Overview
Field Harmony organizes field service operations around work orders, customers, locations, assets, and parts — a schema optimized for dispatch, routing, and job completion. Monday CRM replaces that model with monday.com's Work OS: workspaces containing boards, groups, and items that represent leads, deals, contacts, and activities. There is no native field-service module in Monday CRM, so the migration must translate dispatch-oriented records into CRM-compatible structures. We map Field Harmony work orders to Monday deal items, customers to contact items, and locations plus assets to separate boards linked by monday.com's Connect Boards column or item relations. Parts and inventory require a dedicated Items board since Monday has no native inventory tracking. Multi-entity relationships (work order → location → asset → customer) are preserved as cross-board item links, which require pre-migration board setup before data can reference them. We use Monday's GraphQL API for all write operations, respecting per-plan daily call limits (1,000 for Basic/Standard, 10,000 for Pro, 25,000 for Enterprise). Large exports from Field Harmony may take up to 24 hours via their export function, which affects the overall project timeline. Workflows, route-optimization rules, and dispatch automations do not migrate — Monday's automation builder can reproduce simple triggers, but anything involving GPS routing or real-time technician dispatch has no Monday equivalent and must be redesigned.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Field Harmony object lands in monday CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Field Harmony
Customer
monday CRM
Contact Item (Contacts board)
1:1Field Harmony customer records map directly to Monday contact items in a dedicated Contacts board. The customer's name, email, phone, and address fields translate to corresponding text/email/phone/address column types in Monday. Owner assignment in Monday resolves by email match against monday.com workspace members.
Field Harmony
Company
monday CRM
Organization Item (Organizations board)
1:1Field Harmony company records map to Monday organization items. Monday CRM's native Organizations board accepts company name, domain, industry, employee count, and annual revenue as standard columns. If Field Harmony stores a company hierarchy (parent/child), the parent reference maps as a Connect Boards column pointing to the parent organization item.
Field Harmony
Location
monday CRM
Item (Locations board)
1:1Field Harmony location records — address, GPS coordinates, site contact — have no native Monday CRM equivalent. We create a separate Locations board with custom columns for address, latitude/longitude, site contact name, and site contact phone. Locations are linked to their parent customer or organization via Connect Boards columns.
Field Harmony
Asset
monday CRM
Item (Assets board)
1:1Field Harmony asset records — equipment type, model, serial number, installation date, service history — have no Monday CRM native object. We create an Assets board with custom columns matching each asset field and link assets back to their owning Location via Connect Boards. Service history from Field Harmony becomes subitems or linked items within the asset record.
Field Harmony
Work Order
monday CRM
Deal Item (Deals board)
1:1Field Harmony work orders are the core migration object. Each work order maps to a deal item in Monday's Deals board. Work order fields are decomposed: service type, job description, and status map to custom columns; total job value maps to the native monetary column; scheduled date maps to a date column; technician assignment maps to the person column. The original Field Harmony work order number is stored as Source_Work_Order_ID__c for traceability.
Field Harmony
Work Order Line Item / Part Used
monday CRM
Subitem (within Deal Item)
1:manyField Harmony work order line items — parts used, labor hours, and materials — do not map to any native Monday CRM object. Each line item becomes a subitem attached to the parent deal item in Monday. Subitem columns include item description, quantity, unit price, and total cost. Labor line items use a separate subitem type with hours and hourly rate columns.
Field Harmony
Work Order → Location Link
monday CRM
Connect Boards / Item Relations
1:1Field Harmony natively links work orders to locations in a normalized relational model. In Monday CRM this becomes a Connect Boards column on the Deal item pointing to the corresponding Location item. The migration plan defines these links before data load so referential integrity is maintained. Circular or missing links are flagged for manual resolution before the migration run.
