Overview
Moving from Infor CloudSuite CRM to Monday.com CRM is a structural redesign, not a record copy. Infor CRM stores data in a tightly coupled relational schema: Accounts link to Contacts, Opportunities link to Accounts and Sales Periods, and Activities attach to contact records. Monday.com CRM uses a flat board-and-item model where Contacts live on a Board, Deals are Items on that Board, and Activities are either a dedicated column or Items on a linked Activity board. We sequence the load to preserve the Account hierarchy: Accounts first, then Contacts with foreign keys, then Deals, then Activities, then Tickets. Infor-specific custom fields, the Sales Period forecasting schema, and binary attachments require explicit mapping or post-migration setup. Workflows, BPM integrations via Infor ION, and the Outlook export-layer do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of every active automation requiring rebuild in Monday.com's Automation Center or Integrations.
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.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM) 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.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Account
monday CRM
Board (Contacts)
1:1Infor CRM Accounts map to a Monday.com Board with the Account Name stored as the Item Name and company-level fields (SIC code, revenue, employee count, territory) stored as Board columns. Monday.com's Contacts board holds both the Account context and the individual contact records on the same Board. We create the Board structure in Monday.com before any Item import so that the board ID is available for column configuration.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Contact (Sales Contact)
monday CRM
Item (on Contacts Board)
1:1Infor Sales Contacts map to Items on the Monday.com Contacts Board. The Contact's name, role, phone, and email map to native column types (Text, Text, Phone, Email). The Contact's parent Account relationship maps to a Connected Boards column linking the Contact Item to the Account Item on the same Board. We deduplicate on email address during import to address Infor's known Outlook export duplication issue.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Opportunity
monday CRM
Deal Item (on Deals Board or CRM Deals board)
1:1Infor Opportunities map to Deals in Monday.com CRM. Stage, value, probability, and close date migrate to the corresponding Deal column types. The Account lookup resolves to the Account Item in Monday.com via the Connected Boards column. Owner assignment maps to the Person column. We map the Infor opportunity stage to a Monday.com Group representing the pipeline stage.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Lead
monday CRM
Item (on Leads Board or CRM Leads board)
1:1Infor Leads map to Items on a separate Leads Board or the CRM Leads board depending on customer preference. Status, source, and owner migrate to the corresponding columns. Monday.com has no native Lead object equivalent; we implement the Lead board with a Status column (New, Contacted, Qualified, Disqualified) to replicate the Infor lead lifecycle. The customer chooses whether to keep Leads separate from Deals or merge them into the main Deals board.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Activity (Task and Event)
monday CRM
Activity column or Item (on Activity Board)
1:1Infor Activities (calls, meetings, notes, tasks) map to Monday.com's Activity column type (if using the CRM-native Activity timeline) or to Items on a linked Activity Board with a Connected Boards column back to the parent Contact or Deal Item. Activity type, description, date, and owner map to column types. Monday.com's Activity column supports emails, calls, meetings, and notes natively within the CRM board context.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Sales Forecast / Sales Period
monday CRM
Date columns on Deal Item
lossyInfor's Sales Periods are a distinct schema construct organizing forecasts into named date ranges. Monday.com has no native Sales Period equivalent. We decompose each Sales Period into its start and end date boundaries and apply those as date column filters or custom date fields on the Deal Item, preserving the forecast period context. This is an explicit configuration step documented in the field mapping spreadsheet before data load.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Campaign and Campaign Item
monday CRM
Board (Campaigns)
1:1Infor Campaigns map to a Monday.com Board with campaign type, status, start/end dates, and budget as columns. Campaign Items (linking products or contacts to the campaign) map to Items on that Campaign Board, linked via a Connected Boards column to the relevant Contact or Product Item. We preserve the campaign hierarchy during migration.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Product and Price List
monday CRM
Item (on Products Board)
1:1Infor Products map to Items on a Products Board with product name, SKU, and price columns. Complex tiered pricing requires mapping to multiple Price column configurations or creating separate Items per tier. We validate pricing data during the transform step and flag any complex tier structures requiring customer review before final load.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Ticket (Customer Service)
monday CRM
Item (on Service Board)
1:1Infor Tickets map to Items on a dedicated Service Board in Monday.com CRM. Status, priority, assigned agent, and the linked Account/Contact relationship migrate to the corresponding column types. Multi-line ticket conversations migrate as Updates on the Item or as Items on a linked sub-board, depending on conversation complexity.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Attachment
monday CRM
File (external store) with Link column
lossyMonday.com CRM does not support binary attachments natively. We export Infor CRM attachments to a cloud file store (S3, SharePoint, or Google Drive) and create a Link column on the parent Item pointing to the file URL. The customer approves the file store destination during scoping. This is a reference-based migration, not native attachment migration.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Custom Field
monday CRM
Column (native column type)
lossyInfor CRM user-defined custom fields (picklists, dates, lookups) map to Monday.com's native column types. Infor-specific field types that have no Monday.com equivalent (complex multi-level picklists, lookups to other Infor objects) are converted to the closest native type (Dropdown, Date, Link, or Text) and documented in the field mapping spreadsheet. Complex Infor lookups that referenced other Infor records are not replicated as linked Items unless the customer has a specific use case requiring it.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
Territory and Quota
monday CRM
Board (Territories)
1:1Infor territories and quota assignments do not have a native Monday.com equivalent. We create a Territories Board with Items representing each territory and quota values stored as Number columns, linked to the relevant Owner via a Person column. The customer manually defines and assigns territory structures in Monday.com post-migration.
