Overview
Moving from Oracle CRM On Demand to Monday.com CRM is a structural transformation, not a direct record copy. Oracle CRM On Demand uses a traditional relational object model (Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, Activities) with field-level access controls and role-based export restrictions. Monday.com CRM operates on a board-based architecture where records are Items organized into Boards with customizable Columns. We reverse-engineer Oracle's custom object schema during discovery, map each Oracle object to an equivalent Monday.com Entity (People, Companies, or a custom Board with typed Columns), and preserve parent-child relationships as Board Groups or Item Links. Oracle's 30 requests per minute rate limit governs export sequencing, and the 168-hour list export window requires immediate file download upon job completion. Workflow Rules, Tags, and Legacy Lead Referral create-only restrictions do not migrate; we deliver a written configuration inventory for admin-side rebuild in Monday.com's automation builder.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Oracle CRM On Demand 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.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Account
monday CRM
Company Entity (People board)
1:1Oracle Accounts map to Monday.com's Company Entity within the People board. We extract AccountName, Location, Industry, AccountType, Owner, and custom fields during discovery, then map each to the equivalent Company Column in Monday.com. Address records (street, city, state, postal code, country) map to structured address Columns or a single long-text Address Column depending on the customer's chosen board layout. Owner assignment requires a User mapping table since Oracle user IDs and Monday.com member emails differ.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Contact
monday CRM
People Entity (People board)
1:1Oracle Contacts map to People Entities in Monday.com CRM. We preserve ContactName, EmailAddress, PhoneNumber, JobTitle, and all custom contact fields as Columns on the People Entity. Contact-to-Account linking in Oracle maps to the Company Column on the People Entity, creating the relationship in Monday.com's CRM data model. Duplicate detection uses EmailAddress as the primary dedupe key. Role-level field restrictions from Oracle are documented as part of the mapping deliverable since some Contact fields may be hidden from the export user role.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Lead
monday CRM
People Entity (Lead Status Column)
1:1Oracle Leads map to People Entities in Monday.com CRM with Lead_Status preserved as a status Column value. If the customer is on the Enterprise Lead Referral tier (create-only), we flag this during discovery because historical Lead records beyond creation events may be inaccessible via API under that tier's restrictions. We migrate the full Lead record where accessible: LeadSource, LeadStatus, custom lead fields, and created/modified timestamps as date Columns. Oracle Lead conversion (creating an Account and Contact from a Lead) has no direct Monday.com equivalent; we preserve the conversion context in a text Column noting the original Lead record reference.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Opportunity
monday CRM
Deal Item (or custom Opportunities Board)
1:1Oracle Opportunities map to Deal Items in Monday.com CRM. Each Opportunity becomes an Item in the Deals Board, with OpportunityName as the Item name, Amount as a number Column, CloseDate as a date Column, SalesStage as a status Column, and Probability as a number Column. The Oracle Opportunity-to-Account relationship maps to the Company Column on the Deal Item, and Opportunity-to-Contact relationships map to the People Column. We handle pipeline stage mapping by creating Monday.com status groups that correspond to Oracle's pipeline stage values.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Pipeline
monday CRM
Status Column Group
lossyOracle's Opportunity pipeline stages map to Monday.com Status Column values on the Deals Board. Each Oracle pipeline becomes a distinct Status Column, or a single Status Column with all stage values if the customer uses one sales process. Stage probability percentages migrate as a separate number Column. If Oracle uses multiple pipelines, we create multiple Status Columns or separate Boards per pipeline, depending on the customer's reporting needs in Monday.com.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Activity: Task
monday CRM
Update or Timeline Entry
1:1Oracle Tasks map to Update entries on the linked Account, Contact, or Opportunity Item in Monday.com. Task Subject becomes the Update title, Description maps to Update body text, Status maps to a status indicator in the Update, and DueDate maps to a date reference. We preserve the activity timestamp from Oracle's ActivityDate as a date Column or Update timestamp for audit ordering. Large activity histories (over 12-24 months) are prioritized for recent records with older records flagged for archival handling during scoping.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Activity: Call
monday CRM
Update or custom Column
