Overview
Trade Service Pro was a field-service management platform covering CRM, scheduling, estimates, proposals, invoices, and timesheets. Since TSP has closed its doors, customers with historical data need a structured path to extract and relocate that information. HubSpot's CRM becomes the destination — storing customer and company data as Contacts and Companies, estimates and proposals as Deals, and field-service-specific records as HubSpot custom objects. We map TSP customers to HubSpot Contacts and Companies, TSP estimates and proposals to HubSpot Deals with a configured pipeline matching TSP's estimate statuses, and TSP work orders, service records, and schedules to custom objects that preserve technician assignments, service addresses, and line-item detail. TSP's custom fields (service_category, work_order_type, technician_id) map to HubSpot custom properties, which you configure in HubSpot's Property Settings under your account. TSP's automations and workflow rules do not migrate — they must be rebuilt in HubSpot's Automation or Breeze tools. TSP's custom forms and intake records migrate as structured custom-object data. Migration runs against TSP's export files or backup data, since live API access is no longer available. We sequence the migration so custom objects resolve foreign-key relationships correctly, run a sample migration first to verify field-level accuracy, and apply a delta-pickup window for any records created during the cutover before your team goes live in HubSpot.
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 Trade Service Pro object lands in HubSpot, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Customer
HubSpot
HubSpot Contact + Company
1:1TSP customers map directly to HubSpot Contacts (person-level records) and HubSpot Companies (business-level records). When a TSP customer record has an associated business name, we create both a Contact and a Company and link them via the Company Association. TSP customer notes and custom fields migrate as HubSpot contact properties and custom properties respectively.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Estimate / Proposal
HubSpot
HubSpot Deal
1:1TSP estimates and proposals map to HubSpot Deals. The estimate name becomes the Deal name, the estimated value becomes Deal Amount, and the TSP status (Pending, Sent, Accepted, Declined) maps to a configured HubSpot pipeline stage. We preserve the original estimate create date and TSP estimate ID for traceability.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Work Order
HubSpot
HubSpot Work_Order__c (Custom Object)
1:1TSP work orders have no HubSpot native equivalent — they migrate as a custom object named Work_Order__c under HubSpot Enterprise or Service Hub Starter. The custom object stores work order number, status, type, service address, assigned technician, scheduled date, and line items for materials and labor. The TSP customer and contact link as lookup associations in HubSpot.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Schedule / Dispatch Record
HubSpot
HubSpot Schedule__c (Custom Object)
1:1TSP scheduling records track technician, job date and time, duration, job type, and job address. We create a Schedule__c custom object in HubSpot to hold these records with the same field structure. The schedule links to the associated Work_Order__c custom object and the Contact record for the customer being served.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Estimate Line Item
HubSpot
HubSpot Deal Line Item
1:1TSP line items on estimates — service descriptions, quantities, unit prices, and tax — migrate as HubSpot Deal Line Items attached to the corresponding Deal. The line-item name, quantity, and unit price map directly. HubSpot supports line items on Deals at all Sales Hub tiers.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Invoice
HubSpot
HubSpot Invoice__c (Custom Object)
1:1TSP invoices carry invoice number, total amount, payment status, and payment method. Since HubSpot has no native invoice object in the CRM layer, we create an Invoice__c custom object preserving invoice number, contact association, line items, total, status, and payment date. Payment status migrates as a pick-list custom property.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Custom Form / Intake Record
HubSpot
HubSpot Intake__c (Custom Object)
1:1TSP intake forms captured lead source, service type, job size, and urgency. We create an Intake__c custom object in HubSpot that stores the form name, submission date, associated contact, and key intake field values as custom properties. The intake record links to the contact created from the lead record.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Activity (Call, Note, Message)
HubSpot
HubSpot Engagement (Call, Note, Meeting)
1:1TSP activity records — phone calls, notes, and messages attached to customers or work orders — map to HubSpot Engagements. Calls become HubSpot Calls with subject, body, and duration. Notes become HubSpot Notes attached to the relevant Contact or Deal. Original timestamps and the technician or user who logged the activity are preserved.
