Overview
Panacea is a veterinary practice management system that stores client owners, patient animals, appointment records, treatment histories, and billing invoices within a domain-specific data model built around the veterinary clinic workflow. Twenty CRM is an open-source CRM built on PostgreSQL with standard objects for People, Companies, Opportunities, Notes, and Tasks, plus full support for custom objects and custom fields created in Settings → Data Model. The migration challenge is threefold: Panacea's client-owner model (a person who owns one or more animal patients) must translate cleanly into Twenty's People-and-Companies object structure; Panacea's appointment and treatment logs must map to Twenty's Tasks and Notes with original timestamps and assigned veterinarian preserved; and Panacea's invoice and payment records — if migrated — require a custom object in Twenty since Twenty does not include native billing. FlitStack AI accesses Panacea via its read API using scoped credentials, extracts all standard and custom record types, applies field-level transformation, and loads into Twenty via the bulk CSV import or API upsert depending on record volume. Workflows, treatment protocols, and reminder templates from Panacea do not migrate — those must be rebuilt in Twenty's workflow builder using the exported definitions as a reference map.
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 Panacea 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.
Panacea
Client Owner
Twenty CRM
People
1:1Panacea's client owner (the person who brings an animal in for care) maps directly to Twenty's People object. The owner's name, email, phone, address, and contact preferences migrate as standard People fields. Panacea owners without a company affiliation land as standalone People records in Twenty.
Panacea
Patient Animal
Twenty CRM
Custom Object: Patient
1:1Panacea's patient animal has no direct Twenty CRM equivalent — Twenty's standard objects are People, Companies, and Opportunities. We create a custom Patient object in Twenty's Data Model with fields for species, breed, date of birth, weight, vaccination status, and medical history. The Patient object links to the owner via a relation field pointing back to the People record.
Panacea
Company (if applicable)
Twenty CRM
Companies
1:1Panacea client owners can be linked to a company (e.g., a farm for livestock clients, a breeding kennel, or a corporate pet-insurance partner). Where a Panacea owner has a company affiliation, that company migrates as a Twenty Companies record with name, domain, industry, and employee count fields populated from Panacea's business entity data.
Panacea
Appointment
Twenty CRM
Tasks
1:1Panacea appointment records (date, time, duration, type, assigned veterinarian) translate into Twenty Tasks. The task subject carries the appointment type and patient name; the scheduled date maps to the Task due date; the assigned veterinarian resolves to a Twenty Workspace Member by email match. Completed appointments carry the original completion timestamp as a custom field.
Panacea
Treatment / Clinical Note
Twenty CRM
Notes
1:1Panacea treatment records and clinical notes attach to the patient. We migrate these as Twenty Notes linked to the Patient custom object record. The original note timestamp, author (veterinarian), and note type (diagnosis, prescription, surgery) are preserved as Note metadata and custom fields. Rich-text formatting is retained where Panacea exports it.
Panacea
Invoice / Billing Record
Twenty CRM
Custom Object: Invoice
1:1Panacea invoice records do not have a native destination in Twenty's standard CRM model. We create a custom Invoice object in Twenty with fields for invoice number, date, total amount, amount paid, balance outstanding, payment status, and a relation to the People (client owner) record. Payment line items migrate as child records under the Invoice object where Twenty's data model supports that relationship.
Panacea
Vaccination Record
Twenty CRM
Custom Object: Vaccination
1:1Vaccination history attached to a patient animal migrates as a custom Vaccination object linked to the Patient record. Fields include vaccine name, date administered, due date for next dose, batch number, and administering veterinarian. This preserves the regulatory vaccination record independently from clinical notes.
Panacea
Document / Attachment
Twenty CRM
Files (linked to record)
1:1Panacea file attachments (lab results, consent forms, radiograph images, insurance documents) are downloaded from Panacea's storage and re-uploaded to Twenty Files, then linked to the appropriate Patient or People record by ID. File size limits apply — files exceeding Twenty's upload threshold are flagged for manual re-upload with a reference link to the source.
