Overview
Jonas Enterprise is a 40-module construction ERP with tight integration between its General Ledger, Job Cost, Service Management, and Payroll modules — all data stored in a shared SQL database with module-specific tables. Monday CRM uses a board-and-item data model where Contacts, Companies, Deals, and Invoices are first-class CRM entities, while project and operational data lives in customizable boards with column types for text, numbers, dates, links, and formulas. Moving from Jonas to Monday CRM requires extracting Jonas module data through database queries or API calls, transforming construction-specific concepts (cost codes, work orders, service agreements, time entries) into Monday's column-based structure, and preserving relational links between jobs, sub-items, and CRM records. FlitStack AI handles this by first mapping Jonas's module tables to Monday CRM entities: Jonas Customers map to Monday Contacts and Companies, Jonas Work Orders map to Items with status columns, Jonas Jobs map to a Projects board linked to the CRM Deals. Custom columns in Monday replicate Jonas fields like Cost Code, Labor Burden, and Contract Amount. We preserve job-to-work-order hierarchies using Monday's Subitems feature, map Jonas service contracts to labeled Deals with contract-value columns, and surface Jonas GL account numbers as reference fields on linked items. Workflows, automations, and email templates in Jonas do not transfer — these require manual rebuild in Monday's Automation Center. FlitStack delivers a data dictionary export of your Jonas configuration to serve as the rebuild reference for your Monday admin.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software 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.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Customer (AR module)
monday CRM
Contact + Company
many:1Jonas AR Customers with billing addresses, credit limits, and payment terms merge into Monday CRM Contacts (person records) linked to Companies (business records). Jonas customer type flags (Contractor, Sub, Owner) become custom pick-list columns on the Company record. Additional fields such as AR aging buckets and sales rep assignments map to custom number and text columns for credit monitoring and territory management.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Job (Job Cost module)
monday CRM
Item on Projects Board
1:1Jonas Jobs with Job Number, description, contract amount, and cost code structure map to Monday Items on a Projects board. Jonas phase-level costrollup becomes Monday formula columns that sum child work order costs. Job status from Jonas (Active, Completed, Closed) maps to Monday Status column values.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Work Order (Service module)
monday CRM
Subitem on Job Item
1:manyJonas Work Orders linked to a parent Job split into Monday Subitems attached to the corresponding Job Item. Jonas work order priority (Emergency, Urgent, Routine) becomes a Monday Priority column; labor hours and parts costs become separate Number columns. Open versus completed status maps to the Subitem's Status column.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Service Contract / PMA (Service module)
monday CRM
Deal with Contract label
1:1Jonas Preventive Maintenance Agreements with contract value, billing frequency, and coverage scope map to Monday CRM Deals labeled 'Service Contract.' Custom columns capture Jonas contract fields: billing frequency (Monthly, Quarterly, Annual), contract value, and last PM date. Deal stage reflects Jonas contract status (Active, Expired, Pending Renewal).
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Employee (Payroll module)
monday CRM
Contact with Employee label
1:1Jonas Employees with name, trade/craft classification, hourly rate, and union affiliation become Monday Contacts tagged with an 'Employee' label. Trade classification maps to a custom text column; hourly rate and union status become reference fields for labor cost estimation on work order Items.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Equipment (Equipment Management module)
monday CRM
Item on Equipment Board
1:1Jonas Equipment records with asset ID, description, maintenance schedule, and current location map to Monday Items on a dedicated Equipment board. Jonas PM due dates become Date columns; equipment status (Operational, Under Repair, Retired) becomes a Status column. Equipment is linked to Work Order Subitems that reference it.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Inventory Item (Inventory module)
monday CRM
Item on Inventory Board
1:1Jonas Inventory with part number, description, bin location, min/max quantities, and unit cost map to Monday Items on an Inventory board. Jonas reorder point becomes a Number column; current quantity on hand maps to a separate Number column. Unit cost from Jonas becomes a Currency column for job cost estimation.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Vendor (AP module)
monday CRM
Company with Vendor label
1:1Jonas AP Vendors with name, 1099 flag, payment terms, and W-9 status map to Monday Companies tagged with 'Vendor.' Payment terms (Net 30, Net 60) become a custom text column. Jonas vendor type (Material Supplier, Subcontractor, Equipment Rental) becomes a pick-list column for filtering.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Document (Jonas Documents)
monday CRM
File attachment on Item
1:1Jonas Documents attached to Jobs, Work Orders, or Customers are downloaded and re-uploaded as Monday file attachments on the corresponding Items or Contacts. We preserve original document names, upload dates, and Jonas document type labels as a text column for traceability. Maximum file size follows Monday's 250MB per file limit.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Time Entry (Field Time / eTimesheets)
monday CRM
Item on Time Tracking Board
1:1Jonas Field Time entries with employee, date, hours worked, job code, and work order reference map to Monday Items on a Time Tracking board. Jonas cost code per time entry becomes a linked column to the relevant Job Item. Daily hour totals per employee become Number columns for labor reporting against Jonas Job Cost.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
GL Account (General Ledger)
monday CRM
Text reference field on Items
1:1Jonas GL account numbers (e.g., 4-120, 5-400) have no direct Monday CRM equivalent. We preserve GL account references as a text column on Items linked to Jonas financial records. GL data does not migrate — Monday CRM does not post to accounting ledgers; finance teams continue using Jonas or export to QuickBooks for GL reconciliation.
