Overview
Pega Platform is an enterprise BPM and RPA platform built around cases, assignments, and data pages. Monday CRM is a Work OS with CRM capabilities centered on boards, items, and columns. These platforms serve fundamentally different operational models, which makes migration a data-model translation problem rather than a direct field-mapping exercise. FlitStack AI extracts your Pega work objects and case properties, maps them to Monday CRM entities (Contacts, Companies, Deals), and converts data pages to custom fields on the appropriate Monday board. Historical case data that represents customer interactions becomes deal or contact history entries in Monday. Pega's workflow and case-type logic has no Monday equivalent — we export your Pega ruleset and workflow definitions as documentation your Monday admin can use to rebuild automations in Monday's no-code automation builder. Monday's API rate limits (1,000–25,000 daily calls depending on plan) and account export timing (up to 24 hours) shape the migration sequencing, so we batch writes and run exports during off-peak hours to avoid hitting complexity limits during cutover.
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 Pega Platform 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.
Pega Platform
Work Object (Case)
monday CRM
Deal (Monday CRM board item)
1:1Pega cases become Monday Deal items on the appropriate board. Each case type maps to a specific Monday board, with case properties translated to board columns that match the data type. Closed or resolved Pega cases migrate as historical deal records with the final status preserved as a read-only column value. This maintains the complete audit trail while keeping active and archived cases clearly distinguished in Monday's Kanban or Table views.
Pega Platform
Work Party (Contact reference)
monday CRM
Contact (Monday CRM)
1:1Pega work parties with the Customer role map directly to Monday CRM Contacts. Each work party's name, email address, phone number, and organization details become corresponding Contact fields. When a single case has multiple work parties assigned (such as multiple stakeholders or contacts), each party generates a separate but linked Contact record in Monday CRM. The linking maintains the relationship between the Deal item and all associated Contact records for complete relationship visibility.
Pega Platform
Data Page (Embedded data)
monday CRM
Custom Column or Linked Item
1:manyPega data pages holding related records such as line items, related contacts, or nested objects decompose into either separate Monday items linked to the parent Deal or multi-select columns depending on the data structure. We analyze the data page's cardinality during schema design — one-to-many relationships (e.g., a case with multiple line items) become linked sub-items, many-to-one relationships become a lookup dropdown column referencing items on a related board, and complex multi-level data pages are flattened to maintain compatibility with Monday's sub-item depth limits.
Pega Platform
Case Properties (Standard fields)
monday CRM
Board Columns (Standard CRM fields)
1:1Pega built-in system case properties like pxCreateDateTime, pxUpdateDateTime, pxAssignedUserID, and pzInsKey map to Monday native columns (Created date, Last updated, Assigned to, Item ID). These system properties are preserved during migration to maintain reporting continuity, audit trails, and data lineage tracking. The pzInsKey serves as the unique source system identifier, enabling delta-migration runs and preventing duplicate record creation when the Monday workspace is updated post-cutover.
Pega Platform
Custom Case Properties
monday CRM
Custom Columns (Monday CRM)
1:1Pega custom properties including text, integer, decimal, date, Boolean, and currency types map to Monday column types that match the underlying data type. Long text fields become Monday Long Text columns, integer and decimal properties become Numbers columns with appropriate precision, date properties become Date columns, Boolean properties become Checkbox columns, and pick-list or drop-down values from Pega become Monday Dropdown columns with the exact same option values preserved. This ensures data integrity and enables proper filtering and grouping in Monday board views.
Pega Platform
Assignment (Task/Step)
monday CRM
Task item on Deals board
1:1Pega assignments represent work steps within a case. Each assignment becomes a Task subitem on the corresponding Deal in Monday CRM, with the assignment name as the task title and the due date from the SLA. Completed assignment status is preserved.
Pega Platform
Case History (Audit)
monday CRM
Updates/Activity Log on Deal item
1:1Pega's case history log (pxLogData) containing all status changes, assignments, and user actions migrates as Updates on the corresponding Monday Deal item's Activity log. Each history entry becomes a timestamped note with the performing user's name, action taken, and the case status at that time. This preserves the full audit trail from Pega, enabling compliance teams and sales managers to review the complete interaction history directly within Monday CRM without needing to reference the original Pega system.
