account, Opportunity, and attachment records and match by email against the Odoo destination's res.users table. Owners without a matching Odoo user go to a reconciliation queue. The customer's Odoo admin provisions any missing users as active or inactive res.users records. Migration cannot proceed past this step because user_id and user_ids (sales team member) references on crm.lead require a valid res.users record to resolve.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: res.partner (Accounts from LeadMaster, with primary contact as child partner), crm.lead type=lead (Leads with owner resolved, stage assigned), crm.lead type=opportunity (Opportunities linked to partner_id and sales team), mail.message activity history (via Odoo XML-RPC with batch chunking), ir.attachment file imports (linked to parent crm.lead or res.partner), and helpdesk.ticket (Cases mapped to helpdesk.ticket if Helpdesk app is active). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. Workflow automation, Smart Queue filters, landing pages, and campaigns are not imported; they are documented and handed off for Odoo rebuild.
Cutover, validation, and workflow rebuild handoff
We freeze LeadMaster write access during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then mark Odoo as the system of record. We deliver the workflow and Smart Queue inventory document, the custom form field mapping table, and the landing page field routing table to the customer's Odoo admin. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve any record linkage issues or field mapping corrections raised by the customer's team. We do not rebuild LeadMaster workflows as Odoo Automated Actions inside the migration scope; that work is handled by the customer's Odoo admin or an Odoo implementation partner.
