Overview
StrategicERP is a broad ERP platform spanning Real Estate Management, Construction Project Management, Financial Management, and industry-specific modules such as Ceramic Manufacturing and Stock Management. Its CRM-adjacent modules — Leads Management and Real Estate CRM — store contact, company, and deal data but in a schema structured around project lifecycles and industry verticals rather than a standard CRM object model. Nutshell is a purpose-built sales CRM with three core record types: Person (contact), Account (company), and Lead, plus Deals with a customizable single-pipeline model. The migration challenge is threefold: extracting CRM data from StrategicERP's industry-specific module structure, normalizing it into Nutshell's flat Person/Account/Deal hierarchy, and surfacing which operational data (projects, financial records, inventory) has no CRM equivalent and must remain in StrategicERP or be archived. We map StrategicERP's Leads module to Nutshell's Person records, Real Estate CRM company data to Nutshell Accounts, and active deal records to Nutshell Deals. Industry-specific properties — property types, unit configurations, project phases, contractor assignments — migrate as custom fields on Deals or Accounts depending on context. Module-level constructs such as pipeline stage names, sales-process ownership rules, and property-status workflows do not have Nutshell equivalents; we document them for manual rebuild in Nutshell's automation and pipeline configuration tools. The migration runs via API extraction from StrategicERP and API insertion into Nutshell, with a sample test migration and field-level diff before the full run commits. A 24–48 hour delta-pickup window captures any in-flight changes during cutover.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a StrategicERP object lands in Nutshell, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
StrategicERP
Leads (Leads Management module)
Nutshell
Person
1:1StrategicERP's Leads Management records map directly to Nutshell Persons. Fields including name, email, phone, and lead source migrate as direct mappings. Owner assignment resolves by email match against Nutshell users. If a StrategicERP owner email does not match any Nutshell user, the record is flagged and assigned to a fallback owner pending manual review.
StrategicERP
Lead Status
Nutshell
Lead Status
1:1StrategicERP lead stages (New, Contacted, Qualified, Lost) map value-by-value to Nutshell Lead Status options. Custom lead stages in StrategicERP require a custom value mapping table built during the migration plan phase. We work with your team to identify all custom stage values and create the corresponding Nutshell options before the migration run.
StrategicERP
Real Estate CRM — Companies
Nutshell
Account
1:1StrategicERP's Real Estate CRM Company records (name, address, contact person, industry) map to Nutshell Accounts. Company hierarchies (parent/child) flatten to a single Account record; the parent relationship is preserved as a custom Account field for reference. This flattening approach maintains data integrity while fitting within Nutshell's Account structure.
StrategicERP
Real Estate CRM — Deals (Presales, Sales)
Nutshell
Deal
1:1Active sales records in StrategicERP's Real Estate CRM map to Nutshell Deals. Fields including deal name, amount, stage, close date, and owner migrate directly. Stage names require value mapping to Nutshell's pipeline stages. We coordinate with your team to define the stage mapping before migration, ensuring that deal progress is accurately reflected in Nutshell's pipeline.
StrategicERP
Property / Unit Records
Nutshell
Custom Fields on Deal or Account
1:1StrategicERP property records (unit number, floor, configuration, booking status, payment plan) have no Nutshell native equivalent. These fields migrate as custom fields on the associated Deal or Account record. Property-level status workflows require manual rebuild in Nutshell's automation tools. We document all custom field mappings and provide guidance on recreating workflows post-migration.
StrategicERP
Construction CRM — Projects / Sites
Nutshell
Deal (reclassified)
1:1StrategicERP Construction CRM project records can be reframed as Nutshell Deals with custom fields for project phase, site location, and contractor. Operational data (purchase orders, material schedules) has no CRM equivalent and is archived as a reference export rather than migrated.
StrategicERP
Contractor / Supplier Records
Nutshell
Account (reclassified)
1:1StrategicERP Contractor Management records map to Nutshell Accounts with a custom type field set to 'Contractor'. Services or trade categories migrate as custom multi-select fields. Daily rate and contract value fields become custom numeric fields on the Account. This structure allows you to track contractor relationships and performance within Nutshell's standard account management interface.
StrategicERP
Purchase Orders / Stock Records
Nutshell
No equivalent
1:1StrategicERP's Stock Management, Purchase Orders, and inventory records are ERP financials with no CRM analogue. These remain in StrategicERP. We export them as a standalone data file for reference and archive; they are not inserted into Nutshell. This export preserves your financial and inventory data for future reference or integration with dedicated accounting software.
