Overview

What this migration involves

StreetSmart organizes field-service operations around work orders, dispatch records, customer profiles, inventory, scheduling, and time tracking. Salesforce Sales Cloud structures its CRM around Accounts, Contacts, Cases, Opportunities, Assets, and Activities. We map StreetSmart customer and company records to Salesforce Accounts and Contacts, work orders and dispatch records to Salesforce Cases, service history to Case History and Asset records, activities to Tasks and Events, and attachments to Salesforce Files. StreetSmart custom fields and any proprietary scheduling or GPS data migrate as Salesforce custom fields on the corresponding objects. Scheduling rules, route optimization logic, and dispatch configurations have no direct Salesforce equivalent — we export the definitions as reference documentation for your Salesforce admin to rebuild in Salesforce Scheduler or a third-party field-service app. The migration uses Salesforce Bulk API 2.0 for high-volume record loads and the REST API for incremental delta captures during the cutover window. Prior to loading, we validate field-level mapping with a sample set, confirming that timestamps, owner assignments, and custom attributes populate correctly. After the bulk load, a delta capture window of 24–48 hours pulls any late-arriving records, ensuring Salesforce reflects the final StreetSmart state at go‑live. Your admin can then enable Salesforce Maps, Einstein Analytics, or Field Service Lightning using the migrated geolocation and scheduling data.

Field-level fidelity

Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Schema-aware mapping

AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.

Relationships preserved

Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.

Full activity history

Attachments & notes

Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

StreetSmart logo

StreetSmart

What's pushing teams away

  • Limited third-party integrations outside of mainstream ERP connectors — teams using niche or custom back-office systems find StreetSmart lacks out-of-the-box connectivity, requiring expensive custom development.
  • Customisation constraints on workflows and forms — businesses with non-standard service processes find the built-in workflow builder inflexible, especially for multi-step approval chains.
  • Reporting and analytics gaps — users note that built-in dashboards do not provide sufficient visibility into technician utilisation, SLA compliance, or revenue attribution, pushing them toward BI tools.
  • Customer support responsiveness — some reviewers flag delayed response times for technical issues, particularly when integrations break after platform updates.

Choosing

Salesforce Sales Cloud logo

Salesforce Sales Cloud

What's pulling them in

  • The AppExchange marketplace with 5,000+ prebuilt apps gives enterprises integrations for nearly every business workflow without custom development.
  • Native Einstein AI for lead scoring, opportunity insights, and predictive forecasting adds intelligence without a separate platform purchase.
  • Territory management, multi-currency support, and advanced forecasting satisfy the needs of complex B2B sales organizations with structured revenue teams.
  • Slack, Tableau, and CPQ are deeply integrated into the core platform, keeping the sales stack unified for teams already in the Salesforce ecosystem.
  • Organizations with a large, established Salesforce implementation choose it because switching costs — integrations, custom code, trained admins — are prohibitive.

Object mapping

How StreetSmart objects map to Salesforce Sales Cloud

Each row shows how a StreetSmart object lands in Salesforce Sales Cloud, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.

Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.

StreetSmart

Customer / Contact

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart customer contact records map directly to Salesforce Contact. StreetSmart contact name, email, phone, address, and job title translate to Salesforce FirstName, LastName, Email, Phone, MailingAddress, and Title. Salesforce requires AccountId on Contact — StreetSmart customers without a primary company association attach to a default 'Unassigned Account' or get linked based on a parent-company identifier.

StreetSmart

Company / Business Account

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Account

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart company and business-profile records map to Salesforce Account. Name, website, industry, employee count, annual revenue, and billing address on StreetSmart translate to Account.Name, Website, Industry, NumberOfEmployees, AnnualRevenue, and BillingAddress. StreetSmart parent-company or franchise hierarchy maps to Account.ParentId when the hierarchy is defined.