Pega Platform
Pega Robotic Automation
monday CRM
No equivalent in Monday CRM
1:1Pega RPA packages including robotDesktopAutomation and roboticAutomation run attended or unattended bots that interact with legacy applications. These automation components have no direct equivalent in Monday CRM, which lacks bot-runner infrastructure for screen scraping or desktop automation. We document the complete RPA configuration including trigger conditions, target application credentials, action sequences, and exception handling logic as a structured reference. Your team can use this documentation to evaluate rebuilding automations using Monday's native integrations, Zapier/Make connectors, Power Automate, or a dedicated RPA platform post-migration.
Pega Platform
Decision Rules and Decision Tables
monday CRM
No equivalent in Monday CRM
1:1Pega's decision components including Decision Trees, Decision Tables, Decision Matrices, and Next-Best-Action rules encode complex business logic within the BPM engine. These components evaluate input properties against rule sets to determine actions, routing, or offer eligibility. Monday CRM has no native decisioning or rules engine capability. We export all decision rule definitions as structured JSON and spreadsheet documentation, identifying input properties, output actions, condition logic, and priority sequences so your Monday admin can reconstruct the decision logic as conditional automations or external decision services post-migration.
Pega Platform
Pega SLA Definition
monday CRM
Monday Column + Automation reminder
1:1Pega SLA milestones map to Date columns and Automation triggers in Monday. The SLA deadline date migrates as a Due Date column; we configure a Monday automation to send a notification when that date approaches, approximating Pega's SLA escalation behavior.
Pega Platform
Pega Section/UI Definition
monday CRM
No equivalent in Monday CRM
1:1Pega screen layouts, harnesses, and portals define the UI presentation. Monday CRM uses board views and item cards instead. We export your Pega section configurations as a UI reference document, but the presentation layer must be rebuilt in Monday's board and column setup.
Pega Platform
Pega Report Definition
monday CRM
Monday Dashboard
1:1Pega Report Definitions summarize case data. We map the underlying data objects to Monday Dashboard widgets — chart views on the Deals board aggregate the same metrics. Complex Pega reports with cross-object joins may require dashboard rebuild by your Monday admin.

Migration approach
Extract Pega case types and data page schema
We connect to your Pega environment via REST API using service-side credentials. FlitStack reads the case type definitions, custom property schemas, work party configurations, and data page structures. We produce a Pega Schema Manifest listing every case type, property, data page, and relationship that will appear in Monday. This manifest is your migration contract — nothing gets missed before we move to mapping.
Design Monday board and column schema from Pega schema manifest
FlitStack generates a Monday Board Design Plan that maps each Pega case type to a Monday CRM board, specifies column types for every property, identifies which pick-list values need value mapping, and flags data pages that require linked-item or custom-column treatment. Your Monday admin approves and creates the boards and columns before data lands. This step typically takes 1–3 days depending on board complexity.
Export Pega work objects, assignments, and history via bulk API
Using Pega's bulk REST API and Data Flow export capabilities, FlitStack extracts work object records in batches of up to 1,000 cases per request. Each record is normalized to the migration schema: case properties become column values, work parties become linked Contact records, and assignments become Task sub-items with due dates from the SLA. Historical case logs (pxLogData) are exported as audit notes with timestamps and performing user IDs. We run exports during off-peak hours and throttle request frequency to avoid impacting Pega system performance or triggering throttling on the Pega API endpoint.
Run a sample migration with field-level diff to Monday test workspace
A representative sample (typically 100–500 records spanning your main case types) migrates to a dedicated Monday test workspace that mirrors your production board structure. FlitStack generates a field-level diff comparing source Pega values against Monday column values, flagging any mismatches in pick-list options, date formats, or required field validation. You verify pick-list mapping accuracy, linked-item resolution, SLA date column formatting, and the appearance of custom property columns before the full run commits. Any adjustments to the mapping plan — including value mapping additions or transformation rule changes — are documented and applied before any live data moves.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full Pega dataset migrates to your production Monday workspace. A delta-pickup window (24–48 hours) captures any Pega cases created or updated during the cutover window. FlitStack logs every operation — record created, record updated, linked item attached — in an audit spreadsheet. One-click rollback reverts the Monday workspace to pre-migration state if reconciliation uncovers data integrity issues. After rollback window closes, your Pega instance is read-only for historical reference.