Jonas Enterprise Service & Construction Software
Payroll Entry (Payroll module)
monday CRM
No equivalent
1:1Jonas payroll entries with earnings, deductions, tax withholdings, and direct deposit details are construction-specific financial transactions with no Monday CRM equivalent. Payroll data remains in Jonas or migrates separately to a payroll platform. We preserve the employee time-to-payroll link as a reference field for audit continuity.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Jonas database connection and schema inventory
FlitStack AI establishes a read-only connection to your Jonas SQL database (or Jonas Cloud API endpoint) and inventories all module schemas — Job Cost tables, Work Order tables, Service Contract tables, Customer/AR tables, Employee/Payroll tables, Equipment tables, and Document storage paths. We identify primary keys, foreign keys linking work orders to jobs, and Jonas-specific fields that require custom column creation in Monday. This step produces a schema map that documents every Jonas table we will access, the record counts per table, and the estimated export volume for Monday API batching.
Monday workspace provisioning and board structure setup
Before data migration begins, FlitStack provisions your Monday CRM workspace and creates the board structure needed to receive Jonas data: a Projects board with columns for Job Number, Cost Code, Contract Amount, and Status; a Service board for Work Orders linked as Subitems to Jobs; a Service Contracts board mapped to CRM Deals; an Equipment board; an Inventory board; and a Time Tracking board. We create all custom columns (text, number, date, currency, pick-list) identified in the schema inventory. Monday workspace admins receive board-level permissions configuration guidance before items are loaded.
Data extraction, transformation, and validation
We extract Jonas data in dependency order: Vendors and Customers first (no foreign key dependencies), then Employees, then Jobs with their Work Order sub-items, then Service Contracts, Equipment, and Inventory. During extraction, FlitStack transforms Jonas data formats to Monday column types — date fields from Jonas datetime format to Monday ISO date strings, currency amounts from Jonas decimal storage to Monday currency format, and Jonas pick-list codes to Monday Status or pick-list values. Validation checks run against each extracted batch: foreign key integrity (all Work Orders have a valid parent Job), required field presence (all Jobs have a Job Number), and data type compliance (cost code fields contain only valid alphanumeric characters).
Sample migration with field-level diff and reconciliation
A representative sample (typically 200–500 items spanning Jobs, Work Orders, Service Contracts, and Contacts) migrates to Monday first. FlitStack generates a field-level diff report comparing source Jonas values against the destination Monday values for every mapped column. Your team reviews the diff to verify: Jonas cost codes appear correctly in Monday Cost Code columns, Work Order priority values map to Monday Priority labels, Service Contract billing frequencies populate the custom pick-list, and employee technician assignments resolve to Monday user accounts by email match. Any mapping errors are corrected before the full migration run proceeds.
Full migration with delta-pickup and go-live cutover
The full Jonas dataset migrates to Monday using batched API commits within Monday's concurrency limits. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours) runs concurrently with your cutover: any new Jonas Work Orders created or status changes made during the window are captured and applied to Monday before final sign-off. FlitStack generates a complete audit log of every record migrated, the transformation applied, and the Monday item ID assigned. One-click rollback reverts the Monday workspace to its pre-migration state if reconciliation reveals data integrity issues. Post-migration, we deliver the Jonas automation inventory and workflow configuration export as a rebuild reference for your Monday admin.
