Overview
Legal Case Tracker organizes case management around structured matter records with linked contacts, documents, tasks, calendar events, and billing entries. Monday CRM uses a board-and-item model with customizable columns: Accounts, Contacts, Leads, and Deals as core CRM entities, with custom columns and board groups handling matter-specific fields. FlitStack AI maps Legal Case Tracker cases to Monday CRM Deal items, contacts to Contact entities, client organizations to Account records, and documents to Monday file attachments. Time entries and calendar events become custom columns or subitems on the deal board. We map Legal Case Tracker's matter status values to Monday CRM status column options, preserving priority and SLA columns as custom fields. Workflows, automation rules, and custom report configurations do not migrate — those must be rebuilt in Monday's automation builder. The migration runs via Monday CRM's API, respecting per-plan rate limits (Basic/Standard: 1,000 calls/day; Pro: 10,000 calls/day), with CSV export fallback when API access is constrained. We sequence the migration so foreign-key relationships resolve correctly before dependent records land.
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 Legal Case Tracker 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.
Legal Case Tracker
Matter / Case
monday CRM
Deal item (on Cases board)
1:1Legal Case Tracker matters map to Monday CRM Deal items on a dedicated Cases board. The matter name becomes the item title, and matter status maps to a Status column with values converted to Monday status labels. Original create dates and last-modified timestamps are preserved as custom datetime columns on the item.
Legal Case Tracker
Contact (on Matter)
monday CRM
Contact
1:1Legal Case Tracker contacts linked to a matter map to Monday CRM Contact entities. Each contact is deduplicated by email address — if a contact already exists in Monday CRM, the matter association is added via the contact's linked Deals. Role labels (e.g., Attorney, Client, Opposing Counsel) migrate as a custom person or text column on the Contact or Deal item.
Legal Case Tracker
Client Organization
monday CRM
Account
1:1The primary client organization on a Legal Case Tracker matter maps to a Monday CRM Account. Company name maps to Account Name, domain maps to the website field, and industry maps via value mapping. Multi-client matters (rare in legal) are handled by linking multiple Account records to the Deal item.
Legal Case Tracker
Document / File
monday CRM
File column (on Deal item)
1:1Documents attached to a Legal Case Tracker matter are downloaded and re-uploaded to Monday CRM file attachments on the corresponding Deal item. File names and original upload timestamps are preserved in the file metadata. File size limits (25MB per file on Monday CRM) are enforced during migration — files exceeding the limit are flagged for manual re-upload.
Legal Case Tracker
Task / Subtask
monday CRM
Subitem (on Deal item)
1:1Legal Case Tracker tasks and subtasks nested under a matter map to Monday CRM subitems on the Deal item. Task title becomes the subitem name, due date maps to the Date column, and assignee maps to the Person column. Status (Open, Completed) maps to a Status column on the subitem. Task hierarchy is preserved as subitem nesting depth.
Legal Case Tracker
Calendar Event / Hearing
monday CRM
Date column / Subitem (on Deal item)
1:1Legal Case Tracker calendar events and hearing dates map to Monday CRM Date columns on the Deal item for single-date events. Multi-day or complex hearings with start/end times become subitems with a Date Range column. The event title becomes the subitem name. Participants and location map to Person and Text columns on the subitem.
Legal Case Tracker
Expense / Billing Entry
monday CRM
Custom Number + Text columns (on Deal item)
1:1Legal Case Tracker expense entries attached to a matter migrate as custom Number and Text columns on the Monday CRM Deal item — for example, Hourly_Rate__c, Hours_Billed__c, and Total_Fees__c. Currency values map to the Number column type; expense descriptions map to a Text column. Billing integration with LawPay or Clio must be rebuilt as a Monday CRM integration post-migration.
Legal Case Tracker
Matter Custom Fields
monday CRM
Custom Columns (on Deal item)
1:1Legal Case Tracker custom fields on matter records — such as Court_Jurisdiction__c, Case_Number__c, or Insurance_Provider__c — map to custom columns on the Monday CRM Deal item. Each custom field type (text, number, date, person, status) is matched to the nearest Monday CRM column type. Required fields and field dependencies in Legal Case Tracker are documented in the migration plan for admin reconstruction in Monday.