StreetSmart

Work Order / Job Record

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Case

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart work orders are the primary operational record — they include job description, scheduling window, assigned technician, status, priority, and service type. In Salesforce, these map to Case with custom fields capturing StreetSmart-specific attributes like service_type__c, scheduled_start__c, scheduled_end__c, technician_id__c, and route_sequence__c. Case Origin, Status, Priority, and Description map from StreetSmart work order fields.

StreetSmart

Service History

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Asset

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart tracks service history per customer location or equipment asset — each service visit, repair, and maintenance record. In Salesforce, Asset stores equipment or product history linked to an Account. Service events map as Case records linked to the Asset, preserving the original service date, description, and technician who performed the work. Serial number, install date, and status from StreetSmart become Asset.SerialNumber, InstallDate, and Status.

StreetSmart

Inventory Item

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Product2 + Inventory Custom Object

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart inventory records — parts, materials, equipment — do not have a direct Salesforce equivalent at the standard-object level. We map StreetSmart inventory items to Salesforce Product2 for items that map to billable products, and create a custom Inventory_Item__c object for parts and materials that are internal to field operations. SKU, unit cost, quantity on hand, and reorder level from StreetSmart map to custom fields on each target object.

StreetSmart

Scheduling Record

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Custom Field on Case + Custom Scheduler Object

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart scheduling records capture job windows, technician assignments, route order, and travel time. Salesforce does not have a native scheduling object in core Sales Cloud. We map scheduling data as custom fields on Case (Scheduled_Date__c, Technician__c, Route_Sequence__c, Travel_Time_Minutes__c) and deliver a Scheduler_Config__c reference object with exported route sequences for rebuilding in Salesforce Scheduler or an AppExchange field-service app.

StreetSmart

Activity / Time Entry

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Task

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart time tracking entries and activity logs — technician time on job, travel, breaks — map to Salesforce Task with custom fields for hours_spent__c, activity_type__c (on-site, travel, administrative), and start_time__c. The original timestamp, technician owner, and linked Case or Contact are preserved so service-activity reports in Salesforce show the full labor history.

StreetSmart

Customer Signature

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Custom Field on Case

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart captures electronic signatures for work-order confirmation. Salesforce has no native signature field. We map the signature image or hash as Signature_Data__c (Long Text Area) on Case and re-upload the original image file to Salesforce Files linked to the Case record, preserving the audit trail that the signature was collected and attached to the work order.

StreetSmart

Attachment / Photo

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

ContentDocument (Salesforce Files)

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart attachments — photos, forms, documents, and signature images — migrate to Salesforce Files (ContentDocument/ContentVersion model). Files are re-uploaded to Salesforce and linked to the corresponding Account, Contact, Case, or Asset record using ContentDocumentLink. Original filenames and upload timestamps are preserved in ContentVersion metadata.

StreetSmart

GPS / Location Data

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Custom Geolocation Field on Account or Asset

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart captures GPS coordinates for customer locations, technician routes, and job sites. Salesforce custom geolocation fields (Location__c of type Geolocation) store latitude and longitude on Account or Asset. We map StreetSmart location coordinates to Location__Latitude__s and Location__Longitude__s for use in Salesforce Map, Einstein Analytics, or any AppExchange mapping tool your team enables.

StreetSmart

Custom Form Field

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Custom Field __c on Relevant Object

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart customizable forms generate custom fields per deployment — these have no Salesforce native equivalent. We inventory every StreetSmart custom form field during discovery, create matching Salesforce custom fields (suffix __c) on the appropriate object (Account, Contact, Case, or Asset), and apply the correct data type (text, picklist, number, date, checkbox). Custom form definitions are exported as a rebuild reference document.

StreetSmart

Team Member / Technician

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

User

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart team member and technician records map to Salesforce User. Owner resolution happens by email match — StreetSmart technician email addresses are matched against Salesforce User email. Unmatched technicians are flagged before migration; the team either creates Salesforce User records for them first or assigns their records to a fallback owner so no Case or Task lands without an owner.