Infor CloudSuite Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
User / Owner
monday CRM
Monday.com Team Member
1:1Infor CRM Users (serving as record Owners) map to Monday.com team members by email match. Owner assignment on Opportunities, Tickets, and Activities migrates to the Person column in Monday.com. Users without a matching Monday.com team member go to a reconciliation queue for the customer to provision before record import resumes.

Migration approach
Discovery and scoping
We audit the Infor CRM database across all modules in scope: Account and Contact counts, Opportunity volume, Lead pipeline, Activity history (calls, emails, meetings, tasks), Ticket backlog, custom field inventory, Sales Period structure, territory and quota assignments, and user count. We review the Infor BPM automation layer for active automations connected to CRM events, assess the Infor ION integration catalog for ERP connections, and inventory attachment volume and storage location. The output is a written migration scope that identifies what migrates, what requires explicit mapping, what documents as a rebuild handoff, and what cannot migrate (BPM code, native attachments). We align on a Monday.com workspace and board structure during this phase.
Schema design and board structure
We design the Monday.com board architecture to replicate the Infor CRM object model. This includes creating the Contacts Board (with Account as the parent Item grouping), Deals Board (with stage Groups), Leads Board (if kept separate), Activity sub-board or CRM Activity column, Service Board for Tickets, Campaigns Board, and Products Board. We configure columns for every Infor standard and custom field, map Infor custom field types to Monday.com column types, set up Connected Boards columns for Account-Contact and Contact-Deal relationships, and design the Sales Period date mapping as custom date columns with filter logic. The board structure is validated in a Monday.com free trial or sandbox workspace before any data load.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Monday.com sandbox workspace using production-like data volumes. The customer reconciles record counts across Infor (Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities, Leads, Activities, Tickets) against Monday.com Items, spot-checks 25-50 records per object for field-level accuracy, reviews the Sales Period date mapping on Deals, and validates the Account-Contact and Deal-Account relationship links. The customer approves the board structure, column mapping, and activity timeline format before production migration begins. Mapping corrections happen here.
Owner reconciliation and team provisioning
We extract every distinct Infor CRM User referenced as Owner on Account, Contact, Opportunity, Lead, Activity, and Ticket records and match by email against the Monday.com destination team's member list. Any Infor User without a matching Monday.com team member goes to a reconciliation queue for the customer to provision the account before record import resumes. OwnerId resolution must be complete before any Items with Person column assignments are loaded.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record-dependency order: Monday.com workspace and team setup (validated), Contacts Board with Account Items first, Contacts with Account lookup resolved via Connected Boards column, Deals with Account and Owner lookups resolved, Leads on the Leads Board, Activities (Tasks, Events, Calls, Notes) last because they reference both Contact and Deal Items, then file attachments exported to the approved store with Link columns created on parent Items, then custom fields configured as board columns post-data-load. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. Sales Period decomposition is applied as date column values on Deal Items during the Deals phase.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze writes to Infor CRM during the cutover window, run a final delta migration of any records created or modified during the window, then set Monday.com as the system of record. We deliver the BPM automation and ION integration inventory document to the customer's admin team with rebuild recommendations. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised by the team. We do not rebuild Infor BPM automations as Monday.com automations inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement for the customer's admin or a Monday.com partner.
