Overview
Teams migrate from RAMM to Odoo CRM when they want a unified ERP-CRM platform instead of separate CRM and accounting tools. RAMM stores contacts, companies, and deals in a single object model with lifecycle stage as the unifying property; Odoo splits leads and opportunities into separate models (crm.lead and res.partner) with stage pick-list values that are defined per pipeline. FlitStack AI extracts RAMM data via its API, maps contact records to Odoo res.partner, maps RAMM deals to crm.lead, and creates custom fields in Odoo for RAMM custom properties using snake_case naming. Lifecycle stage from RAMM becomes the stage field on crm.lead, mapped value-by-value to pre-configured Odoo pipeline stages. Workflows, automations, notification templates, roles, and permissions do not migrate — those are Odoo configuration work your admin rebuilds. We export RAMM workflow definitions as a rebuild reference. The migration uses Odoo's XML-RPC API at 1 request per second, with batched imports of 500 records and a 24–48 hour delta-pickup window capturing in-flight changes at cutover.
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 RAMM 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.
RAMM
Contact
Odoo CRM
res.partner
1:1RAMM contacts map to Odoo res.partner records. The partner type (customer, vendor, or both) is set based on RAMM contact classification. Email, phone, address, and job title fields transfer directly. If RAMM stores a lifecycle stage, the contact routes to crm.lead in addition to res.partner.
RAMM
Contact (with lifecycle or status stage)
Odoo CRM
crm.lead
1:manyRAMM contacts that have a deal or lifecycle stage value (New, Working, Qualified, Customer) split into Odoo crm.lead records. The RAMM stage value maps to an Odoo stage_id by name lookup in the target pipeline. Unmapped stage names are flagged for pipeline pre-configuration before migration.
RAMM
Company
Odoo CRM
res.partner (company type)
1:1RAMM company records map to Odoo res.partner with partner_type='company'. Company name maps to name; domain maps to website; industry maps to industry_id; employee count maps to employee_count; annual revenue maps to revenue. Address fields (street, city, country) map to the corresponding Odoo partner address fields.
RAMM
Deal
Odoo CRM
crm.lead
1:1RAMM deal records map to Odoo crm.lead. Deal name becomes name; amount becomes expected_revenue; close date becomes date_deadline; owner resolves by email match to Odoo res.users. Pipeline from RAMM maps to Odoo team_id; RAMM stage name maps to stage_id within that team.
RAMM
Pipeline
Odoo CRM
crm.team + crm.stage
1:1RAMM pipeline definitions become Odoo crm.team records. Each team has its own set of stage records in crm.stage with name, sequence, and probability. Teams are matched by name; missing teams are created during migration setup. Stage sequence order is preserved from RAMM.
RAMM
Pipeline Stage
Odoo CRM
crm.stage
1:1Stage names map value-by-value from RAMM to Odoo stage names. Where RAMM stage names differ from Odoo target stage names, a value-mapping table specifies the translation. Stage probability and onglet (legend color) are carried over. Stage-entered timestamps are stored as Char fields in Odoo since stage history is not natively preserved.
RAMM
Custom Property / Custom Field
Odoo CRM
ir.model.fields (custom)
1:1RAMM custom properties require pre-creation in Odoo as ir.model.fields before migration. Field names convert from RAMM camelCase to Odoo snake_case. Field types are mapped: text to text, number to float, date to date, select to selection. Selection option values must be pre-defined in Odoo. We deliver a custom-field creation plan as part of the migration package.
RAMM
Activity / Engagement (calls, emails, notes)
Odoo CRM
mail.message
1:1RAMM activity history (logged calls, sent emails, meeting notes) migrates as Odoo mail.message records linked to the corresponding crm.lead or res.partner. Subject maps to subject; body maps to body; date maps to date; owner resolves by email match to res.users. Attachments download from RAMM and re-upload to Odoo's ir.attachment.
RAMM
Attachment / File
Odoo CRM
ir.attachment
1:1RAMM file attachments on contacts, companies, or deals download from RAMM storage and upload to Odoo ir.attachment linked to the migrated record. File name and content are preserved. Odoo's default file size limit is 25MB per attachment; files exceeding this are flagged for manual handling.
RAMM
User / Owner
Odoo CRM
res.users
1:1RAMM owner and user records resolve by email match to Odoo res.users. Where RAMM users have no matching Odoo user by email, records are assigned to a fallback Odoo user and flagged in the pre-migration audit report. Your team creates Odoo user accounts for unmatched owners before the full migration run.
RAMM
Workflow / Automation
Odoo CRM
Not migratable
1:1RAMM workflow rules, sequences, and automation triggers do not have an Odoo equivalent that can be imported. These must be rebuilt using Odoo Studio (action rules, automated actions) or Python server actions. FlitStack exports RAMM workflow definitions as a reference document for your Odoo admin to use during the rebuild phase.

Migration approach
Export RAMM data and configure Odoo schema in parallel
FlitStack extracts all RAMM objects via the platform API — contacts, companies, deals, custom properties, activity history, and attachments — into a structured staging format. Simultaneously, we build an Odoo schema setup plan listing every crm.team to create, every crm.stage to configure (with name and sequence), and every ir.model.fields custom field to pre-create (with name, type, and selection values). Your Odoo admin creates the schema before the migration run so target fields exist when data lands.
Resolve RAMM owners to Odoo users by email
FlitStack matches RAMM owner and user email addresses against Odoo res.users records. Where an email match is found, the RAMM owner maps directly to the Odoo user_id on migrated crm.lead records. Where no match exists, the record is assigned to a designated fallback Odoo user and flagged in the pre-migration audit report with the RAMM owner name and email so your team can decide whether to create a corresponding Odoo account before the full migration.
Migrate partners and leads with stage and owner mapping
Companies import first as res.partner records (company type). Contacts import next as res.partner records linked to their parent company. RAMM contacts with an active deal or lifecycle stage split into crm.lead records, with the RAMM stage name resolved to an Odoo crm.stage_id by the pre-agreed value-mapping table. RAMM custom property values write to the pre-created custom fields using the same field-type mapping. Owner assignment resolves via the email lookup from Step 2. Attachments download and re-upload to ir.attachment linked to the migrated record.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of 100–500 records migrates first — covering a range of contact types, deal stages, and custom field values. FlitStack generates a field-level diff comparing source RAMM values against the resulting Odoo crm.lead and res.partner records. You verify that stage mapping, owner resolution, custom field values, and activity attachment links match expectations before the full run commits. Sample migration results are delivered as a structured report within 4–8 hours of the test run.
Cut over with delta-pickup for in-flight records
The full migration runs against Odoo using batched API calls at 1 request per second. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours after the full run) re-queries RAMM for any records modified or created after the migration snapshot timestamp, capturing changes made in RAMM during the cutover. All operations — records created, records updated, errors, rollbacks — are logged to an audit trail. One-click rollback reverts the Odoo database to the pre-migration state if reconciliation against the RAMM export count fails.