Trade Service Pro
TSP User / Technician
HubSpot
HubSpot User
1:1TSP user and technician accounts map to HubSpot Users by email address. TSP user names become HubSpot user full names. TSP user roles and permissions do not migrate — HubSpot roles and permissions are configured separately in HubSpot Settings under Users & Teams.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Pricebook / Service Catalog
HubSpot
HubSpot Deal Line Item Product
1:1TSP service catalog entries — service name, description, and standard rate — migrate as HubSpot Products. When TSP line items reference a pricebook entry, we link the HubSpot Deal Line Item to the corresponding HubSpot Product by name match. Unit prices and quantities map directly from the pricebook entry to the line item.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Timesheet Record
HubSpot
HubSpot Timesheet__c (Custom Object)
1:1TSP timesheet entries track clock-in, clock-out, break duration, and total hours per technician per day. We create a Timesheet__c custom object in HubSpot linked to the TSP technician's HubSpot User record and the associated Work_Order__c or Schedule__c custom object. Total labor cost and labor rate fields preserve the financial context.
Trade Service Pro
TSP Workflow / Automation
HubSpot
None — documented for rebuild
1:1TSP automations (dispatch triggers, payment reminders, status-change notifications) do not migrate to HubSpot. We export a structured reference document listing each TSP workflow's trigger, condition, and action so your HubSpot admin can rebuild equivalent automations in HubSpot's Automation or Breeze tools. This is manual work outside the data migration scope.

Migration approach
Audit available TSP data and define the export scope
We begin every Trade Service Pro migration by reviewing the available TSP data exports — CSV files, database backups, or structured dumps your team retained. We assess record counts per object (customers, companies, estimates, work orders, invoices, schedules, timesheets), field completeness, and any formatting issues in the export files. If multiple export formats exist, we identify the most complete and structurally consistent source. We then produce a data inventory document listing every object, record count, and field count, plus any gaps we identify. This step confirms what can migrate and what requires alternative preservation (archival export for records with no HubSpot destination).
Configure HubSpot custom objects and property mappings
Before migrating data, your HubSpot admin (or our team working in your HubSpot portal) creates the custom objects needed for TSP field-service records: Work_Order__c, Schedule__c, Timesheet__c, and Invoice__c. We deliver a detailed schema setup document listing every custom object, its fields, field types (text, number, datetime, pick-list), and whether each field is required or optional. We also produce a custom property mapping sheet for TSP customer, company, and estimate custom fields that will become HubSpot contact, company, and deal properties. HubSpot's Settings interface is used for all property and custom object creation — no API calls are needed for schema setup.
Run a sample migration with field-level verification
We migrate a representative sample of 50–200 TSP records covering customers, companies, estimates, work orders, and activities before running the full migration. The sample validates every field mapping, confirms custom object associations resolve correctly (e.g., work orders link to the right contacts and schedules), and checks that TSP timestamps appear as expected in HubSpot. We generate a field-level diff report comparing source values against the migrated HubSpot records so you can verify accuracy before committing to the full run. Sample findings are incorporated into the final mapping before the production migration proceeds.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full migration runs against the confirmed export files and HubSpot API. We migrate all customers, companies, estimates, work orders, schedules, timesheets, invoices, and activities in the sequence that resolves foreign-key dependencies — companies first, then contacts linked to companies, then estimates linked to contacts, then custom objects linked to the appropriate contacts and deals. After the primary migration completes, a delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any records that were exported or modified after the initial extraction. All operations are logged in a migration audit file for reconciliation. If reconciliation reveals missing records, we run a targeted re-migration of the affected object types before go-live.
Deliver workflow rebuild reference and go-live support
After migration, we deliver the workflow reference document listing every TSP automation in plain-language format (trigger event, conditions, actions). Your HubSpot admin uses this document to rebuild equivalent automations in HubSpot's Automation or Breeze tools. We also deliver a post-migration data summary showing record counts per object, any fields that were archived rather than migrated due to HubSpot property limits, and a list of any TSP records that could not be matched to a HubSpot destination. FlitStack AI remains available for a 48-hour post-go-live window to address any data discrepancies identified after your team begins working in HubSpot.
