Overview
JobNimbus organizes contractor data around a Jobs model: contacts and companies sit alongside job records, each with their own custom fields and workflow-driven status. Monday CRM repositions everything as Items on customizable Boards — contacts, companies, and deals become Items in separate boards, and every attribute becomes a column. The migration carries all standard and custom fields (Date, Decimal, Number, Text) from JobNimbus contacts, companies, and jobs into Monday's column types, preserving original create dates and owner assignments as metadata columns. During extraction, FlitStack uses JobNimbus's paginated API to pull records in batches, then validates field types and workflow stage values before writing to Monday. Owner IDs are resolved by matching email addresses to Monday CRM users, with unmatched owners flagged for pre‑migration setup. JobNimbus workflow automations and Engage (SMS) integrations cannot migrate — FlitStack exports your automation definitions as a reference document for Monday's automation rebuild. Load operations are paced to respect Monday API rate limits (1,000/day on Basic, 10,000/day on Pro, 25,000/day on Enterprise), and a delta‑pickup window captures any changes made in JobNimbus during the migration window. A full audit log and one‑click rollback protect against data loss.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Jobnimbus 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.
Jobnimbus
Contact
monday CRM
Item (Contact Board)
1:1JobNimbus Contact records become Items in a dedicated Contact board. Standard fields (firstname, lastname, email, phone, address) map to Monday column types. Owner assignment resolves by email match to a Monday People column. Original create dates map to a custom Created_At__c datetime column since Monday's built-in created_at is migration-timestamp only.
Jobnimbus
Company
monday CRM
Item (Company Board)
1:1JobNimbus Company records map to Items in a separate Company board. Fields like name, domain, industry, annual revenue, and employee count map to Monday column types. Parent-company hierarchies (where a company has a parent) map to a Link-to-Item column pointing to the parent Company Item.
Jobnimbus
Job
monday CRM
Item (Deals Board)
1:1JobNimbus Job records are the primary entity in the source system and map to Items in a Deals board in Monday CRM. Every Job custom field (roof type, material, square footage, insurance claim number, etc.) becomes a Monday column. Job workflow stages map to a Monday Status column with value-by-value mapping to match your existing stage names.
Jobnimbus
Job workflow stages
monday CRM
Status column (Deals Board)
1:1JobNimbus workflow stages such as New, Contacted, Scheduled, In Progress, and Complete map directly to Monday Status column options, preserving each label and its assigned color. Stage‑enter timestamps from JobNimbus are stored as separate Date columns for every transition, enabling historical pipeline reports to reflect the original timing without manual recreation.
Jobnimbus
Custom Fields (Date, Decimal, Number, Text)
monday CRM
Columns (per board)
1:1JobNimbus custom fields on Contacts and Jobs are type-aware. Date fields become Monday Date columns, Decimal and Number fields become Monday Number columns (with decimal precision preserved), and Text fields become Monday Text columns. Custom field definitions are preserved as a column-naming convention reference for your Monday admin.
Jobnimbus
Contact–Company association
monday CRM
Link-to-Item column
1:1JobNimbus allows multiple companies per contact. In Monday CRM, the primary company association maps to a Link-to-Item column pointing from the Contact Item to the Company Item. Secondary company associations are preserved as additional Link columns or as a JSON-encoded text field if the board structure requires it.
Jobnimbus
Job–Contact (primary) association
monday CRM
Link-to-Item column
1:1Each Job in JobNimbus has a primary contact. This maps to a Link-to-Item column on the Deals board Item pointing to the primary Contact Item. Monday's subitem structure is not used here because the Job itself is the primary Item.
Jobnimbus
Attachment / Document
monday CRM
File column
1:1JobNimbus files attached to Contacts and Jobs are re-uploaded into Monday's File column per Item. File size limits on the destination account apply. We re-download from JobNimbus and re-upload to Monday; original file names and download URLs are preserved in the migration audit log.