1:1Oracle Call records map to Updates on the linked Item with Call-specific Columns: CallDuration maps to a number Column (seconds), CallDisposition maps to a text Column, and CallType (inbound/outbound) maps to a status Column. Call notes from Description migrate to the Update body. If the customer requires structured call logging, we configure a dedicated Calls Group or sub-Board within the account or opportunity Board with typed Columns for duration, outcome, and disposition.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Activity: Appointment
monday CRM
Update or Calendar integration
1:1Oracle Appointments (meetings) map to Updates on the linked Item with StartTime, EndTime, and Location preserved as date and text Columns. If Monday.com's Calendar integration is active, we document the appointment mapping so the customer's admin can connect Oracle calendar data post-migration. Meeting notes migrate as Update body text with the original Oracle timestamp preserved for activity ordering.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Custom Object
monday CRM
Custom Board with typed Columns
1:1Oracle Custom Objects migrate to Monday.com Boards with Column types matched to Oracle field data types: text fields to text Columns, numbers to number Columns, dates to date Columns, picklists to status Columns, and lookups to People or Group Columns. We reverse-engineer the Oracle custom object definition during discovery (field names, types, required flags, lookup relationships) before creating the Monday.com Board schema. Custom Object relationships to standard Oracle objects (Account, Contact, Opportunity) map to People Columns or Group Columns in Monday.com. We do not migrate Custom Object hierarchies as separate Boards unless the customer specifically requests it during scoping.
Oracle CRM On Demand
Attachment
monday CRM
File upload to Item
1:1Oracle record attachments migrate as file uploads attached to the corresponding Item in Monday.com. We handle both URL-based attachments (stored as a text Column with the original URL) and blob-stored attachments (downloaded and re-uploaded to Monday.com's file storage). Attachment file sizes and volumes are scoped separately from record migration because Monday.com has per-board storage limits. We flag any attachments exceeding Monday.com's file size limits during discovery for customer decision on handling.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and Oracle API access validation
We audit the source Oracle CRM On Demand tenant across standard objects (Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, Activities) and any custom objects, including custom field definitions, picklist values, required flags, and lookup relationships. We validate REST API access under an administrator account with 'List - Export all Fields' privilege, confirm the export field scope, and document any fields restricted by role-level privileges. We also identify any Enterprise Lead Referral restrictions and inventory Workflow Rules for the automation rebuild inventory.
Monday.com CRM schema design
We design the destination structure in Monday.com CRM based on the Oracle schema inventory. This includes creating the People board (Companies and People Entities with typed Columns matched to Oracle field types), the Deals Board (Opportunities as Items with pipeline stage Status Column), and any custom Boards for Oracle Custom Objects. We define column type strategy during this phase, resolving multi-select picklist, long-text, and lookup fields into Monday.com-compatible column types and documenting any fidelity trade-offs with the customer.
Data staging and deduplication
We stage all Oracle exports in our migration workspace, immediately upon file availability to bypass the 168-hour expiration window. We run a deduplication pass on Contacts (using EmailAddress as primary key) and Accounts (using AccountName as primary key) before importing into Monday.com. Any duplicate records are flagged for customer review before the import phase begins, preventing the 30% duplication rates that industry data shows result from skipping this step.
Board migration in dependency order
We migrate into Monday.com CRM in dependency order: Companies first (People Entity), then People (Contacts/Leads with Company linkage), then Deals (Opportunities with Company and People linkage), then Activity Updates (Tasks, Calls, Appointments attached to the relevant Item), then Custom Objects (with lookups resolved to parent Items). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report showing records imported versus records expected. Oracle's 30 req/min rate limit governs the export sequencing queue, and we batch reads accordingly.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze Oracle CRM On Demand writes during the cutover window, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration phase, then mark Monday.com CRM as the system of record. We validate by spot-checking 5-10% of migrated records against Oracle source data, running Monday.com board reports, and confirming activity timeline ordering. We deliver the Workflow Rule inventory document for admin-side rebuild in Monday.com's automation builder. We do not rebuild Oracle Workflow Rules as Monday.com automations inside the migration scope; that is a separate engagement.
