Overview
Moving from Total Control Pro to Twenty CRM is a domain-crossing migration: the source is a manufacturing MRP platform and the destination is a sales CRM. The primary data that maps cleanly is customer and supplier records, which migrate to Twenty CRM Companies and Contacts. Products, Work Orders, Bills of Materials, and Quality Checks migrate as custom objects that your team defines in Twenty CRM using the /metadata API before data import begins. The migration is constrained by Total Control Pro's lack of a documented public API; all source extraction runs through scoped CSV exports from the UI or through direct database queries coordinated with the vendor. We sequence exports by dependency order, validate BOM revision history against your team's confirmation of the active revision at cutoff, and deliver MIM KPI time-series as a structured CSV alongside transactional records. Workflows, automation rules, and integration configurations from Total Control Pro do not migrate; we deliver a written requirements document for rebuilding these in Twenty CRM.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Total Control Pro object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Total Control Pro
Customer
Twenty CRM
Company + Contact
1:manyTotal Control Pro customer records map to Twenty CRM Company records for the organization and Contact records for individual points of contact. The customer's company name, billing address, and account terms migrate to Company. Named contacts (sales, purchasing, quality contacts per customer) migrate as linked Contact records with the Company as the parent. We use the customer account number as the dedupe key and flag duplicate company names for resolution before import.
Total Control Pro
Supplier
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1Total Control Pro supplier records map to Twenty CRM Company records with a Company Type of 'Supplier' or 'Vendor' to distinguish from customer accounts. Supplier part supply links, lead times, and purchase item assignments migrate as custom fields on the Company or as a linked Custom Object for part-supplier relationships if the customer's data volume warrants it.
Total Control Pro
Product
Twenty CRM
Product or Custom Object
1:1Total Control Pro product definitions (part numbers, descriptions, unit of measure) map to Twenty CRM Product if the customer's deployment uses the Products module, or to a Custom Object (e.g., 'Part Number') if the CRM is used to track manufacturing items rather than for sales quoting. We validate part numbers against the destination item list and flag duplicates for resolution.
Total Control Pro
Work Order
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (WorkOrder)
1:1Total Control Pro Work Orders migrate to a Twenty CRM custom object named WorkOrder (or equivalent per customer naming) defined via the /metadata API before import. The custom object includes fields for Work Order number, status, assigned operations, and timestamps. Operational history including any manual overrides logged by shop-floor staff migrate as activity records linked to the WorkOrder custom object. We sequence Work Orders by creation date to preserve the production timeline.
Total Control Pro
Bill of Materials
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (BillOfMaterials) + Product links
1:manyTotal Control Pro BOMs with multi-level structures and revision numbers migrate to a Twenty CRM custom object BillOfMaterials. We identify the active BOM revision as of migration cutoff by querying the most recent approved revision per product and confirm it with your team during the discovery call. Component part numbers map to destination Product or Part Number records, and the BOM structure (parent-component relationships) migrates as a nested custom object or as JSON-serialized component list depending on the complexity. We flag BOM revision histories for manual review if the customer requires historical versions preserved.
Total Control Pro
Inventory
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (InventorySnapshot)
1:1Current stock levels, bin locations, and lot numbers migrate as a snapshot to a Twenty CRM custom object InventorySnapshot. Live inventory movements during the migration window are queued and replayed post-cutover to avoid discrepancy. If the customer requires ongoing inventory tracking in the CRM, we configure a scheduled update mechanism or recommend a dedicated inventory management integration post-migration.
Total Control Pro
Production Schedule
Twenty CRM
Task or Custom Object (ProductionRun)
1:1Production scheduling data including operation sequences and due dates maps to Twenty CRM Task records (if treated as operational activities) or to a custom object ProductionRun (if a richer schema is required). We flag any constraint flags or priority overrides as custom fields on the migrated records. Scheduling data is imported after Work Orders to preserve the parent-child relationship.