Jobnimbus
Owner / Team Member
monday CRM
People column
1:1JobNimbus owner IDs resolve by email match to Monday CRM users. Unmatched owners are flagged pre-migration with a fallback option: invite them to Monday first, or assign records to a designated fallback user. No Item lands without a resolved owner.
Jobnimbus
Workflow Automations
monday CRM
Automation definitions (rebuild reference)
1:1JobNimbus automations (trigger-action rules on job and contact events) have no direct Monday CRM equivalent and cannot be migrated as executable rules. We export all automation definitions — trigger type, conditions, and actions — as a structured JSON and PDF reference document that your Monday admin uses to rebuild automations in Monday's automation builder.
Jobnimbus
Engage SMS / Texting
monday CRM
Not migrated
1:1JobNimbus Engage (SMS) conversations are tied to JobNimbus's internal texting platform. Monday CRM has no native SMS module; texting requires third-party integrations like Twilio. SMS history is exported as a text reference file, but the conversation thread cannot be replayed inside Monday CRM.
Jobnimbus
Estimate / Quote
monday CRM
Item columns + document upload
1:1JobNimbus estimates (legacy or modern) contain line items, quantities, pricing, and templates. These are decomposed: the estimate total and key line items migrate as Number and Text columns on the Job Item, and the original estimate PDF is attached via File column. Full line-item detail requires rebuilding in Monday or a quoting integration.
Jobnimbus
Invoice / Payment
monday CRM
Not migrated
1:1JobNimbus invoices and payment records are financial instruments tied to JobNimbus Payments (QuickBooks sync, card processing). Monday CRM has no native invoicing or payment processing. Financial records should be exported from JobNimbus and maintained in your accounting system; they do not migrate as CRM Items.
Jobnimbus
JobNimbus Board structure
monday CRM
Multiple Monday Boards
many:1JobNimbus allows multiple boards per workflow. Each board in JobNimbus maps to a separate Monday CRM board with its own Status column, groups, and columns. We create a board-per-JobNimbus-board mapping plan before migration so your Monday workspace mirrors the workflow separation you rely on.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit JobNimbus data model and export data via API
We begin by connecting to JobNimbus via API using your credentials. We pull a full export of all Contacts, Companies, Jobs, and custom field definitions across every board. JobNimbus's API supports pagination for large record sets; for accounts over 10,000 records we use the documented 10k+ query approach. We capture the schema — field names, types, workflow stage values, owner assignments, and attachment URLs — before writing any destination data.
Design Monday CRM board structure and column schema
Before data moves, we create the board and column design plan. Each JobNimbus board becomes a Monday CRM board. We define the Status column options (mapped from JobNimbus workflow stages), Number and Date columns for custom fields, and Link-to-Item columns for Contact and Company associations. Monday column types are locked once Items have data, so this step resolves the full schema before any load. We deliver the board design as a setup checklist your admin executes in Monday.
Resolve owner and user mappings by email
JobNimbus owner IDs are matched by email to Monday CRM users. We generate a pre-migration owner report listing every owner in JobNimbus and their Monday CRM user match status. Unmatched owners are flagged for action: invite them to Monday first, or designate a fallback owner. No Item is loaded without a resolved owner. This step prevents orphaned records and ensures accountability assignments are consistent from day one.
Run a test migration with field-level diff on a sample batch
We migrate a representative sample — typically 100–300 Items across contacts, companies, and jobs — into the Monday CRM workspace. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values in JobNimbus to destination column values in Monday. You verify stage mapping, owner resolution, custom field column placement, and link associations before the full run commits. Any column misplacement or value-mapping error is corrected before the bulk load.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full data load runs in batches, respecting Monday CRM's API rate limits (1,000/day on Basic, 10,000/day on Pro, 25,000/day on Enterprise). We pace requests and retry on throttled responses. A delta-pickup window opens when the bulk load completes — typically 24–48 hours — capturing any Contacts, Companies, or Jobs modified in JobNimbus during the migration window. Audit logs record every operation. One-click rollback reverts all Monday CRM changes if reconciliation fails.
