Overview
REIPro organizes real estate investing around a 10-step workflow tracker attached to properties and deals, storing contacts, companies, property records, and activity history. Odoo CRM uses crm.lead as its unified lead/opportunity model keyed to res.partner contacts, with pipeline stages managed through crm.stage and crm.team. We map REIPro contacts to res.partner, REIPro deals and property analytics to crm.lead with custom fields, and REIPro workflow steps to a custom workflow-step tracking field. The migration uses Odoo's XML-RPC API (1 request per second throttling on standard plans) or CSV import for larger datasets. REIPro's automations, scripts, and marketing sequences have no direct Odoo equivalent and must be rebuilt using Odoo CRM's built-in automation rules or Odoo Workflow modules post-migration. Data cleansing before migration is critical because investor databases frequently contain duplicate owner records, missing contact info, and property addresses stored inconsistently across counties. During the audit phase we also flag any res.partner records lacking an email that would prevent automatic user assignment, and we recommend creating Odoo users for all team members before the migration run so that crm.lead.user_id can be populated without fallback assignments. After the initial load, a delta-pickup window captures any new or modified REIPro records created during cutover, ensuring that the final Odoo database reflects the most current deal status, activity logs, and property analytics at go‑live.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a REIPro 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.
REIPro
Contact
Odoo CRM
res.partner
1:1REIPro contacts map to Odoo res.partner records. The contact's name, email, phone, and address fields transfer directly. REIPro contacts without a company link create res.partner records with no company_id set, which Odoo handles natively. After migration, each res.partner appears in the contact list and can be linked to opportunities, invoices, or projects as needed.
REIPro
Company
Odoo CRM
res.partner (company_type = 'company')
1:1REIPro company records map to res.partner with company_type set to 'company'. Property owner information stored as REIPro companies transfers as vendor or customer partners depending on the relationship type captured in the source. During the migration, each company partner receives a unique id and can be assigned to relevant purchase or sales orders, allowing Odoo's purchase and sales modules to track vendor contracts and customer accounts.
REIPro
Property / Deal
Odoo CRM
crm.lead
1:1REIPro property records with deal status map to Odoo crm.lead opportunities. The property address, estimated value, and rehab costs become custom fields on crm.lead. Odoo requires partner_id on crm.lead, so the associated REIPro contact or company must resolve to a res.partner first.
REIPro
Workflow Step
Odoo CRM
Custom Char/Selection field on crm.lead
1:1REIPro's 10-step workflow tracker has no native Odoo equivalent. We create a custom selection field (Workflow_Step__c) on crm.lead with the 10 step names from REIPro's pipeline configuration. The current step per property/deal migrates as the field value at migration time.
REIPro
Pipeline Stage
Odoo CRM
crm.stage (per crm.team)
1:1REIPro's workflow stage names (e.g., 'Lead', 'Under Contract', 'Rehab', 'Sold') map to Odoo crm.stage records. Each stage requires value mapping since REIPro stage names are user-defined text strings. We match by stage sequence order when exact name matching fails. If your pipeline includes custom stage colors or team-specific stages, we create separate crm.stage entries per crm.team and configure stage probabilities to match your historical close rates.
REIPro
Activity (Call / Email / Note)
Odoo CRM
mail.message / crm.lead.activity
1:1REIPro logged calls, emails, and notes attach to crm.lead records via Odoo's mail.message model. Original timestamps and owner information are preserved. The activity type (call, email, note) maps to mail.message.message_type for Odoo chatter display. All migrated messages appear in the lead’s chatter, allowing team members to view the full communication history directly on the opportunity form without switching screens.
REIPro
Direct Mail Campaign
Odoo CRM
Custom field + Note on crm.lead
1:1REIPro's built-in direct mail engine has no Odoo CRM equivalent. Mail campaign history and postcard tracking data migrate as a custom text field on crm.lead. Odoo Marketing Automation is available for rebuilding outbound mail sequences post-migration. To continue direct mail efforts, you can configure Odoo’s Email Marketing app, integrate with third‑party services such as Mailchimp or SendGrid, or use Odoo’s custom fields to store campaign identifiers for external processing.
