Overview
Urban-Hawks is an AR-enabled field service platform that structures work around technicians, service requests, assets, and on-site visits. HubSpot structures work around contacts, companies, deals, and tickets. The migration carries everything Urban-Hawks stores natively — contacts, companies, work orders, assets, line items, and activity history — into HubSpot's object model, creating a custom object layer for field-service-specific records that have no direct HubSpot equivalent. The harder translation problems are these: Urban-Hawks work orders map to HubSpot tickets by default, but multi-step service processes may need custom objects with multiple lifecycle stages. Asset records in Urban-Hawks have hierarchical relationships (parent equipment, components, service history) that need a custom object with self-referential lookups in HubSpot. Technician profiles in Urban-Hawks are not CRM contacts by default — they become HubSpot users if they need CRM access, or stay as custom object records if they only need reference linkage. Site-visit logs and remote-assistance sessions migrate as HubSpot engagement activities (calls, meetings, notes) with the original timestamps preserved. FlitStack AI runs a test migration against a representative sample of your data before committing the full export. We generate a field-level diff so you can verify asset-to-ticket linkage, technician owner assignment, and work-order-stage mapping before cutover. Delta-pickup captures any records modified during the switchover window.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Urban-Hawks 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.
Urban-Hawks
Contact
HubSpot
Contact
1:1Urban-Hawks customer contacts map directly to HubSpot contacts. Each contact's email, phone, address, and company association transfers. Primary company link becomes the HubSpot contact's company association. Original created dates are preserved as a custom property, and any Urban-Hawks custom contact fields migrate as HubSpot custom properties. Duplicate detection runs on email to avoid re‑creating existing HubSpot contacts.
Urban-Hawks
Company
HubSpot
Company
1:1Urban-Hawks company records (customer sites, service locations) map to HubSpot companies. Parent-child company hierarchies in Urban-Hawks preserve as HubSpot company hierarchies via the parent-company association field. Domain names, industry pick‑list values, and employee counts transfer directly, while any custom company fields become HubSpot custom properties. The mapping ensures that child sites inherit the parent’s HubSpot company record for consistent reporting.
Urban-Hawks
Work Order
HubSpot
Ticket
1:1Urban-Hawks work orders translate to HubSpot tickets by default. The work order status (Scheduled, In Progress, Completed, Cancelled) maps to HubSpot ticket pipeline stages. Each work order's associated contact and asset links transfer as ticket associations. The original work order number becomes the ticket subject prefix for straightforward cross‑reference, and any custom work‑order fields migrate as HubSpot custom properties on the ticket.
Urban-Hawks
Work Order
HubSpot
Deal
many:1If the Urban-Hawks work order carries a billable amount, we create a HubSpot deal alongside the ticket. Work-order line items map to deal line items; deal name derives from work order number and customer. This preserves revenue attribution. The deal stage is set based on the work order status, and the deal is linked to the same HubSpot company and contact records for consolidated reporting.
Urban-Hawks
Asset
HubSpot
Custom Object (Asset__c)
1:1Urban-Hawks asset records have no direct HubSpot equivalent. We create a HubSpot custom object named Asset__c with fields for asset name, serial number, installation date, warranty expiry, and a self-referential Parent_Asset__c lookup for hierarchy. Each asset links to its associated company and contact records.
Urban-Hawks
Technician
HubSpot
User / Custom Object (Technician__c)
1:manyUrban-Hawks technicians who need CRM access become HubSpot users (matched by email). Technicians who only need record linkage (without HubSpot login) migrate as a custom object — Technician__c — with their profile fields, certification records, and service territory preserved. User records inherit the technician’s default role and receive a Sales Lite or Service Hub seat. Unmatched technicians are flagged for admin review and assigned a fallback owner on the ticket.
Urban-Hawks
Service Visit / Site Log
HubSpot
Meeting / Call / Note
1:1Urban-Hawks site-visit logs with technician arrival/departure timestamps migrate as HubSpot meetings. The associated contact and asset are linked via HubSpot's association model. Visit notes and resolution summaries migrate as HubSpot engagement notes. Meeting duration is calculated from arrival and departure times and stored on the meeting record, and the meeting is linked to the corresponding work‑order ticket for full service history.