Total Control Pro
Quality Check
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (QualityCheck)
1:1Inspection results and non-conformance records migrate as linked child records under their parent Work Order custom object in Twenty CRM. Each Quality Check record carries the inspection date, result (pass/fail/non-conformance), and any linked non-conformance notes. We resolve the parent Work Order reference by Work Order number lookup during import.
Total Control Pro
Manufacturing Intelligence KPIs
Twenty CRM
Custom Object (MIMetrics)
1:1MIM-derived KPIs (OEE, cycle time, scrap rates) stored as time-series in Total Control Pro migrate to a Twenty CRM custom object MIMetrics with date-bounded rows. We chunk the export into date-bounded batches to avoid export timeouts and normalize the data into a flat row format that maps to the custom object's fields. If the customer's BI or reporting tool is available, we deliver the data as a supplementary CSV alongside the transactional migration.
Total Control Pro
Custom Fields
Twenty CRM
Custom Fields on mapped objects
lossyTotal Control Pro user-defined fields added during implementation migrate to Twenty CRM custom fields on the equivalent mapped object. We enumerate all custom fields during the discovery call, identify their data types, and map them to the appropriate Twenty CRM field type (text, number, date, picklist, etc.). Custom field metadata is applied before record import so that data lands in the correct fields on first load.
Total Control Pro
Customer
Twenty CRM
Task (Account Management)
1:1Customer account management activities from Total Control Pro (review meetings, contract renewals, QBRs) migrate as Twenty CRM Task records linked to the Company record. We preserve the original activity date for timeline ordering and flag any tasks without a resolved parent Company for manual assignment post-import.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
Total Control Pro gotchas
No documented public API for data export
BOM revision history requires explicit scoping
Manufacturing Intelligence Module KPIs stored as opaque time-series
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and vendor coordination letter
We audit Total Control Pro across all modules with data to migrate: Customers, Suppliers, Products, Work Orders, Bills of Materials, Inventory, Production Schedules, Quality Checks, and MIM KPIs. We issue a vendor coordination letter requesting database access or scoped CSV export permissions. We inventory custom fields, BOM structures, and any MIM KPI export formats available. We pair this with a Twenty CRM environment review: cloud trial, self-hosted instance, or existing deployment. The discovery output is a written migration scope, a vendor export schedule, and a Twenty CRM schema design document.
Twenty CRM custom object schema design
We design the destination schema in Twenty CRM using the /metadata API. This includes provisioning custom objects for WorkOrder, BillOfMaterials, QualityCheck, InventorySnapshot, MIMetrics, and any supplier-part relationship objects. We define all custom fields with appropriate types, establish lookup relationships to Companies (for Work Orders linked to customers) and Products (for BOM components), and configure picklist values for status and result fields. Schema is validated in a staging environment before production migration begins.
CSV extraction sequencing and data validation
We run CSV extraction in dependency order: master data first (Customers, Suppliers, Products), then transactional data (Work Orders, BOMs, Production Schedules), then quality and KPI data. Each export is validated against row counts and spot-checked against the source for field completeness. Any BOM revision questions are escalated to your team for confirmation of the active revision at cutoff. Data quality issues (duplicate part numbers, missing customer addresses, incomplete Work Order history) are documented in a cleansing report for your team to resolve before import.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Twenty CRM staging or sandbox environment using production-like data volume. Your team reconciles record counts (Companies, Contacts, WorkOrders, BOMs, etc.), spot-checks 25-50 records against the Total Control Pro source, and signs off the schema and mapping before production migration begins. Any BOM mapping corrections, custom field type mismatches, or lookup resolution failures are addressed here.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies (from Customers and Suppliers), Contacts (from customer contacts), Products, BOM custom objects, Work Order custom objects, Production Run tasks, Quality Check records, Inventory snapshots, and MIM KPI time-series data. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report before the next phase begins. We queue any inventory movements occurring during the migration window and replay them post-cutover to avoid discrepancy.
Cutover, validation, and integration rebuild handoff
We freeze writes to Total Control Pro during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Twenty CRM as the system of record for CRM functions. We deliver the integration and automation requirements document to your team. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve any reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Total Control Pro integrations or automations as Twenty CRM workflows inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement.
