Migrate from Traffic Ticket CRM to Zoho CRM

Traffic Ticket CRM custom fields require Zoho custom field creation before data can land

Traffic Ticket CRM stores violation type, fine amount, points assessed, court name, and DPS reference as standard fields on its case object. Zoho CRM has no native fields for these attributes — they must be created as custom fields on the Cases module (Settings → Fields → Create Field) before any case data is imported. If cases are imported before the custom fields exist, Zoho silently drops those column values during CSV import and you lose the data with no error message. FlitStack AI creates all required custom fields via the Zoho Fields API before the first record loads, and we validate that each custom field's data type (text, pick-list, currency, date, integer) matches the source data exactly so no import rows are rejected.

Court-document attachments exceeding 25MB per file have no Zoho CRM native home

Traffic Ticket CRM attachments include citation PDFs, court filings, and scanned correspondence — some of these files exceed Zoho CRM's 25MB per-file attachment limit. Zoho Attachments will reject imports of oversized files silently in some import paths and throw errors in others. We identify every attachment over 25MB during the audit phase and route those files to a Zoho Workdrive folder structure with lookup links stored in a custom field on the associated Case record. This requires Zoho Workdrive to be active on your Zoho tenant; if it is not, we flag it as a pre-migration dependency and advise on the appropriate Zoho One or Workdrive license tier.

Zoho API credit consumption can throttle large bulk imports if not managed

Zoho CRM's credit-based API model (Enterprise edition: 50,000 credits/day + 1,000 credits per user license) means bulk imports consume credits rapidly — a single COQL query with LIMIT 2000 deducts 3 credits, and each record insert deducts 1 credit. For a migration of 50,000 cases, this can consume a meaningful portion of the daily credit budget, causing throttled responses (HTTP 429) that stall imports mid-run. FlitStack AI implements credit-header monitoring (X-API-CREDITS-REMAINING) between batch runs, backs off when credits drop below 20% of the daily limit, and distributes large migrations across off-peak hours to avoid exhausting the budget before the full dataset transfers.

Court-date reminders require Zoho Blueprint reconstruction — native calendar is insufficient

Traffic Ticket CRM includes automated court-date reminders tied to case records — a core workflow for law firm operations. Zoho CRM's native calendar events can store court dates, but automated reminder escalation (days-before notifications, attorney assignment alerts, court clerk email triggers) require Zoho Blueprint (Professional tier and above) or workflow rules. Since automations do not migrate, we deliver a Blueprint reconstruction guide as part of the project that maps each Traffic Ticket CRM reminder rule to its Zoho Blueprint equivalent with step-by-step configuration instructions and screenshots for your Zoho administrator.

Billing and trust-accounting data has no Zoho CRM equivalent and must be handled separately

Traffic Ticket CRM tracks trust-account balances, payment records, and outstanding fines as part of its case records. Zoho CRM has no native trust-accounting or billing module — those functions live in Zoho Books or third-party legal accounting tools. We migrate billing case notes and outstanding-balance fields as read-only custom fields on the Zoho Case for reference, but the full financial history requires a separate migration to Zoho Books or needs to remain accessible in Traffic Ticket CRM exports for compliance purposes. We flag this as a post-migration workflow item in the project closeout report.
