Overview
Moving from Flexie to Monday.com CRM is a schema translation, not a record copy. Flexie operates as a workforce management platform built around Workers, Shifts, and Venues for shift-based service industries; Monday.com CRM uses People, Companies, Deals, and Boards with a column-based structure. We map Flexie's Worker records to Monday.com People, Venue records to Companies, and Shift Assignments to Deals, using the worker-to-venue relationship as the primary linking key. Shift status (open, filled, cancelled) maps to Deal stage or a custom status column, and shift timestamps become date-range fields on the Deal. Entity Forms in Flexie do not have a direct Monday.com equivalent; we document form structure for manual rebuild as either Monday.com Forms or a connected form tool. Workflows and automations built in Flexie do not migrate as code — we deliver a written inventory of each automation's trigger and action logic for the customer's team to rebuild using Monday.com's Automations or Integrations. Document metadata migrates; file hosting requires separate transfer via the customer's cloud storage.
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 Flexie 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.
Flexie
Worker
monday CRM
Person
1:1Flexie Worker records map to Monday.com People as the primary person entity. Name, email, phone, employment status, and availability windows migrate as standard Person fields. Custom properties per worker require explicit mapping to Monday.com Person fields; any custom picklist values with character limits that exceed Monday.com's column constraints are flagged during scoping and resolved in the transformation layer before import.
Flexie
Venue
monday CRM
Company
1:1Flexie Venues map to Monday.com Companies. Address, location details, venue-level custom fields, and operational settings migrate to the Company record. Venue name becomes the Company name. We preserve the venue identifier as a custom field (flexie_venue_id__c) to maintain the relationship back to the source system for audit and reconciliation purposes.
Flexie
Shift Assignment
monday CRM
Deal
1:manyEach Flexie Shift Assignment represents a worker assigned to a shift at a venue. We map these to Monday.com Deals, where the Deal is linked to the assigned Worker (as Person) and the Venue (as Company). Shift start and end timestamps become Deal date range columns. Shift status (open, filled, cancelled) maps to either Deal stage or a custom Status column value set, and we document the mapping matrix during scoping so the customer's admin confirms the target status values before migration.
Flexie
Shift
monday CRM
Deal subitems or timeline columns
lossyFlexie Shifts (the shift template or instance) carry start time, end time, role type, and coverage requirements. We map these as date-range columns and custom text or number columns on the Deal. Open shifts (unfilled at migration time) are flagged as a separate batch for the customer to review before import; unfilled shift records may be imported as Deals with no assigned Person link, which requires confirmation of the customer's preferred handling.
Flexie
Entity Forms
monday CRM
Forms or Items
lossyFlexie Entity Forms serve as both data entry points and workflow triggers. Monday.com does not have a direct equivalent to entity forms as workflow triggers. We document the structure of each active Flexie Entity Form (field list, submission targets, and any associated workflow) and recommend either Monday.com Forms (for data capture) or rebuilding the logic as Monday.com Automations. Form submission records that represent historical data may need to be imported as Items on a dedicated board.
Flexie
Custom Properties
monday CRM
Person Fields, Company Fields, or Column Fields
1:1Flexie supports custom fields on Workers, Venues, Shifts, and Shift Assignments with schemas that vary per account. We extract the live schema during discovery via Flexie's API, generate an explicit field map, and flag any picklist values that exceed Monday.com's character or format limits. Custom properties with relational dependencies (e.g., a property referencing another Worker's ID) are resolved at migration time through the lookup table built during discovery.
Flexie
Document
monday CRM
File attachments or external links
lossyDocuments attached to Flexie Workers, Venues, or Shifts are extracted as file metadata (filename, file type, attached record reference). Actual file content (PDFs, images, compliance documents) requires a separate file transfer step; we provide a manifest of all document URLs and attach them as links in the destination record rather than hosting them inside Monday.com's file storage.
Flexie
Workflow
monday CRM
Automation (rebuild required)
1:1Flexie Workflows built from Entity Form triggers and conditional actions are platform-native automation sequences that do not have a direct equivalent in Monday.com. We do not migrate Workflows as code. During discovery, we document every active Flexie Workflow (trigger type, conditions, actions, and sequence logic) in a written inventory that the customer's team uses to rebuild equivalent Automations in Monday.com using the Automations center or Integrations with tools like Zapier or Make.

Migration approach
Discovery and schema extraction
We extract the live Flexie schema via API, including all Worker fields, Venue fields, Shift fields, Shift Assignment fields, Entity Form definitions, and custom property configurations. We map each object to its Monday.com equivalent (Person, Company, Deal) and identify the custom field gaps that require either native Monday.com column mapping or a custom column type built via the Monday.com developer API. We document the Flexie contract renewal date to plan the cutover window and identify any exit fee exposure.
Relationship graph and lookup table construction
We build a lookup table that maps every Flexie Worker ID to its corresponding Monday.com Person ID and every Flexie Venue ID to its corresponding Monday.com Company ID. This lookup table is the critical path for Deal linking — every Shift Assignment import requires both the Worker and Venue links resolved before Deal insert. We also build the shift-status mapping matrix, confirming Monday.com column values with the customer's admin before the transform phase begins.
Monday.com destination configuration
We configure the Monday.com destination workspace: creating the People board (or verifying the default People board), creating Company records from Flexie Venues, creating the Deals board with the required columns (date ranges, status, worker link, venue link), and setting up any custom columns for Flexie custom properties that have a native Monday.com equivalent. Monday.com Automations equivalents are documented for the customer's admin to rebuild post-migration; we do not configure Automations inside the migration scope.
Data cleansing and transformation
We deduplicate Worker records (matching on email and name), standardize date formats to Monday.com's accepted format (ISO 8601), remap shift status values per the agreed matrix, remove or archive test records and obsolete shifts, and apply character limits to picklist values that exceed Monday.com column constraints. Shift Assignments with missing Worker or Venue references are flagged as a separate batch for the customer's admin to resolve before import.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Companies (from Flexie Venues) first, then People (from Flexie Workers), then Deals (from Flexie Shift Assignments) with Person and Company links resolved via the lookup table. Document metadata is imported as a separate batch with external links attached to the corresponding Person or Company record. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report showing records processed, records skipped, and records held in the reconciliation queue before the next phase begins.
Cutover, validation, and Workflow rebuild handoff
We freeze Flexie writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, and enable Monday.com as the system of record. We deliver the Workflow inventory document to the customer's admin team with a written mapping of each Flexie Workflow trigger and action to its recommended Monday.com Automation equivalent. We support a one-week post-cutover window to resolve any data quality issues reported by the customer's team. Automations, Integrations, and Form rebuilds are outside the standard migration scope.
