Overview
ServiceTitan stores field-service data across customers, service locations, jobs, employees, equipment records, and service agreements — a schema designed around technician dispatch, job costing, and service-agreement tracking. Pipedrive's CRM model uses Persons (contacts), Organizations (companies), Deals (pipeline stages), Leads, Activities, and Products — a schema built around sales pipeline management rather than field operations. The migration maps ServiceTitan Customers to Pipedrive Persons and Organizations, Service Locations to Organization address records, Jobs to Pipedrive Deals with custom fields for dispatch status and technician assignment, and Employees to Pipedrive Users by email match. Equipment records and service agreements have no native Pipedrive equivalent — we carry them as custom fields on Deals or Organizations for reference. ServiceTitan automations, dispatch rules, and schedule triggers are not migratable; those must be rebuilt using Pipedrive's Automations and Sequences tools. FlitStack AI uses ServiceTitan's API to export records, performs field-level validation against Pipedrive's schema, and loads via Pipedrive's Bulk API with a 24–48 hour delta-pickup window to capture in-flight changes during cutover. A sample migration with field-level diff runs first so you verify job-to-deal mapping, location-to-organization resolution, and owner match before the full commit.
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 ServiceTitan object lands in Pipedrive, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
ServiceTitan
Customer
Pipedrive
Person + Organization
many:1ServiceTitan Customer maps to both a Pipedrive Person (primary contact fields: name, email, phone) and an Organization (company name, domain, industry). When a Customer has multiple Service Locations, the Organization record holds the primary address and additional locations are stored as address custom fields on the Organization.
ServiceTitan
Service Location
Pipedrive
Organization (address fields + custom fields)
1:1Each ServiceTitan Service Location for a Customer maps to a set of Organization address fields. When a Customer has multiple locations, those secondary locations are preserved as structured custom fields on the Organization (e.g., Location2_Address__c, Location2_City__c) rather than separate Organization records, to avoid inflating Pipedrive's organization count.
ServiceTitan
Job
Pipedrive
Deal + Activity
1:1ServiceTitan Jobs that represent billable work map to Pipedrive Deals with pipeline stage derived from Job status (Estimate → Open, Scheduled → Won/negotiation, Completed → Won). Dispatch status, assigned technician, and job type migrate as custom fields on the Deal. Non-billable jobs (internal maintenance) map to Pipedrive Activities instead.
ServiceTitan
Employee
Pipedrive
User
1:1ServiceTitan Employees with a role of 'Technician' or 'Office Staff' map to Pipedrive User accounts. Resolution is by email match — the Employee's email address must exactly match a Pipedrive user email for the OwnerId to resolve correctly on migrated Deals and Persons.
ServiceTitan
Estimate
Pipedrive
Deal
1:1ServiceTitan Estimates map to Pipedrive Deals in an early pipeline stage. The estimate total amount maps to Deal value, and the estimate status (Sent, Accepted, Declined) maps to the corresponding Pipedrive stage. Original estimate date is preserved as a custom field.
ServiceTitan
Equipment
Pipedrive
Custom fields on Organization or Deal
1:1ServiceTitan Equipment records linked to a Service Location have no native Pipedrive equivalent. We map equipment make, model, serial number, and install date as custom fields on the associated Organization record. Multiple equipment items per location are stored as repeatable custom fields or a serialized JSON field on the Organization.
ServiceTitan
Service Agreement
Pipedrive
Custom fields on Organization or Deal
1:1ServiceTitan Service Agreement records (recurring maintenance contracts tied to a customer or location) map to custom fields on the Organization record in Pipedrive — agreement type, start/end dates, coverage scope, and monthly/annual value are preserved as structured custom fields since Pipedrive lacks a native contract object.
ServiceTitan
Invoice
Pipedrive
Deal (fields) + Activity
1:1ServiceTitan Invoice records map to Deal custom fields capturing invoice number, invoice date, total amount, balance due, and payment status. Invoice line items can be stored as a custom text field on the Deal. Paid invoices update the Deal stage to 'Won'; outstanding balances are flagged in a custom status field.
ServiceTitan
Custom Field (any object)
Pipedrive
Custom field (same object in Pipedrive)
1:1ServiceTitan custom fields on any object are recreated as Pipedrive custom fields on the equivalent target object before migration. The field name, type, and pick-list values are matched. Pipedrive generates a 40-character hash key for each custom field — those keys are used in the bulk import payload.
ServiceTitan
Job Note / Attachment
Pipedrive
Activity + File Attachment
1:1ServiceTitan Job notes map to Pipedrive Activity records with type 'Note' attached to the corresponding Deal. File attachments on Jobs (photos, diagrams) are downloaded and re-uploaded as Pipedrive file attachments on the Deal or Person record. File size limits (25MB per file in Pipedrive) are enforced during re-upload.
ServiceTitan
Lead (from ServiceTitan lead records if present)
Pipedrive
Lead
1:1ServiceTitan lead records map directly to Pipedrive Leads using field-level mapping. HubSpot-style lifecycle stages do not exist in ServiceTitan, so this mapping is straightforward — source title, company, phone, email, and status map directly to Pipedrive Lead fields without requiring any transformation logic or value mapping.
ServiceTitan
Activity (calls, emails, meetings)
Pipedrive
Activity
1:1ServiceTitan activities (logged calls, emails, meeting notes) attached to Jobs or Customers map to Pipedrive Activities linked to the corresponding Person or Deal. Original timestamps and assigned employee (resolved to Pipedrive User by email) are preserved on each Activity record.

Migration approach
Source data audit and schema mapping plan
FlitStack AI exports ServiceTitan records via their API (Customers, Service Locations, Jobs, Employees, Equipment, Service Agreements, Estimates, Invoices, Activities, Notes, Attachments) and analyzes the data for duplicates, orphaned records, and N:1 location mappings. We produce a written audit report identifying what maps cleanly to Pipedrive objects and what requires custom field design or resolution rules — specifically the multi-location-per-customer collapse decision and equipment/agreement field creation plan.
Pipedrive custom field and pipeline pre-creation
Before data loads, your Pipedrive admin (or our team) creates the custom fields we identified in the audit — equipment fields on Organizations, service-agreement fields on Organizations, dispatch-status and job-type fields on Deals, and the source_system_id reference field on all objects. Pipedrive generates hash keys for each custom field; we confirm those keys match our mapping plan before proceeding. Pipedrive's default pipeline stages are reviewed against the job-status value-mapping table.
Owner and user resolution by email match
ServiceTitan employee email addresses are matched against Pipedrive user accounts. Unresolved employees — those with no matching Pipedrive user — are flagged with a fallback owner assignment before migration. No Deal or Person lands without a valid Pipedrive OwnerId. If your team has more ServiceTitan employees than Pipedrive seats, you will need to add Pipedrive users or consolidate to the active team before migration.
Sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of records (typically 200–500 covering Customers, Service Locations, Jobs, Employees, and Equipment) migrates first. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values to destination values in Pipedrive — verifying that Job status maps to the correct stage_id, equipment fields land on the right Organization, and technician assignment resolves to a Pipedrive User. You review the diff and approve before the full run commits.
Full migration with delta-pickup window
The full dataset loads into Pipedrive via their Bulk API with throttling to respect rate limits. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any ServiceTitan records modified or created during the cutover period. FlitStack AI logs every operation in an audit trail. One-click rollback reverts the Pipedrive account to its pre-migration state if reconciliation fails. After rollback verification, your team goes live in Pipedrive.
