Overview
Moving from OplaCRM to Twenty CRM is a structural migration that trades a regionally scoped, gamification-forward CRM for a self-hosted, open-source platform with a modern data model and transparent development roadmap. OplaCRM's Account-centric model maps cleanly to Twenty's Company and Person records; its Opportunities map to Twenty Opportunities with stage names remapped by display label. The healthscore — a composite relationship signal that OplaCRM does not document the algorithm for — migrates as a numeric custom field so teams can continue using it as a reference metric without recreating the algorithm. Opportunity Joint UUIDs (OplaCRM's linked-opportunity pattern) resolve into explicit linked-opportunity records in Twenty where the feature is available, or surface as a custom property for manual review. Gamification streaks, leaderboards, and goals do not migrate because they are behavioral state rather than transactional data. We do not migrate OplaCRM automations or sequences as code; we deliver a written inventory of every active rule for the customer's admin to rebuild in Twenty.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a OplaCRM object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
OplaCRM
Account
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1OplaCRM Accounts map directly to Twenty CRM Companies. The Account name maps to Company name; address fields map to the standard address compound in Twenty. We use the OplaCRM external_id as a reference field during import for deduplication. If OplaCRM Accounts have no external_id, we generate a deterministic hash from the account name and address for matching.
OplaCRM
Contact
Twenty CRM
Person
1:1OplaCRM Contacts map to Twenty CRM Person records. We deduplicate by email address and resolve the contact-to-account link by matching the OplaCRM account external_id to the Twenty Company record created in the preceding phase. Role fields map to a custom text field in Twenty if no native role equivalent exists on Person.
OplaCRM
Opportunity
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1OplaCRM Opportunities map to Twenty Opportunities. The sale_process_stage field (stored as a string enum) maps by display label rather than internal enum to ensure CLOSE_WON and CLOSE_LOST land in the correct terminal stage in Twenty. Close date, close reason, and win/loss status migrate directly. Stage probability percentages do not transfer automatically — we surface the original stage probabilities in a custom field so the customer can configure Twenty stage probabilities post-migration.
OplaCRM
Product
Twenty CRM
Product
1:1OplaCRM Products map to Twenty Products. Product name and SKU migrate directly; pricing is reviewed during scoping because OplaCRM's list-price model may differ from Twenty's price book structure. We create Standard Price Book entries in Twenty during the product phase if the source includes pricing data.
OplaCRM
Invoice
Twenty CRM
Custom (Invoice object via API)
1:1OplaCRM Invoices (created via CreateOpportunityInvoiceDto) map to a custom Invoice object in Twenty CRM. We map invoice amount, date, and status. Invoice numbering schemes do not auto-sync between systems — we prefix migrated invoice numbers with 'opla_' during import and flag a remapping step in the pre-flight review so the customer's admin can assign the correct numbering prefix before go-live.
OplaCRM
Healthscore
Twenty CRM
Custom numeric field on Company
lossyThe OplaCRM healthscore is a composite numeric value per account with no documented algorithm. We preserve the current value as a custom numeric field on the Twenty Company record (e.g., opla_healthscore__c). Teams should treat this as a reference metric — the underlying signal components (activity frequency, engagement signals, deal velocity) do not migrate because they are behavioral inputs, not stored values. A separate scoping session covers whether to rebuild healthscore logic as a calculated field in Twenty.
OplaCRM
Opportunity Joint (opportunities_joint_id)
Twenty CRM
Linked Opportunity
1:1OplaCRM links joint or co-selling Opportunities using a UUID field (opportunities_joint_id) that is not a standard linked-opportunity pattern. We resolve each UUID by querying the related Opportunity record in OplaCRM's export, then write an explicit linked-opportunity relationship in Twenty if the destination version supports it natively. If the destination Twenty instance does not yet expose a linked-opportunities UI, we create a custom text field (opla_joint_opportunity_id__c) on each linked Opportunity and surface the full mapping table in the post-migration handoff for manual relationship recreation.
OplaCRM
Locked Record
Twenty CRM
Custom restricted flag
lossyThe 'locked' boolean on OplaCRM records prevents editing in the source system. We replicate this flag as a custom boolean field (opla_locked__c) on the relevant Twenty object. Twenty's field-level permissions (introduced in version 1.4.0) allow the admin to restrict edit access on records where this flag is true. We flag locked records in the pre-flight reconciliation report so the customer can review before the permission is applied.
