Migrate from SalesPro CRM to Zoho CRM

SalesPro Contacts map to Zoho Leads for unqualified or prospect-stage records and to Zoho Contacts for qualified buyer records. We apply a split rule based on the contact's event participation status and last activity type during migration. Preserved fields include Full Name, Email, Phone, Company association (linked via Account lookup), and any permission-based sharing flags mapped to Zoho's sharing model. SalesPro contact-to-event linkage is maintained as a Zoho lookup from the Contact record to the migrated Event.

SalesPro Company records map directly to Zoho Accounts. The company name becomes the Account Name, industry classification maps to the Account Industry picklist, and any company-level notes migrate as a Zoho Account Note. Company-Contact linkage is preserved by resolving the SalesPro contact's company association to the newly created Account and setting the Contact's Account Name lookup at migration time.

SalesPro Events contain date ranges, group details, guest counts, and BEO references. They map to Zoho Events with Subject (from event name), Start DateTime and End DateTime preserved, Location, and Description. Each Event gets an internal reference ID stored in a custom field so that BEO records can look up to the correct parent Event. Guest list details from SalesPro migrate as a multi-line text custom field on the Zoho Event.

SalesPro BEO records are auto-generated from Events and contain cost calculations, timeline specifications, and event output fields. Zoho has no native BEO object, so we create a Zoho custom module named BEO with fields for Event Reference (lookup to the migrated Event), Cost Breakdown (currency fields), Timeline Details (date range), Guest Count, Contract Status, and Signed Document URL. The Event-to-BEO linkage is reconstructed using the custom lookup field populated at migration time. Orphaned BEOs (where the source Event was deleted before export) are flagged in a pre-migration audit for the customer to resolve.

SalesPro Tasks with assignees, due dates, email reminders, and completion status map to Zoho Tasks. The assignee maps via email lookup to the Zoho User record. Status (Open, Completed) maps directly. Completion timestamps from SalesPro's People Tracker dashboard migrate as Zoho Task Modified Time for records showing task completion. Task descriptions, priority, and reminder flags transfer as-is.

SalesPro Milestones tied to individual deals or events map to a Zoho custom Milestones module with Name, Target Date, Status, and linked Deal (lookup to the Zoho Potential record). For milestone tracking that is goal-based rather than event-based, we create a dedicated Zoho custom module to avoid mixing milestone data with standard Tasks. The customer chooses milestone strategy during scoping.

SalesPro pipeline and stage configurations map to Zoho Potential Stages. Stage names migrate verbatim; relative ordering is preserved through the Stage Sequence order field in Zoho. If SalesPro has custom stage names beyond the standard set, we create Zoho picklist values to match before migration. Stage-dependent workflow triggers are noted for the customer's admin to rebuild in Zoho Blueprint post-migration.

SalesPro Users assigned to Contacts, Tasks, and Events map to Zoho Users by email address. Permission-based sharing flags from SalesPro map to Zoho Roles and Profiles. Owner reassignment during migration requires the customer to provision Zoho User accounts for any SalesPro user without an existing Zoho login, identified during the user reconciliation step before record migration begins.

SalesPro calendar entries (bookings and resource assignments) migrate as Zoho Events with the booking timestamp set as Start DateTime, resource details stored in the Description field, and any assigned team member linked via the Zoho Event's User lookup. Recurring calendar patterns in SalesPro are noted and mapped to Zoho recurring Events post-migration by the admin.

SalesPro does not expose a bulk attachment export endpoint via its webhook API. We notify the customer during scoping that attachment migration requires manual retrieval from SalesPro's file storage or direct request to SalesPro support. For Zoho, attachments are stored via the native file upload on records or Zoho WorkDrive. We set up a Zoho WorkDrive folder structure mirroring the SalesPro record organization and provide the customer with a file-mapping guide to manually transfer attachments post-migration.