Legal Case Tracker
Matter Priority / SLA
monday CRM
Custom Number / Status column (on Deal item)
1:1Legal Case Tracker priority levels (High, Medium, Low) and SLA deadlines map to Monday CRM Status and Date columns. Priority values are mapped value-by-value to matching Monday status labels. SLA deadlines become Date columns with automated reminder rules rebuilt in Monday's automation builder post-migration.
Legal Case Tracker
Activity Log / Notes
monday CRM
Updates / Activity column (on Deal item)
1:1Legal Case Tracker notes and activity log entries linked to a matter migrate as Monday CRM Updates on the Deal item. Each log entry is posted as a timestamped update with the author name and note content. Activity type (email, call, meeting) is preserved as a text prefix in the update body. Original timestamps are preserved in the update metadata.
Legal Case Tracker
Workflows / Automation Rules
monday CRM
Monday CRM Automation Builder
1:1Legal Case Tracker workflows and automation triggers do not have a direct equivalent in Monday CRM. These must be rebuilt manually in Monday's automation builder after migration. FlitStack AI exports the workflow definitions from Legal Case Tracker as a reference document (JSON/YAML) so your Monday admin can reconstruct the logic as automation recipes.
Legal Case Tracker
Custom Reports / Dashboards
monday CRM
Monday CRM Dashboard widgets
1:1Legal Case Tracker custom report configurations and saved dashboards cannot migrate to Monday CRM's Dashboard widget model. The underlying data (matter records, activity, billing) does migrate. Your Monday admin must rebuild reports as Dashboard widgets pulling from the migrated Deals board data. FlitStack AI provides a data dictionary mapping Legal Case Tracker report fields to Monday CRM column names.

Migration approach
Audit Legal Case Tracker data model and define Monday CRM board architecture
FlitStack AI inventories every matter record, contact, document, task, calendar event, and custom field in Legal Case Tracker via API export or structured CSV. We identify matter types, status values, custom field definitions, and role-labeling patterns. Simultaneously, we work with your Monday admin to define board architecture — typically one board per matter type, with status columns, custom columns, and subitem structure agreed before any data moves. This step produces a signed migration plan covering record counts, column mapping, and board structure.
Resolve contact and user ownership by email match
Monday CRM requires an Owner (person) assignment on Deal items. We match Legal Case Tracker assigned attorneys and task owners to Monday CRM users by email address. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration — your team either creates the Monday CRM user first or assigns records to a fallback owner. No item lands without an owner assignment. Account creation follows the same email-resolution logic for client organizations.
Migrate Accounts, Contacts, and Matters in dependency order
Monday CRM requires Accounts to exist before Contacts (via Account lookup) and Contacts before Deals (via linked contact associations). We sequence the migration: (1) Accounts from client organizations, (2) Contacts deduplicated by email, (3) Deal items with matter data and custom columns, (4) Subitems for tasks and calendar events, (5) File attachments uploaded to the file column. Documents are downloaded from Legal Case Tracker and re-uploaded to Monday CRM, respecting 25MB per-file limits.
Run sample migration with field-level diff before full commit
A representative slice of records — typically 50–200 matters across different matter types, statuses, and attorney assignments — migrates first. We generate a field-level diff report comparing source Legal Case Tracker values against Monday CRM item columns. You verify status mapping, priority columns, contact role columns, and document attachments before the full run commits. This is the validation gate: no full migration runs until you sign off on the sample.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window and rollback available
The full migration runs against Monday CRM API, respecting per-plan rate limits (chunked and backoff-enabled). A delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any new or modified records created in Legal Case Tracker during cutover. Audit log captures every API operation. If reconciliation reveals data integrity issues, one-click rollback reverts the Monday CRM account to its pre-migration state. Post-migration, we deliver a data dictionary mapping Legal Case Tracker field names to Monday CRM column IDs so your admin can complete automation rebuilds and Dashboard widget setup.