OplaCRM
Custom Fields
Twenty CRM
Custom Fields
lossyOplaCRM Custom Fields are stored as CustomFieldValueDto key-value pairs per record. We preserve all pairs as custom fields in Twenty. Field names that collide with existing Twenty properties are prefixed with 'opla_' and surfaced in the mapping table for the customer to rename before final cutover. Custom field types map to their nearest Twenty equivalents: text fields, numbers, dates, and checkboxes map directly; multi-select values split into individual entries or map to a Twenty multi-select field if available.
OplaCRM
Tag / Label
Twenty CRM
Tag
1:1OplaCRM Tags stored as label arrays on records migrate to Twenty Tags. Comma-delimited tag strings in custom fields are split into individual tag entries during transform. Tags that cannot be represented as Twenty native tags are written to a custom text field (opla_tags__c) on the parent object.
OplaCRM
User / Owner
Twenty CRM
Workspace User
1:1OplaCRM Users (owners) map to Twenty Workspace User records by email address match. Any OplaCRM Owner without a matching email in the Twenty workspace is held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes. Owner assignments on Opportunities and Contacts resolve through this User mapping.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
OplaCRM gotchas
Opportunity Joint UUIDs require explicit resolution
Locked records need explicit permission remapping
Custom Fields stored as arbitrary key-value pairs may need normalization
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and scoping
We audit the OplaCRM tenant across Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities, Products, Invoices, custom fields, locked records, opportunity joint UUIDs, and engagement history volume. We pair this with an assessment of the target Twenty CRM instance: self-hosted VPS version and version number, workspace user accounts, existing Company and Opportunity schemas, and any installed custom fields. The discovery output is a written migration scope, a pre-flight data quality report identifying duplicates and missing required fields, and a Twenty version-specific configuration plan.
Schema design and custom field provisioning
We design the destination schema in Twenty CRM. This includes creating custom fields for the healthscore (opla_healthscore__c), locked-record flag (opla_locked__c), joint-opportunity reference (opla_joint_opportunity_id__c), and any colliding OplaCRM custom field names prefixed with 'opla_'. We configure field-level permissions for the locked-record field if the Twenty instance version supports it. Pipeline stages are mapped by display label rather than internal enum to ensure CLOSE_WON and CLOSE_LOST land in the correct terminal stage. Schema is validated in a staging Twenty environment before production migration begins.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a staging Twenty instance (a second VPS or the same self-hosted instance with a test workspace) using production-like data volume. The customer's admin reconciles record counts (Accounts into Companies, Contacts into Persons, Opportunities, Products, Invoices), spot-checks 20-30 records against the OplaCRM source, and reviews the healthscore, locked-record, and joint-opportunity mappings. Any mapping corrections — renamed fields, stage re-mapping, invoice number prefix adjustments — happen in this phase. Sign-off on the sandbox reconciliation gates production migration.
Owner reconciliation and workspace user provisioning
We extract every distinct OplaCRM Owner referenced on Account, Contact, Opportunity, and engagement records and match by email against the Twenty workspace user list. Owners without a matching Twenty user go to a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import resumes. This step is required before record import because OwnerId references are needed on Opportunity and engagement records in Twenty.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies (from OplaCRM Accounts), Persons (with Company external_id resolved), Opportunities (with Company and Owner references resolved, stage names remapped by display label), Products and custom price entries, Invoices (with Opportunity references resolved), healthscore values written to the opla_healthscore__c custom field on each Company, locked-record flags written to opla_locked__c, joint-opportunity UUIDs resolved and written as linked-opportunity records or custom field references, Tags (split from comma-delimited strings into individual entries), and activity history (Tasks, Events, Notes via Twenty's REST or GraphQL API with batch chunking). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze OplaCRM writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Twenty CRM as the system of record. We deliver the OplaCRM automation and gamification inventory document — a written list of every active rule, streak configuration, goal setting, and sequence in OplaCRM — with a recommended Twenty equivalent for each. We support a five-day hypercare window where we resolve any data reconciliation issues raised by the team. We do not rebuild OplaCRM automations or gamification as Twenty features inside the migration scope; those are separate configuration tasks for the customer's admin.