StreetSmart

Customer Portal User

maps to

Salesforce Sales Cloud

Contact + Experience Cloud (or Custom Portal Reference)

1:1
Fully supported

StreetSmart customer portal accounts do not have a direct Salesforce equivalent. We map portal user records to Contact with a flag portal_enabled__c and export the portal user list and permission settings as a rebuild reference for Salesforce Experience Cloud or your chosen portal solution. The customer contact data migrates cleanly; the portal access configuration must be rebuilt.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Scheduling and dispatch logic has no Salesforce native equivalent

    StreetSmart stores job scheduling windows, technician assignments, route order, and travel-time calculations as core platform data. Salesforce core Sales Cloud has no native scheduling, dispatch, or route-optimization objects. We map all scheduling data to custom fields on Case and export the scheduling rules as a reference document. Rebuilding dispatch logic in Salesforce requires Salesforce Scheduler (separate license) or an AppExchange field-service app — this is a decision your team makes post-migration and is not automated by FlitStack.

  • Work-order-to-Case mapping requires custom fields for every StreetSmart attribute

    StreetSmart work orders carry dozens of operational fields — service type, scheduling windows, technician ID, route sequence, travel time, signature data, GPS coordinates — that have no Salesforce standard-object equivalents. Every one of these requires a Salesforce custom field (suffix __c) created before migration. We deliver a custom-field manifest listing every required field, its type, and its target object so your Salesforce admin can pre-create the schema before data loads, but the field creation itself is a pre-migration step that your admin must complete in the Salesforce Setup menu.

  • GPS location data on accounts requires Salesforce custom geolocation fields

    StreetSmart captures and stores GPS coordinates for customer locations and job sites. Salesforce Account object has no native geolocation fields — these must be created as custom fields of type Geolocation (Location__Latitude__s and Location__Longitude__s). Geolocation fields work natively with Salesforce Maps and can be used in Einstein Analytics, but only after the custom fields are created and populated during migration. Coordinates stored as plain number fields will not enable map-based features.

  • Customer portal accounts cannot be migrated — they must be rebuilt

    StreetSmart customer portal users and their portal-specific permissions have no equivalent in Salesforce Sales Cloud. Portals in Salesforce are handled by Experience Cloud, which has its own user model, permission sets, and site configuration. We export the StreetSmart portal user list and access settings as a rebuild reference, but Experience Cloud site setup, branding, and access levels must be configured separately after migration. This is not a data migration step — it is a separate implementation project.

  • Electronic signature data requires dual storage approach

    StreetSmart captures electronic signatures for work-order completion. Salesforce has no native signature field. FlitStack migrates signature data in two parts: the signature image or encoded data is stored in a custom Long Text Area field (Signature_Data__c) on Case, and the original image file is re-uploaded as a Salesforce File (ContentVersion) linked to the Case via ContentDocumentLink. This dual approach preserves both the signature content and the file audit trail in Salesforce's Files and Content architecture, but the signature does not render as an inline image in Salesforce without custom Visualforce or Lightning component development.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful StreetSmart to Salesforce Sales Cloud data migration

  1. Audit StreetSmart objects, custom fields, and scheduling data

    We run a discovery export against your StreetSmart instance to inventory all record types — customers, companies, work orders, inventory items, scheduling records, time entries, attachments, and GPS data. We catalog every custom form field, pick-list value, and relationship. This inventory drives the Salesforce custom-field manifest and the object-mapping plan that your Salesforce admin uses to pre-create the schema before migration data loads begin.

  2. Create Salesforce custom fields and prepare schema

    Based on the discovery inventory, FlitStack delivers a custom-field manifest specifying every Salesforce custom field needed (name, type, object, pick-list values, default values). Your Salesforce admin creates these fields in Setup before migration runs. We also map StreetSmart technician records to Salesforce Users via email-match resolution, flagging any technician without a Salesforce User record so your team can create accounts or assign a fallback owner before Case records load.

