Overview
Notifi is a field-service and home-services platform built around a job-work-order model: contacts, companies, deals, and activities are all organized in relation to jobs. Freshsales is an AI-powered sales CRM built around Leads, Contacts, Accounts, and Opportunities with Freddy AI scoring. These fundamentally different mental models mean this migration is less a straight record transfer and more a schema re-architecture. FlitStack AI extracts Notifi data via its API (contacts, companies, deals, tasks, estimates, custom fields, attachments) and transforms it into Freshsales native objects. Job-level scheduling data becomes Events with original start/end times. Estimates and invoices map to Freshsales Opportunity Products or custom quote fields. Custom fields use Freshsales's custom_field.{id} convention. Owner resolution happens by email match against Freshsales users. We do not migrate Notifi workflows, automations, or job-routing rules — those must be rebuilt in Freshsales's Workflows, Sequences, and territory management. Reports and dashboards are not migrated. The migration runs against a scoped read-only Notifi connection so your team keeps working during cutover, with a 24–48 hour delta pickup window capturing in-flight changes before go-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 Notifi object lands in Freshsales, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Notifi
Contact
Freshsales
Contact
1:1Notifi contacts with a primary company map directly to Freshsales Contacts with AccountId set to the matched Account. Notifi contacts without a company attach to a placeholder Account or route to Freshsales Leads based on lifecycle status — your team decides the split rule before migration runs.
Notifi
Contact (with no associated job)
Freshsales
Lead
1:manyNotifi contacts that have never been associated with a job record route to Freshsales Leads rather than Contacts. This preserves the prospect-vs-customer distinction Freshsales uses natively. All other Notifi contacts land as Freshsales Contacts linked to Accounts.
Notifi
Company
Freshsales
Account
1:1Notifi company records map 1:1 to Freshsales Accounts. Parent-child company hierarchies in Notifi map to Freshsales Parent Account relationships. Multi-location Notifi companies where each location is a separate company record become separate Freshsales Account records linked by a custom Parent_Group__c field.
Notifi
Deal
Freshsales
Opportunity
1:1Notifi deals map to Freshsales Opportunities. Deal pipeline names map to Freshsales Sales Pipelines, and deal stage names map to Opportunity Stage values. Probability values from Notifi apply to Freshsales Stage Probability fields. Close dates and amounts transfer directly.
Notifi
Estimate
Freshsales
Opportunity / Custom Quote Fields
1:1Notifi estimates have no native Freshsales equivalent. We map estimate line items to Opportunity Product records where Freshsales Products exist, or to custom number/currency fields on the Opportunity for non-product estimates. The original estimate number and status (draft, sent, accepted) are preserved in custom fields on the Opportunity.
Notifi
Invoice
Freshsales
Opportunity / Custom Fields
1:1Notifi invoices do not map to any native Freshsales object. Invoice records become custom fields on the associated Opportunity (Invoice_Number__c, Invoice_Date__c, Invoice_Status__c, Invoice_Amount__c). The invoice PDF is downloaded and re-uploaded as a Freshsales File attached to the Opportunity record.
Notifi
Call Activity
Freshsales
Task
1:1Notifi call logs map to Freshsales Tasks with Type='Call'. Original call duration, timestamp, owner, and parent record link are preserved. Call disposition notes from Notifi populate the Task Subject or Description field depending on length.
Notifi
Email Activity
Freshsales
Task
1:1Notifi emails map to Freshsales Tasks with Type='Email'. Subject line, body text, timestamp, and owner transfer directly. Rich-text email bodies are preserved in the Task Description field. Email attachments download and re-upload as Freshsales Files.
Notifi
SMS / Text Activity
Freshsales
Task / Custom Field
1:1Notifi text messages are a first-class record type in Notifi. Freshsales stores SMS history in custom fields (SMS_Body__c) on the Contact or as Tasks with Type='SMS' depending on Freshsales plan. All text content, timestamps, and direction (sent/received) transfer. Note that Freshsales SMS is Growth+ only — texts land as custom fields on lower plans.
Notifi
Job / Scheduling
Freshsales
Event
1:1Notifi job scheduling data maps to Freshsales Events. Job scheduled date/time becomes Event Start_DateTime, job end time becomes End_DateTime, and job description populates the Event Subject or Description. Technician assignment and GPS routing data from Notifi have no Freshsales equivalent — your admin rebuilds territory assignment rules in Freshsales territory management post-migration.
Notifi
Custom Field
Freshsales
Custom Field
1:1Notifi custom fields on any object map to Freshsales custom fields. Freshsales API stores these as custom_field.{id} keys — we create matching custom fields in Freshsales before migration, then map values by API field name. Custom field data types are matched to Freshsales supported types (text, number, date, picklist, checkbox, currency).
Notifi
User / Owner
Freshsales
User
1:1Notifi owner/User IDs resolve to Freshsales users by email address match. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration — your team either creates Freshsales user accounts for them first or reassigns their records to a fallback owner. No record migrates without a valid Freshsales OwnerId.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit Notifi data model and configure Freshsales schema
FlitStack AI reads your Notifi data model via API — identifying all object types, custom fields, and relationship structures. We cross-reference this against Freshsales native objects and create the required custom fields (Estimate_Number__c, Invoice_Status__c, Source_System_ID__c, etc.) in Freshsales before migration. Your admin approves the custom field plan and confirms which Notifi contacts should route to Leads vs Contacts based on job association history.
Resolve Notifi owners to Freshsales users by email
We match every Notifi owner/User record to a Freshsales user by email address. Unmatched owners are flagged in a pre-migration report — your team creates Freshsales user accounts for them or assigns their records to a designated fallback owner. No contact, company, deal, or activity migrates without a valid Freshsales OwnerId, preventing orphaned records in the destination.
Migrate accounts and companies before contacts
Freshsales requires Accounts before Contacts (via account_id) and Contacts before Opportunities (via contact-to-opportunity links). We sequence the migration: Notifi Companies → Freshsales Accounts, then Contacts/Leads split by job-association rule, then Deals → Opportunities with stage mapping, pipeline assignment, and estimate/invoice field population. This dependency chain ensures foreign keys resolve correctly in Freshsales and prevents relationship errors at load time.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice migrates first — typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, estimates, and a sample of activities. We generate a field-level diff between the Notifi source values and the Freshsales destination fields so you can verify estimate mapping, invoice field population, SMS custom field display, and owner resolution before the full run commits. You approve the sample before we proceed to full migration.
Cut over with delta-pickup window for in-flight records
The full migration runs against Freshsales with a scoped read-only Notifi connection. Your team continues working in Notifi during cutover. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any records created or modified in Notifi after the initial migration run — including new jobs, updated deal stages, and new contacts — and applies them to Freshsales before go-live. Audit log captures every operation, and one-click rollback is available if reconciliation uncovers data discrepancies at final verification.
