Overview
MeasureSquare CRM is a flooring-industry platform that combines takeoff estimating, product price books, bid proposals, purchase orders, and installation scheduling. Salesforce Sales Cloud is a general-purpose CRM built on the Account-Contact-Opportunity-Contract data model with separate Pricebook2, Quote, and Order objects. The migration challenge is that MeasureSquare's project-centric records (takeoff projects, line-item estimates, vendor price requests) do not have native Salesforce equivalents and must be decomposed into Salesforce objects or preserved as custom fields and attachments. FlitStack AI reads MeasureSquare data via its REST Cloud API (JSON format, auth-token based), transforms project and product records into Salesforce Account, Contact, Opportunity, Product2, Quote, and custom object records, and maps vendor price-book entries to Salesforce Pricebook2 with custom fields for unit-cost tracking. Original create dates, last-modified timestamps, and owner email addresses are preserved in custom datetime and lookup fields. Automations, workflow rules, and sequence configurations in MeasureSquare do not migrate and must be rebuilt using Salesforce Flow or third-party tools. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any records created or modified in MeasureSquare during cutover before Salesforce goes live.
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 MeasureSquare 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.
MeasureSquare
Contact
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Contact
1:1MeasureSquare Contact records map 1:1 to Salesforce Contact records. The Contact's primary company link in MeasureSquare becomes Contact.AccountId lookup in Salesforce. Owner resolved by email match against Salesforce Users. When multiple MeasureSquare contacts share the same company, they collapse to a single AccountId link, with one contact designated as primary. All other contact fields (name, email, phone, title) migrate directly without transformation.
MeasureSquare
Company
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Account
1:1MeasureSquare Company records for vendors, manufacturers, and general contractors map to Salesforce Account records. Company type distinctions (vendor vs. customer) are preserved as Account.Type pick-list values during migration. Billing and shipping address fields from MeasureSquare map directly to Account.BillingAddress and Account.ShippingAddress. Website and phone number transfer without transformation.
MeasureSquare
Lead
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Lead
1:1MeasureSquare Sales Leads map directly to Salesforce Lead records. Lead source, status, and assigned team member carry over as standard or custom fields. If MeasureSquare tracked engagement scoring, Salesforce Lead scores require a custom Number field since standard Salesforce Lead scoring uses a different model based on Einstein Lead Scoring or third-party tools.
MeasureSquare
Project
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity
1:1MeasureSquare takeoff projects — the core entity linking floor plans, product selections, and bid amounts — translate to Salesforce Opportunities. The Opportunity Name pulls from Project.ProjectName, Amount from the estimate total, CloseDate from the target bid date, and StageName from the pipeline stage label. Project-level custom fields for jobsite address, measurement area (sq ft), and floor type migrate as custom Opportunity fields.
MeasureSquare
Pipeline Stage
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity Stage
1:1MeasureSquare pipeline stages (Pricing Request, Bid Sent, Won, Lost) map to Salesforce Opportunity Stage values. Each stage's probability and forecast category are re-applied based on the destination org's Sales Process configuration. Stage-entered timestamps are preserved as custom datetime fields on the Opportunity.
MeasureSquare
Product Database
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Product2
1:1MeasureSquare product catalogs with vendor SKUs, unit costs, markup percentages, and labor rates map to Salesforce Product2 records. A custom field Unit_Cost__c on Product2 stores the source unit cost for margin calculations. The product isActive flag is set based on whether the product is current in MeasureSquare.
MeasureSquare
Price Book Entry
Salesforce Sales Cloud
PricebookEntry
1:1MeasureSquare price book entries, which combine a product reference with vendor-specific pricing, map to Salesforce PricebookEntry records. Standard Pricebook2 is used unless the customer maintains separate vendor-specific price books, in which case custom Pricebook2 records are created per vendor with PricebookEntry records linking products to each vendor price book.
MeasureSquare
Quote / Bid Proposal
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Quote
1:1MeasureSquare bid proposals (including line items, totals, and proposal terms) map to Salesforce Quote records linked to the Opportunity. The quote PDF and any embedded floor plan diagrams are downloaded and re-uploaded as Salesforce Files attached to the Quote record. Line-item pricing is preserved via QuoteLineItem records matching Product2 and PricebookEntry.
MeasureSquare
Work Order
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Order
1:1MeasureSquare work orders with installer assignments, jobsite addresses, and production schedules map to Salesforce Order records. Order.Status maps from MeasureSquare work order status (Pending, Scheduled, In Progress, Completed). Installer crew assignments require a custom lookup or text field if Salesforce Field Service is not enabled.