  3. Load accounts, contacts, and assets before work-order records

    Salesforce requires Accounts to exist before Contacts (AccountId is required on Contact) and Assets to be linked to Accounts before Cases reference them. We sequence the migration so Account records load first, then Contact records with AccountId lookups resolved, then Asset records, then Product2 records for inventory items. This foreign-key ordering ensures no Salesforce validation rule blocks the load because a required lookup record is missing.

  4. Run sample migration with field-level diff on work orders and activities

    A representative slice of StreetSmart records — typically 100–500 covering customers, work orders, activities, and attachments — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff between the StreetSmart source values and the Salesforce destination fields so you can verify that scheduling windows, technician assignments, GPS coordinates, and signature data populated correctly in the custom fields before the full run commits. Any mapping errors are corrected before the production load.

  5. Full migration run with delta-pickup cutover window

    The full data migration runs using Salesforce Bulk API 2.0 for high-volume record loads and REST API for incremental updates. A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any StreetSmart records modified or created during the cutover so Salesforce reflects the final StreetSmart state at go-live. All operations are logged in an audit trail. One-click rollback is available if post-migration reconciliation identifies missing records or mapping errors that require re-running the migration.

Strengths

  • Real-time field data sync pushes job status, location, and signatures to the back office without manual re-entry.
  • Mobile app consolidates dispatch, status updates, photo capture, and signatures into one technician interface.
  • Dispatcher scheduling and route optimisation based on technician skill, location, and availability.
  • Pre-built integrations with mainstream ERP and accounting tools for invoicing and payroll handoff.
  • Approachable feature set for small-to-mid field-service shops that find enterprise FSM platforms too heavy.

Weaknesses

  • Integration ecosystem is narrow beyond mainstream ERP connectors; niche back-office tools need custom development.
  • Built-in workflow and form builder is inflexible for multi-step approval chains and non-standard service processes.
  • Reporting and analytics dashboards lack the depth needed for technician utilisation, SLA, and revenue attribution.
  • Customer-support response time is cited as inconsistent, particularly when integrations break after platform updates.
  • Limited public review and community footprint vs Jobber, Housecall Pro, or ServiceTitan, complicating buyer due diligence.

Strengths

  • Largest enterprise app ecosystem in CRM with 5,000+ AppExchange integrations covering nearly every vertical workflow.
  • Native Einstein AI delivers lead scoring, opportunity insights, and predictive forecasting without a third-party layer.
  • Advanced territory management, multi-currency, and flexible forecasting satisfy complex B2B revenue structures.
  • Deep platform extensibility: Custom Objects, Apex, Flow, and the Metadata API allow full schema customization.
  • Well-documented REST API, Bulk API, and Composite API with published rate limits for programmatic migration.

Weaknesses

  • Pricing model is layered and opaque in practice: per-seat fees plus storage overages, add-on subscriptions, and annual uplifts compound to 30–40% above sticker price.
  • Workflow Rules and Process Builder are deprecated, forcing all orgs onto Salesforce Flow — a migration task that catches many teams by surprise.
  • Steep administrative complexity: meaningful configuration requires a dedicated Salesforce admin or consultant.
  • API rate limits are edition-gated (100k/day base for Enterprise) and easily exhausted by large historical imports without throttling.
  • Data export is exportable via Data Loader but preserving relationship integrity across 30+ objects requires careful ETL sequencing.

Most StreetSmart to Salesforce Sales Cloud migrations complete in 48–72 hours of clock time for under 50,000 records when the Salesforce custom fields have been pre-created. Larger setups with 500,000+ records, multiple inventory item types, and extensive custom form fields extend to 5–7 days. The longest pre-migration step is creating Salesforce custom fields for work-order attributes, scheduling data, and GPS coordinates — this typically takes your Salesforce admin 1–3 days in a sandbox before production migration runs.
