Overview
Salesflo Engage centers on field operations: scheduled visits, unscheduled visits, form-based data collection, GPS location tagging, and workflow assignments for retail or field sales teams. It does not model leads, opportunities, or pipeline stages — it models what your team did in the field. Dynamics 365 Sales uses the Microsoft Dataverse data model with Leads, Contacts, Accounts, and Opportunities as the primary CRM objects, plus activity tables for Tasks and Appointments. There is no native visit or workflow object in Dynamics 365 Sales; these require custom field design and, in the case of workflows, a rebuild in Power Automate. We map Salesflo user records to Dynamics 365 systemusers, all visit and task history to Tasks and Appointments, location records to Accounts with GPS coordinates in custom decimal fields, and form submissions to a custom FormSubmission table in Dataverse. Workflow definitions export as structured JSON so your Dynamics admin can rebuild them in Power Automate. The migration runs via Dataverse web API and bulk operations, with a sample migration and field-level diff before the full cutover and a delta-pickup window for in-flight records.
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 Salesflo Engage object lands in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales , including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Salesflo Engage
User
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
systemuser
1:1Salesflo Engage team members map directly to Dynamics 365 systemuser records. Owner resolution uses email matching against the destination user list — unmatched owners are flagged before migration so their records land with a fallback owner. This ensures referential integrity and prevents orphaned records in the destination system.
Salesflo Engage
Scheduled Visit
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Appointment
1:1Scheduled visits translate to Dynamics 365 Appointment records with visit start time mapped to ScheduledStart, end time to ScheduledEnd, and status values (completed, cancelled, no-show) mapped to StateCode and StatusCode. Original timestamps are preserved in custom datetime fields on the appointment record for historical reference.
Salesflo Engage
Unscheduled Visit
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Task
1:1Unscheduled visits and general field activity records become Dynamics 365 Task entities. A custom flag field (Unscheduled_Visit__c) distinguishes them from routine tasks, and visit outcome and notes map to the Description field. Owner resolves by email match to systemuser for accurate assignment tracking.
Salesflo Engage
Location / Store
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Account
1:1Salesflo Engage location and store records map to Dynamics 365 Account records. Store name maps to Account.Name, full address splits into Address1 fields. GPS latitude and longitude are preserved as custom decimal fields (Location_Latitude__c and Location_Longitude__c) since Dataverse has no native location entity.
Salesflo Engage
Form / Survey
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Custom FormSubmission Table
1:1Dynamics 365 has no native form or survey entity. Each Salesflo Engage form becomes a custom Dataverse table named FormSubmission with fields for Form_Name__c (text), Submitted_At__c (datetime), Submitted_By__c (lookup to systemuser), and Response_Data__c (multitext storing the full JSON response payload for queryable reference.
Salesflo Engage
Workflow
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Power Automate (rebuild required)
1:1Salesflo Engage workflow definitions do not migrate to Dynamics 365. We export each workflow as a structured JSON document describing its steps, triggers, and assignments — your Dynamics admin uses this as a reference to rebuild equivalent flows in Power Automate. Workflows are always disclosed as a manual-rebuild item in our migration plan.
Salesflo Engage
Team / Role
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Security Role
1:1Salesflo Engage team structure and role assignments map to Dynamics 365 Security Roles. Each Salesflo team becomes a corresponding D365 security role; you define which entities and fields each role can read, write, or delete. Page layout assignments are a separate destination-side configuration step.
Salesflo Engage
Visit Note / Attachment
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Annotation
1:1Notes and file attachments attached to Salesflo Engage visit records migrate as Dynamics 365 Annotations (note records). Files re-upload to SharePoint or Dataverse storage depending on your D365 configuration. Inline images in notes are downloaded and rehosted in the destination document library.
Salesflo Engage
Form Response
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
FormSubmission Record
1:1Individual form submissions become rows in the custom FormSubmission Dataverse table. The Submitted_At__c field preserves the original submission timestamp. Response_Data__c stores the complete JSON payload so the full survey context is queryable in D365 even though there is no native form builder.
Salesflo Engage
GPS / Location Tag
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales
Custom Account Fields
1:1GPS coordinates captured at visit time map to Location_Latitude__c and Location_Longitude__c on the parent Account record, and to Visit_Latitude__c and Visit_Longitude__c on the Task record. This enables proximity searches and map-based reporting in Dynamics 365 using Power Apps or third-party map components without native location entities.

Migration approach
Audit Salesflo Engage data inventory and design Dataverse schema
FlitStack AI inventories all visit records, form submissions, location data, and user accounts in your Salesflo Engage environment via scoped API access. We count records per type, audit custom form structures, and identify workflow definitions that need JSON export. Based on this inventory, we design the custom Dataverse tables (FormSubmission, PowerAutomate_Export) and custom fields on Account and Task/Appointment needed to receive your data, flagging whether a Sales Enterprise license is required if your form count exceeds the Professional 15-table limit.
Resolve owners and users by email match
Every visit, task, and form submission in Salesflo Engage carries an owner or assignee. We match Salesflo user email addresses against existing Dynamics 365 systemuser records by email. Unmatched users are flagged before migration begins — your team either provisions them in D365 first or assigns their records to a designated fallback owner. No record lands in Dynamics 365 without a resolved OwnerId.
Build transformation logic and export workflow definitions
We build the field-mapping and transformation logic for every object pair: visits to Tasks and Appointments with custom GPS and status fields, form submissions to the FormSubmission custom table, locations to Accounts with coordinate fields, and workflow definitions to a structured JSON export. Each transformation is documented in a field-level mapping sheet that you can review and approve before the sample migration runs.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 200–500 records spanning visits, accounts, contacts, and form submissions — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff showing every mapped value in the source against its corresponding D365 field, so you can verify GPS coordinate mapping, visit-to-task routing, form submission storage, and owner resolution before the production run commits. You approve the sample output before we proceed to the full dataset migration.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full dataset loads into Dynamics 365 via Dataverse bulk operations and web API calls, sequenced to resolve foreign keys correctly (Accounts first, then Contacts, then Tasks/Appointments, then FormSubmission records). A delta-pickup window captures any records created or modified in Salesflo Engage during the cutover. An audit log records every operation, and one-click rollback reverts the D365 instance to the pre-migration state if reconciliation identifies data integrity issues.
