Overview
Migrating from Oracle EBS CRM to Monday.com CRM is a structural reset, not a record copy. Oracle EBS CRM stores CRM data in tightly joined APPS and base-product database schemas with no standard REST API — we extract by direct database query with read-only credentials scoped to the CRM-relevant tables. Monday.com CRM is a board-based system where Opportunities live as Items inside a Board with Status columns replacing traditional CRM stage picklists, and there is no native Lead object, no Forecast module, and no Territory management. We map the EBS schema objects to Monday.com Boards, Groups, and custom columns, preserve Activity history as Board Items with timestamped updates, and document every Oracle Workflow, Territory definition, and Forecast record that cannot migrate as code. We do not rebuild automations or sequences inside the migration scope — we deliver a written inventory for the customer's admin to rebuild in Monday.com's automation builder.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Oracle EBS 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.
Oracle EBS CRM
Account
monday CRM
CRM Board / Company Group
1:1Oracle EBS CRM Accounts (stored in ARHZTARZ base tables and exposed through the APPS schema) map to a Monday.com CRM Board where each Account becomes an Item inside a dedicated Group named after the Account. Account name maps to the Item name, and key fields (industry, address, revenue tier) map to custom columns on the Item. We extract the HZ_PARTIES and HZ_ACCOUNTS tables during discovery and create a Group-per-Account board structure that allows the sales team to view all account-level data at a glance. If the customer maintains multiple Account types (prospects, customers, partners), we create separate Groups within the same Board rather than separate Boards to preserve reporting continuity.
Oracle EBS CRM
Contact
monday CRM
Item (linked or subitem)
1:1EBS CRM Contacts (sourced from the base HR or AR schemas depending on employee vs. external-party classification) map to Monday.com Items within the corresponding Account Group, or as Subitems attached to the Account Item if the customer prefers the parent-child structure. Email address, phone, role, and relationship to Account transfer to custom columns. We resolve the Contact-to-Account relationship by querying the HZ_RELATIONSHIPS table and creating the Subitem or linked Item attachment during migration. Contact ownership from FND_RESPONSIBILITY maps to a People column on the Item.
Oracle EBS CRM
Opportunity
monday CRM
Item with Status Column
1:1EBS CRM Opportunities (stored in the CZ Collaborative Selling schema or the deprecated ASF tables depending on CRM module version) map to Monday.com Items inside the relevant Account Group, with the EBS deal stage mapped to a Status column that replaces the CRM pipeline stage concept. Amount, close date, probability, and owner transfer to custom columns. EBS Opportunity probability (stored as a numeric value) migrates as a Number column — Monday.com has no native probability field, so the customer reviews and adjusts probability settings in a custom Formula or Percentage column post-migration. The CZ schema version is identified during discovery before extraction begins.
Oracle EBS CRM
Custom Objects
monday CRM
Custom Columns (single board) or separate Board
lossyEBS CRM custom objects stored in user-defined tables within base product schemas (often with FK columns pointing to RA_CUSTOMERS or OE_HEADERS) have no direct Monday.com equivalent because Monday.com does not support true independent custom objects with their own schema. We map custom object fields to Monday.com custom columns on the relevant Board — typically the CRM Board for business-object custom records. For complex custom objects with multi-record cardinality, we recommend a separate Board with Items representing each custom record and a Link column back to the parent Account or Contact. We extract DDL and sample data during discovery to determine the appropriate mapping strategy per custom object.
Oracle EBS CRM
Territory
monday CRM
Group or Board (no native equivalent)
1:1EBS CRM Territory definitions (stored in AS_TERRITORIES base tables with hierarchical org structure) have no native Monday.com equivalent. Monday.com has no Territory management module. We extract the full territory hierarchy during discovery and document it as a structured report: territory name, parent-territory relationship, assignment rules, and assigned user list. During migration, we create a Monday.com Board called 'Territory Map' with Groups representing each Territory — the Group description carries the assignment rule logic. The customer reviews and assigns the appropriate sales rep to each Group post-migration. This is a best-effort representation; territory-based routing requires rebuilding in Monday.com's automation rules or using the territory report as a reference for manual assignment.
Oracle EBS CRM
Sales Activities / Tasks
monday CRM
Item Updates or Subitems
1:1EBS CRM activities and tasks (stored across deprecated Teleservice tables or modern Interaction Center tables depending on installed CRM module) migrate to Monday.com as Subitems on the relevant Account or Contact Item, with the Subitem name carrying the activity type and the Subitem status set to 'Complete' or 'Pending'. Call dispositions, durations, and notes transfer as custom Subitem columns. Activity timestamps are preserved by setting the Subitem's Due Date to the original EBS activity date. We identify the correct source schema during discovery because EBS CRM activity storage varies significantly by module version.