MeasureSquare
Purchase Order
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Order
1:1MeasureSquare purchase orders linked to vendor price requests and product orders translate to Salesforce Order records with Order.Type set to 'Purchase Order'. The PO number maps to Order.OrderNumber for reference. The linked vendor Company record resolves to the Account lookup on the Order, maintaining the vendor relationship established in MeasureSquare.
MeasureSquare
Task
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Task
1:1MeasureSquare tasks assigned to team members, including follow-ups, site visits, and material requests, map directly to Salesforce Task records. Original assignees are resolved by matching their email address to Salesforce User records. Task status values (Open, Completed) map to Task.Status, and priority transfers directly without transformation.
MeasureSquare
Attachment / File
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Salesforce Files
1:1MeasureSquare file attachments — floor plan PDFs, takeoff diagrams, proposal documents, and site photos — are downloaded and re-uploaded to Salesforce Files linked to the parent record (Contact, Account, Opportunity, or Order). Salesforce's 25MB per-file limit is enforced during upload.
MeasureSquare
Custom Field (Project Level)
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Field on Opportunity
1:1MeasureSquare project-level custom properties — such as measurement area (sq ft), floor type, subfloor condition, seam allowance, and jobsite access notes — require Salesforce custom fields on the Opportunity object (e.g., Measurement_Area_SQFT__c, Floor_Type__c). Custom field creation is delivered as part of the migration schema plan before data loads.
MeasureSquare
Vendor Pricing Request
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Custom Object / Opportunity
1:1MeasureSquare's vendor pricing request workflow (Contractor Pro and Contractor Complete tiers) tracks inbound pricing from distributors. This data maps to a custom Vendor_Quote__c object or to Opportunity custom fields depending on the customer's vendor count. Pricing request status (Pending, Received, Expired) migrates as a custom pick-list field.
MeasureSquare
Change Order
Salesforce Sales Cloud
Opportunity or Custom Object
1:1MeasureSquare change order records from the Contractor Complete tier, which track scope changes mid-project, map to Salesforce Opportunity custom fields for change-order amount and reason. If the customer tracks multiple change orders per opportunity, a Change_Order__c custom object is created with a lookup to the parent Opportunity for one-to-many tracking of each modification.

Migration approach
Inventory MeasureSquare Cloud API objects and export project list
FlitStack connects to the MeasureSquare Cloud API using the customer's auth token to retrieve all accessible objects: Contacts, Companies, Leads, Projects, Product Databases, Price Books, Quotes, Work Orders, Purchase Orders, Tasks, and Attachments. We map the API response structure (JSON, paginated) to a source schema document, identify any custom fields configured in MeasureSquare CRM (Contractor Pro/Complete tiers), and flag records with missing required fields before mapping begins.
Design Salesforce custom field schema for project and product data
MeasureSquare project properties (floor type, measurement area, jobsite address) and product properties (vendor SKU, unit cost) have no Salesforce standard-field equivalents. FlitStack delivers a custom field specification document listing every required custom field on Opportunity, Product2, Quote, and Order objects, with data type, pick-list values, and validation rules. The Salesforce admin creates these fields in the sandbox before the sample migration runs.
Resolve owners by email and build user lookup table
MeasureSquare team members assigned as project owners, estimators, and sales reps are resolved against Salesforce Users by email address. FlitStack generates a user resolution report listing every matched and unmatched owner. Unmatched owners require either Salesforce User creation or assignment to a designated fallback User record before the migration commit. This step ensures every Opportunity and Order has a valid OwnerId at load time.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of 100–300 records spanning Contacts, Accounts, Opportunities, Product2 entries, Quotes, Orders, and Tasks migrates to the Salesforce sandbox environment first. FlitStack generates a comprehensive field-level diff comparing source values against Salesforce field values for every mapped field. You verify pipeline-stage mapping, product pricebook linkage, quote PDF attachment presence, and owner resolution accuracy before committing to the full production migration run.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
All MeasureSquare records load into the production Salesforce org in dependency order: Accounts first (foreign key for Contacts), then Contacts and Leads, then Product2 entries and Pricebook2 entries, then Opportunities linked to Pricebook2, then Quotes and QuoteLineItems, then Orders. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours after the full run captures any records created or modified in MeasureSquare during cutover. Audit log captures every insert, update, and attachment upload. One-click rollback reverts the org to pre-migration state if reconciliation fails.