StrategicERP
Notes and Attachments
Nutshell
Note
1:1Notes attached to Leads, Companies, or Deals in StrategicERP migrate as Nutshell Notes, linked to the corresponding Person, Account, or Deal record. File attachments download and re-upload to Nutshell's file storage. Large files (>25MB) are flagged for manual re-upload. We verify that all note content and file links are properly associated in Nutshell after migration.
StrategicERP
Activities (calls, emails, meetings)
Nutshell
Activity
1:1Activity history logged in StrategicERP — call logs, email records, meeting schedules — migrates as Nutshell Activities associated with the relevant Person or Deal. Original timestamps and owner IDs are preserved. Nutshell's activity types (call, email, meeting) map directly from StrategicERP's activity kinds.
StrategicERP
Financial Records (invoices, payments)
Nutshell
No equivalent
1:1StrategicERP Financial Management module records (invoices, receipts, payment plans) are accounting data outside Nutshell's scope. These are exported as a structured CSV/JSON file for import into accounting software. They are not inserted into Nutshell Deals or Accounts. We provide a mapping guide for importing this financial data into your accounting system of choice.
StrategicERP
User / Owner Records
Nutshell
User
1:1StrategicERP user accounts (sales reps, project managers) are matched to Nutshell users by email address. Unmatched users are flagged before migration; their records assign to a fallback Nutshell owner. Nutshell's per-user billing means the client must provision Nutshell seats for all active migrated owners.
StrategicERP
Custom Module Fields
Nutshell
Custom Field
1:1Any custom fields defined within StrategicERP's module builder (e.g., field agent region, project priority tier, unit Carpet Area) migrate as Nutshell custom fields on the appropriate record type. Field data types are preserved; unsupported types (e.g., complex calculations) are stored as text.
StrategicERP
E-Commerce / Product Records
Nutshell
No equivalent (reference only)
1:1StrategicERP's E-Commerce module (Lokacart) product catalog does not have a Nutshell equivalent. Product SKUs, pricing, and inventory levels are exported separately. If the client uses Nutshell for sales and a separate platform for commerce, product data remains in the commerce platform.

Migration approach
Audit StrategicERP modules and reconstruct CRM dataset
FlitStack AI reviews your StrategicERP module configuration to identify which modules contain CRM-relevant records — Leads Management, Real Estate CRM, and Construction CRM. We work with your IT team to extract records from the relevant tables or built-in reports, reconstruct a normalized dataset, and document the schema discovery findings. This step produces a data dictionary mapping each StrategicERP field to its target Nutshell equivalent before any migration logic runs.
Create Nutshell custom fields for industry-specific properties
Based on the audit, we create all required Nutshell custom fields on Person, Account, Lead, and Deal records to accommodate StrategicERP's industry context — property unit numbers, booking status, project phase, contractor tier, and any other module-specific fields. Custom field creation happens in the Nutshell account before the migration run so target fields exist at validation time. We verify that field data types align with Nutshell's supported formats (text, number, date, pick-list, multi-select) and flag any unsupported types for alternative handling during the migration run.
Match StrategicERP users to Nutshell seats
StrategicERP owner IDs resolve against Nutshell users by email address. We generate a match report identifying which owners have an existing Nutshell seat, which need a new seat provisioned, and which should be assigned to a fallback owner. No record migrates without a resolved owner. Seat provisioning is the client's responsibility, but we provide the exact list of email addresses needed.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–500 records spanning Persons, Accounts, Leads, Deals, and Activities — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values against Nutshell target values so you can verify stage mapping, custom field population, owner resolution, and note attachment before the full run commits. Adjustments to the mapping plan happen at this stage. The diff output highlights any records that failed validation, any fields that truncated due to Nutshell's character limits, and any custom field values that require manual review before the full dataset runs.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full dataset migrates to Nutshell. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours after the main run captures any records modified in StrategicERP during the cutover window. Audit logs record every operation. If reconciliation identifies missing or mismatched records, one-click rollback reverts the Nutshell dataset to the pre-migration state so the run can be corrected and re-executed. We provide a final migration summary report that includes record counts by object type, error rates, and any records that were skipped or flagged for manual resolution at go-live.