Oracle EBS CRM
Notes / History
monday CRM
Text Column or Updates Column
1:1EBS CRM notes and audit history (stored in FZ_NOTES or equivalent application-level audit tables) migrate as text entries in a Long Text column on the corresponding Account, Contact, or Opportunity Item in Monday.com. Each note is timestamped and attributed to the original EBS owner via a text column. Long-form notes exceeding Monday.com's column character limits are attached as linked Documents (via URL column) pointing to a exported file location rather than inlined. We extract the note content, create date, and owner during migration.
Oracle EBS CRM
Attachments
monday CRM
File Column or URL Column
1:1EBS CRM attachments stored as LOB data (BFILE or CLOB columns) or on the file system are extracted as binary or BASE64-encoded blobs during migration. For Monday.com, we map file attachments to a File Column on the relevant Item, preserving the original filename and extension. Attachments exceeding Monday.com's file size limits are exported to a customer-provided file storage location and referenced via a URL column on the Item. We flag any attachment above 500MB for customer review before migration.
Oracle EBS CRM
User / Employee
monday CRM
People Column (user lookup)
1:1EBS CRM users (employees sourced from PER_ALL_ASSIGNMENTS_F with CRM-specific responsibilities via FND_RESPONSIBILITIES) are extracted from FND_USER and FND_RESPONSIBILITY tables during discovery. We match EBS users to Monday.com workspace members by email address during migration. Any EBS user without a matching Monday.com account is flagged in the reconciliation report for the customer's admin to provision before record import completes. The FND_RESPONSIBILITY matrix is preserved as a text export for the customer's admin to rebuild Monday.com Workspace roles and permissions post-migration.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and database access provisioning
We audit the Oracle EBS CRM deployment: identifying the CRM module version (12.1 or 12.2), the active CRM schemas (CZ for Collaborative Selling, deprecated ASF tables, or Interaction Center), and the FND_USER and FND_RESPONSIBILITY tables for user and responsibility extraction. We confirm the network path between our migration infrastructure and the EBS database server, and the customer provisions read-only database credentials scoped to the relevant APPS and base product schemas. We run discovery queries to enumerate the target tables, validate connection integrity, and produce a record count baseline for every CRM object. This step gates all subsequent work — without confirmed database access, migration cannot proceed.
Board and schema design in Monday.com
We design the Monday.com CRM Board structure before any data moves. This includes a primary CRM Board with Groups representing the Account hierarchy, custom columns matching the EBS field inventory (mapped by data type: text, number, date, dropdown, person, file), and a Status column to represent the EBS Opportunity stage. We recommend separating Account, Contact, and Opportunity data into Items on the same Board within separate Groups to preserve the relational context that Monday.com's flat Item model cannot natively enforce. We create a separate 'Activity Log' Board for historical task and activity records that do not fit the Account-Item hierarchy. The customer reviews and approves the Board design before extraction begins.
Data extraction from Oracle APPS schema
We extract CRM data from Oracle EBS in dependency order: Account records (HZ_PARTIES, HZ_ACCOUNTS), Contact records (with relationship to Account resolved via HZ_RELATIONSHIPS), Opportunity records (CZ or ASF schema depending on version), custom object records, activity history, notes, and attachments. We extract user and responsibility data (FND_USER, FND_RESPONSIBILITY, PER_ALL_ASSIGNMENTS_F) in parallel for the Owner reconciliation step. Each extraction phase produces a row-count validation report. We flag any table that contains NULL foreign keys, orphan records, or incomplete relationship data so the customer can decide how to handle them before loading into Monday.com.
Owner reconciliation and user provisioning
We extract every distinct user referenced on CRM records (Account owner, Contact owner, Opportunity owner, activity owner) and match them against Monday.com workspace members by email address. Any EBS user without a matching Monday.com account is listed in a reconciliation report for the customer's admin to provision. Migration cannot proceed past Account and Contact loading until all Owner references can be resolved — Monday.com's People column requires a valid workspace member. The FND_RESPONSIBILITY matrix is exported as a supplementary reference for the admin to use when configuring Monday.com Workspace roles and permissions post-migration.
Data load into Monday.com via API with rate-limit handling
We load data into Monday.com in dependency order using the monday.com REST API with batch mutations. Accounts are loaded first (creating Board Items and Groups), then Contacts as Items within Account Groups, then Opportunities as Items with Status column values mapped from EBS deal stages. Custom object fields are added as custom columns on the relevant Board. Activities are loaded to the Activity Log Board as Items with the source Account or Contact linked via a Link column. We implement batch sizing based on API complexity limits, use exponential backoff on 429 responses, and pause between phases to emit row-count reconciliation reports. Attachments are loaded as File column uploads or URL references depending on size.
Cutover, validation, and automation inventory handoff
We freeze EBS CRM write access during the cutover window, run a delta migration for any records modified during the migration, and hand over the Monday.com CRM Board to the customer's team as the system of record. We deliver a structured inventory of every Oracle Workflow (with trigger, routing conditions, and approver list), Territory definition (with hierarchy and assignment rules), and Forecast record (with version and amount) that could not migrate as code. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Oracle Workflows as Monday.com Automations inside the migration scope; that work is documented and handed off for the customer's admin to rebuild using the new Monday.com automation builder.