Urban-Hawks
Line Item (Work Order Parts)
HubSpot
Line Item (on Deal)
1:1Parts and labor line items attached to Urban-Hawks work orders map to HubSpot deal line items. Part numbers, quantities, and unit prices transfer directly. Service labor items need custom product records or a Labor_Service__c custom field on the line item.
Urban-Hawks
AR Remote Assistance Session
HubSpot
Custom Object (AR_Session__c)
1:1Urban-Hawks AR session records — session ID, start/end time, participating technician, remote expert, session notes, and video recording URL — migrate as a custom object in HubSpot. The session links to the associated work order ticket and customer contact. Session duration, annotation count, and resolution outcome are stored as custom fields on AR_Session__c, and the session can link to the related Asset__c if the assistance involved equipment.
Urban-Hawks
Invoice / Payment Record
HubSpot
Custom Object (Invoice__c)
1:1Urban-Hawks invoice records with amounts, payment status, and payment method have no HubSpot equivalent. We create an Invoice__c custom object linked to the associated deal and company. Payment status (Paid, Partial, Overdue) migrates as a pick-list field. Invoice number and due date transfer as custom text and date fields, and each invoice is linked to the deal line items that generated the charge for complete financial traceability.
Urban-Hawks
Attachment / Photo
HubSpot
HubSpot File
1:1Photos and attachments on Urban-Hawks work orders and assets re-upload to HubSpot Files. File associations link back to the relevant ticket, deal, or custom object record. Original file names and upload timestamps are preserved. File size and MIME type are captured in HubSpot file metadata, and the uploaded files are organized in a dedicated HubSpot folder per object type for straightforward retrieval.
Urban-Hawks
Custom Fields (Urban-Hawks)
HubSpot
Custom Properties (HubSpot)
1:1Urban-Hawks custom fields on any object migrate as HubSpot custom properties. Field types are translated: Urban-Hawks pick‑lists become HubSpot option sets; date fields map to HubSpot date properties; numeric fields map to HubSpot number properties. Multi‑select pick‑lists become HubSpot multi‑checkbox or multi‑select fields, and long‑text areas map to HubSpot text areas. Validation rules such as required fields are preserved where possible, and any dependencies are documented for admin review.

Migration approach
Audit Urban-Hawks data model and design HubSpot custom object schema
FlitStack AI exports a full schema snapshot from Urban-Hawks — standard objects, custom fields, object relationships, and asset hierarchy depth. We compare this against HubSpot's native object model and identify the gap: assets, AR sessions, invoices, and technician profiles that need custom objects. We deliver a HubSpot setup plan specifying the custom object names, field types, and relationship lookups your admin creates before migration begins. This schema plan is a prerequisite — migration cannot validate field mappings until the destination schema exists.
Resolve technician records and owner assignment logic
We pull the technician roster from Urban-Hawks and match by email against your HubSpot user list. Technicians with matching email addresses become HubSpot owners (OwnerId) on work order tickets. Technicians without HubSpot accounts get flagged — your team decides whether to create HubSpot user seats for them or accept them as Technician__c custom object records. No ticket lands without an owner assignment, either a named HubSpot user or a designated fallback.
Migrate companies and contacts first, then assets, then work orders
HubSpot requires Accounts (companies) to exist before Contacts can associate via the primary company lookup, and it requires Contacts and Assets to exist before Tickets can link all three. We sequence the migration so company records load first, contacts load second (with company associations resolved), asset hierarchy loads third (parents before children), and work order tickets load last with full association chains intact. AR sessions and invoices attach to their parent tickets after ticket creation.
Run sample migration with field-level diff before full commit
A representative slice — typically 100–300 records spanning contacts, companies, work orders, assets, and a few AR sessions — migrates to a HubSpot staging portal. We generate a field-level diff showing source values alongside destination field values, flagging any truncation (e.g., pick-list values that don't match HubSpot options), missing associations, or empty required fields. You review the diff and approve field mapping adjustments before the full migration runs.
Cut over with delta-pickup window for in-flight records
The full migration exports from Urban-Hawks and loads into HubSpot. During the cutover window (typically 24–48 hours), your team continues working in Urban-Hawks. A delta export captures any records created or modified after the initial export timestamp — work orders, contacts, invoices. FlitStack logs every migration operation in an audit record. If reconciliation fails (record count mismatch, association breaks), one-click rollback reverts the HubSpot load so your team can troubleshoot and re-run without data loss.
