Migrate from Gripp to monday CRM

Gripp Assets migrate as Items in a dedicated Monday.com board (typically named Equipment or Assets). Asset metadata — type, location, status, serial number, and QR code identifier — maps to custom columns on the Item. Asset records are the primary entity; they must land before any dependent sub-items (Issues, Inspections) because sub-items in Monday.com require a parent Item reference. We preserve the original Gripp asset ID as a read-only custom column for reconciliation and cross-reference.

Gripp Issues migrate as Sub-items attached to their parent Asset Item in Monday.com. Each Sub-item inherits the Issue body, status (Open, In Progress, Resolved, Closed), priority (Low, Medium, High, Critical), and reporter attribution. The parent Asset Item is resolved via the Gripp asset_id reference at migration time. Monday.com Sub-items support their own custom fields, allowing priority and status to be replicated as sub-item-level columns. Note that Monday.com Sub-items are flat, not nested; multi-level issue threads from Gripp flatten into a single Sub-item level.

Gripp Inspections migrate as structured custom fields on the Asset Item or as a separate Sub-item with a checkbox or number column for each checklist step. Completion date, inspector name, and overall pass/fail result migrate to date and person columns. The inspection checklist items map to a Monday.com Checklist column or to individual checkbox columns depending on the checklist length. Very long or complex inspection templates may require a separate board for auditability; we recommend this during scoping for customers with regulatory inspection requirements.

Gripp Service Intervals define recurring maintenance schedules tied to Assets — mileage-based service, seasonal checks, oil changes. Monday.com has no native recurring-schedule object, so we map interval definitions and next-due dates to a Due Date or End Date column on the Asset Item, and configure a Monday.com automation rule (When Date arrives, create Task and notify Owner) to approximate the reminder function. The recurring logic (monthly, quarterly, mileage-triggered) is documented in a Service Interval Configuration sheet we deliver alongside the migrated data.

Gripp Teams represent organization members and their roles. Team members migrate to Monday.com Users by email match. Gripp role assignments (Admin, Manager, Technician, Viewer) map to Monday.com Workspace roles. User-to-asset assignments in Gripp are preserved as an Owner column or Group assignment on the Asset Item in Monday.com. Any Gripp user without a matching Monday.com seat is held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before production migration.

Gripp Conversations are threaded team messages attached to Assets or Issues. Monday.com does not have a threaded messaging model; we migrate conversation messages as Item Updates with author attribution and timestamp preserved. Thread structure from Gripp is lost — messages post in chronological order as flat Updates rather than nested threads. Customers with active team messaging workflows attached to assets should plan to migrate to a dedicated tool (Slack, Microsoft Teams) for ongoing conversations and use Monday.com Updates solely for asset-level activity context.

Gripp Assets carry QR code identifiers used for field scanning and asset lookup. We migrate the QR code value as a read-only custom text column on the Monday.com Asset Item. We do not migrate the QR code image files themselves; these are delivered as a separate file manifest for the customer's admin to re-attach or re-link after migration if the new workflow requires QR-code scanning.

Gripp Assets may carry attached photos, manuals, or equipment images. Monday.com Items support file attachments, but bulk file migration from Gripp requires the Gripp API to return attachment URLs that we then re-upload to Monday.com Items. We flag any Gripp asset with more than five attachments for pre-migration review so that file handling can be budgeted and scoped. File size limits on Monday.com plan tiers apply; Starter and Basic plans cap file storage per seat.