Panacea
Staff / Veterinarian
Twenty CRM
Workspace Members
1:1Panacea staff records (veterinarians, technicians, front-desk staff) map to Twenty Workspace Members. Email addresses serve as the unique matching key. During migration, each Panacea staff member's ID is stored as Source_System_ID__c on the corresponding Twenty Workspace Member so appointment assignments resolve correctly without creating duplicate users.
Panacea
Inventory / Product
Twenty CRM
Custom Object: Product
1:1Panacea product inventory used in treatments (medications, vaccines, retail items) migrates as a custom Product object in Twenty if the clinic wants to track supply usage alongside billing. Fields include product name, SKU, unit price, quantity on hand, and reorder threshold. This object is optional — only created when the source Panacea data includes inventory records.
Panacea
Reminder / Recurring Schedule
Twenty CRM
Custom Field or Notes
1:1Panacea reminder schedules (annual vaccination reminders, 6-month dental checkups, monthly heartworm prevention) have no direct equivalent in Twenty's workflow model. We export the reminder configuration as a reference document and create a custom recurring-note setup or a custom field on the Patient record storing the next reminder date. The actual automation must be rebuilt in Twenty's workflow builder.
Panacea
Payment
Twenty CRM
Custom Object: Payment (linked to Invoice)
1:1Individual payments made against a Panacea invoice are migrated as Payment records linked to the corresponding custom Invoice object in Twenty. Each Payment carries the payment date, amount, payment method, and a reference back to the Invoice and People records.

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.
Panacea gotchas
Unsubmitted EDI claims are dropped during version upgrades
Power management interruption can corrupt the conversion
Notification absence causes missed supplier responses
Large practice histories require 12-hour conversion windows
Reporting limitations require post-migration tooling
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
Audit Panacea data model and inventory all record types
FlitStack connects to Panacea using read-only API credentials and inventories every record type: client owners, patient animals, appointments, treatments, invoices, payments, vaccinations, staff, and any custom fields defined in the Panacea admin panel. We produce a data audit report listing record counts per type, a sample of each record's field structure, and a completeness assessment flagging records missing email addresses, owner links, or critical timestamps. This report drives the schema plan for Twenty's Data Model setup and identifies which custom objects need to be created before import.
Create Twenty custom objects and fields
Before any data moves, FlitStack creates the custom Patient, Vaccination, and Invoice objects in Twenty's Settings → Data Model, along with all custom fields identified during the audit. For each custom field, we document the source Panacea field name, the Twenty field name, the field type (text, number, date, select, multi-select, relation), and any value-mapping rules. The Twenty workspace admin reviews and approves the schema plan — no data import proceeds until the schema is confirmed in place. Workspace Members are also invited at this stage so staff records exist for owner-resolution matching.
Resolve staff and owner relationships by email
Panacea appointment records assign veterinarians by staff ID. We match each Panacea staff ID to a Twenty Workspace Member by email. For client owners, email addresses serve as the unique identifier for People record deduplication — if a Panacea owner email matches an existing Twenty Workspace Member email, we flag that conflict before migration to prevent owner-assignment errors. Any Panacea staff record without a matching Twenty user is assigned to a fallback 'Unassigned' Workspace Member and flagged for admin review.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 200–500 records spanning owners, patients, appointments, and a few invoices — migrates first via the Twenty CSV import mechanism or API upsert. FlitStack generates a field-level diff report comparing each migrated record against its source in Panacea, verifying that custom field values, relation links (patient→owner, appointment→patient), timestamps, and payment amounts all landed correctly. The client reviews the diff and confirms the mapping before the full migration is scheduled.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup cutover
The full migration runs in record-type sequence: Companies first (for any business-affiliated owners), then People, then custom Patient and Vaccination objects, then Tasks (appointments), then Notes (clinical notes), then Invoice and Payment records. A delta-pickup window — typically 24–48 hours after the main migration run — captures any records created or modified in Panacea during the cutover window. Audit logs record every upsert operation. If reconciliation finds discrepancies exceeding the tolerance threshold, one-click rollback restores Twenty to its pre-migration state.