REIPro
Skip Trace Data
Odoo CRM
Custom fields on res.partner
1:1REIPro provides skip-trace enrichment data (owner phone numbers, emails) that Odoo does not store natively. We migrate this as custom fields on res.partner (SkipTrace_Phone__c, SkipTrace_Email__c). Data freshness depends on when REIPro's last skip-trace credit was used. After migration, these fields appear on the contact form and can be used in Odoo’s phone and email templates. For skip-trace services, you can connect Odoo to providers via custom API modules or Zapier.
REIPro
Property Image / Attachment
Odoo CRM
ir.attachment linked to crm.lead
1:1REIPro property images and documents attach to crm.lead records via Odoo's ir.attachment model. Files re-upload to Odoo's filestore. Size limits apply — Odoo defaults to 25MB per file. We flag oversized files before migration for manual handling. After migration, attachments appear in the lead’s document tab, where you can preview images and download files. If any file exceeds the 25 MB limit, FlitStack alerts your admin to handle it manually.
REIPro
Lead Source / Campaign
Odoo CRM
crm.lead.source_id
1:1REIPro tracks lead sources (absentee owner, pre-foreclosure, etc.) as deal or contact properties. These map to Odoo's campaign and utm.source tracking via crm.lead.source_id. New Odoo campaign records are created if matching sources don't exist in the destination. During migration, each source value is matched to an Odoo utm.source record; if none matches, FlitStack creates a new source entry, ensuring that lead source reporting remains accurate in Odoo’s dashboard and analytics.
REIPro
Owner / Team Member
Odoo CRM
res.users (assigned via crm.lead.user_id)
1:1REIPro workflow owners map to Odoo res.users by email match. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration. In REIPro Team Plan, team members without Odoo user accounts receive a fallback assignment or get invited to Odoo before the migration commits. If an owner’s email matches an Odoo user, the user_id is populated directly; otherwise, FlitStack creates a user record and your admin can merge it with the correct account after go‑live.
REIPro
MLS Comps / ARV Data
Odoo CRM
Custom fields on crm.lead
1:1REIPro's After Repaired Value (ARV) estimates and MLS comp data have no native Odoo CRM fields. We create custom number fields (ARV_Estimate__c, MLS_Comp_Price__c) on crm.lead. The source of the estimate (REIPro data vs. user entry) is preserved as a note on the field.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit REIPro data and create Odoo custom fields
FlitStack AI exports a full snapshot of your REIPro data including contacts, companies, deals, workflow steps, property addresses, activity history, and skip-trace enrichment. We audit for duplicates, missing owner emails, and incomplete property addresses. Parallel to this, your Odoo admin creates the custom fields we specify — x_workflow_step, x_property_street, x_arv_estimate, x_repair_cost, x_skip_trace_phone, and any other REIPro properties not covered by Odoo standard fields. Odoo custom fields are created in Settings > Technical > Custom Fields before the migration run.
Resolve owners by email and create Odoo users
REIPro team members and deal owners are matched to Odoo res.users by email address. Any owner without an existing Odoo user account is flagged for your admin to create the account or to assign those records to a designated fallback user before migration. This ensures every crm.lead receives a valid user_id at migration time, preventing orphaned records that would not appear in the Odoo pipeline view. The matching process also populates the user’s display name and email in the lead chatter, allowing your team to see the responsible owner immediately after go‑live.
Migrate res.partner records before crm.lead
Odoo crm.lead requires a partner_id (res.partner) for most operations, including activity logging, email tracking, and reporting. We therefore sequence the migration so res.partner records (contacts and companies) load first, establishing the contact graph and ensuring every partner exists before any opportunity references them. After the partner load completes, crm.lead opportunities are migrated with their linked partner_id and all custom property fields such as x_workflow_step, x_property_street, and x_arv_estimate. This ordering respects Odoo’s foreign‑key constraints, prevents validation errors, and guarantees that the pipeline view, Kanban cards, and activity chatters render correctly immediately after migration.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, companies, property deals, and activities — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff showing source value vs. destination field for every mapped column. You verify that workflow step values landed in x_workflow_step, property addresses populated in the custom address fields, and owner resolution produced the correct user_id assignments before the full run commits.
Cut over with delta-pickup for in-flight changes
Full migration runs against Odoo using the API and CSV hybrid approach. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any new or modified REIPro records created during the cutover window so Odoo reflects your final state at go-live. FlitStack AI logs every operation in an audit trail, and one-click rollback is available if reconciliation uncovers discrepancies in record counts or field values after go-live.