Field Harmony
Work Order → Asset Link
monday CRM
Connect Boards / Item Relations
1:1Field Harmony links work orders to the specific asset serviced. This translates to a Connect Boards column on the Deal item referencing the relevant Asset item. Where multiple assets appear on one work order, multiple link columns or sub-item references are created. Your team decides whether to display all asset links on the deal or collapse to a primary asset.
Field Harmony
Work Order → Customer Link
monday CRM
Connect Boards / Item Relations
1:1Field Harmony associates each work order with a customer account. In Monday CRM the Deal item links via Connect Boards to the Contact item representing that customer. If the contact belongs to an Organization board item, the deal also links to the organization for reporting rollup — this requires both links configured in the migration schema plan.
Field Harmony
Technician / Staff
monday CRM
Person Column / User (Monday workspace member)
1:1Field Harmony technician and staff records map to Monday workspace members assigned via the person column on Deal and Work Order items. Resolution is by email match — if a Field Harmony technician email matches a monday.com workspace user, the person column is populated directly. Unmatched technicians are flagged and assigned to a fallback owner before migration commits.
Field Harmony
Attachment / File
monday CRM
Files (Monday native file upload)
1:1Field Harmony file attachments on work orders — photos, signed forms, equipment diagrams — are downloaded and re-uploaded as Monday Files linked to the corresponding deal or subitem. Monday's 250MB per file limit accommodates most field service documents. Files exceeding this limit are stored in a linked Google Drive or SharePoint location referenced by a URL column.
Field Harmony
Schedule / Dispatch Log
monday CRM
Timeline Column / Date Columns
1:1Field Harmony dispatch logs and scheduling data — appointment windows, dispatch times, travel time — have no native Monday CRM equivalent. We create custom date columns (Scheduled Start, Scheduled End, Dispatched At, Completed At) on deal items and a timeline column for visual scheduling. Real-time routing logic from Field Harmony cannot be replicated in Monday; teams must adopt manual or Zapier-based scheduling workflows post-migration.

Migration approach
Discover Field Harmony data model and export structure
FlitStack AI reviews your Field Harmony export — work orders, customers, locations, assets, parts, and any custom fields — to map the exact object graph. We confirm export completeness, flag missing relationships (orphaned locations, unmatched asset references), and identify duplicate records that need deduplication before Monday lands them. This phase produces the Field Harmony Data Assessment Report and the Monday Board Architecture Plan that defines all target boards, columns, and Connect Boards link types before any data moves.
Configure Monday boards, columns, and Connect Boards links
Before data can reference cross-board relationships, your Monday admin creates the Locations board, Assets board, and Organizations board with the correct column types. FlitStack AI delivers a column specification document that maps every Field Harmony field to its Monday column type and marks Connect Boards columns with their target board. We validate the schema by creating a test contact, location, asset, and deal item and confirming that all cross-board links resolve correctly before the migration run.
Resolve owner and user mappings by email
Field Harmony technician and staff IDs resolve to Monday workspace members by email match. We generate a User Mapping Report listing every Field Harmony technician with a matched monday.com user and every technician with no match. Unmatched users are assigned to a fallback owner or flagged for your team to invite them to the Monday workspace before migration day. No deal item or work-order item migrates without a confirmed Monday assignee.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 200–500 items across deals, contacts, locations, and assets — migrates first using Monday's GraphQL API with rate-limit pacing. We generate a field-level diff report comparing source Field Harmony values to destination Monday item values for every column. You verify status mapping, service-type dropdown population, Connect Boards link resolution, and owner assignment before the full run commits. Sample migration results also confirm the batch pacing needed to stay within your plan's daily API call limit.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full migration runs against the Monday workspace, writing records in dependency order: Organizations → Contacts → Locations → Assets → Deals → Subitems. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) captures any Field Harmony records created or modified during the cutover window. FlitStack AI uses Monday's API audit responses to confirm every write and generates a Migration Completion Report listing record counts, link resolution rates, and any records that failed to migrate with error details. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation reveals systematic data issues.
