Overview
Moving from RAYNET CRM to Monday.com CRM is a structural migration from a record-centric CRM model to a board-and-item Work OS with CRM capabilities layered on top. RAYNET stores Contacts and Accounts as discrete objects with a lifecycle stage property; Monday.com CRM represents the same entities as items on boards with status columns, person columns, and link-to-item relationships. We restructure the source schema into Monday's board-and-column format, preserve RAYNET's GPS coordinates (auto-derived from addresses in Map Analysis) as custom address fields in the destination, and sequence parent records before children to satisfy lookup dependencies. RAYNET Automation rules (Builder and Architect tiers) do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of every active automation with its trigger, conditions, and a recommended Monday.com Automation Center equivalent so the customer's team can rebuild before cutover. API-based migration via Monday's REST API with rate-limit handling handles the data transfer, supplemented by XLSX export for large record sets that approach RAYNET's billed API call limits.
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 RAYNET 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.
RAYNET CRM
Contact
monday CRM
Person item on Contacts board
1:1RAYNET Contact records (name, email, phone, address, lifecycle stage) map to Monday.com CRM Person items on a dedicated Contacts board. The person column type in Monday.com CRM stores name and email natively. Lifecycle stage from RAYNET maps to a custom status or dropdown column in Monday since Monday does not have a native lifecycle stage property. RAYNET GPS coordinates derived from address (Map Analysis) are preserved as separate address subfields in the destination contact record.
RAYNET CRM
Account (Company)
monday CRM
Organization item on Accounts board
1:1RAYNET Account (Company) records map to Monday.com CRM Organization items on a Companies board. Organization items in Monday.com store company name, domain, and associated contacts. Account-Contact relationship is preserved by linking Person items to their parent Organization item using Monday's link-to-item column. We sequence Accounts into Monday before Contacts to satisfy the organization link dependency.
RAYNET CRM
Deal (Opportunity)
monday CRM
Item in Deals pipeline board
1:1RAYNET Deals map to items in a Monday.com CRM Deals board structured as a pipeline. The RAYNET pipeline stage becomes a Status column value in Monday, and deal value maps to a Numbers column. Probability migrates as a custom numbers column if the customer requires it. If the customer is on RAYNET START or PROFESSIONAL (single pipeline), we create one Deals board in Monday; if ENTERPRISE with multiple pipelines, we create one board per RAYNET pipeline and coordinate the board count with the customer during scoping.
RAYNET CRM
Activity: Calls, Emails, Meetings
monday CRM
Item updates and linked items on Activity board
1:1RAYNET activity records (Call, Email, Meeting) linked to Contacts and Accounts do not have a direct Monday.com CRM equivalent object. We migrate activity data as items on an Activity board linked via link-to-item to the relevant Contact and Account items. Activity type, subject/body, timestamp, duration, and outcome map to text, date, and numbers columns on the activity item. The customer's admin may alternatively prefer to attach activity summaries as document items or notes on the contact record, depending on their preferred timeline representation in Monday.
RAYNET CRM
Sales Order
monday CRM
Item in Orders board
1:1RAYNET Sales Order records (Subject, Final Price, Status, Estimated Costs, Delivery Date, Shipping/Billing address) map to items in a dedicated Orders board in Monday. Sales Order status maps to a Status column, price and cost map to Numbers columns, and dates map to Date columns. Shipping and billing addresses migrate as separate text or address subfields.
RAYNET CRM
Quote
monday CRM
Item in Quotes board linked to Deals
1:1RAYNET Quote records linked to Deals and Accounts map to items in a Quotes board in Monday. Validity dates migrate as Date columns, line-item pricing migrates as a subitem structure or Numbers column, and the quote-to-deal relationship uses Monday's link-to-item column to connect the Quote item to the corresponding Deal item.
RAYNET CRM
Custom Fields
monday CRM
Custom columns on respective boards
lossyRAYNET custom fields on Contact and Account records are extracted via list export and mapped to equivalent Monday.com column types: text properties become Text columns, dates become Date columns, dropdown lists become Dropdown or Status columns, and multi-select values become Multi-select columns. We create the column schema in each destination board before data import begins. Custom field value mapping is documented in a field-level mapping table delivered with the migration scope.
RAYNET CRM
Owner (User)
monday CRM
Monday.com team member assigned via People column
1:1RAYNET User accounts with role assignments and deal ownership map to Monday.com account members. We resolve RAYNET Owner email to Monday.com user by email match during migration. Any RAYNET Owner without a matching Monday.com user is held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to provision before record import continues. Person and numeric columns showing assigned owner in Monday are populated during this resolution pass.
RAYNET CRM
Tag
monday CRM
Multi-select column on respective board item
lossyRAYNET tags on Contacts and Deals migrate as Multi-select column values on the corresponding Monday.com board items. We extract the distinct tag values from RAYNET list export, create matching Multi-select options in Monday during schema setup, and populate the column during import. The customer chooses whether tags representing marketing segments map to Monday Topics instead during scoping.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and scope definition
We audit the source RAYNET CRM account across tier (START/PROFESSIONAL/ENTERPRISE), record counts per object, active Automation rules, custom field schema, pipeline stage configuration, and API call usage. We pair this with a review of the customer's intended Monday.com CRM board structure, seat count, and any existing Monday.com workspace. The discovery output is a written migration scope document with object counts, board-level structure, and a flag for any ENTERPRISE-tier constraints (multiple pipelines, custom objects) that require scope negotiation before migration begins.
Schema design and board structure mapping
We design the Monday.com CRM board architecture based on the discovered RAYNET schema. This includes provisioning the Contacts board (Person items), Companies board (Organization items), Deals board (pipeline board with Status columns mapped to RAYNET pipeline stages), Orders board, Quotes board, and an Activity board. We create the column schema in each board, including custom columns for RAYNET custom fields and lifecycle stage preservation. Column types are mapped from RAYNET field types during this phase, and the board structure is reviewed and approved by the customer before any data import begins.
Data extraction and transformation
We extract data from RAYNET CRM via the platform's list export (XLSX) for standard objects and via API for large record sets where rate limits are pre-negotiated. XLSX export is the primary extraction method for migrations approaching RAYNET's API call cap ($50/month for each 10,000 additional requests). We transform each record set against the Monday.com board schema, apply lifecycle stage mapping, GPS coordinate preservation, and tag-to-multi-select conversion. Duplicates are flagged and deduplicated before import using email as the primary dedupe key for Contacts and company name plus domain for Accounts.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a Monday.com test workspace using the extracted data volume. The customer reconciles record counts (Contacts in, Accounts in, Deals in, Activity items in), spot-checks 25-50 random records against the RAYNET source for field accuracy, and reviews the board structure and column mapping. GPS coordinate preservation and lifecycle stage mapping are validated during this phase. Any mapping corrections are applied to the transformation script before the production migration begins. This step prevents correction cycles in the live account.
Production migration in dependency order
We run the production migration in dependency order: Accounts (Organizations) first, then Contacts (Persons) with organization link resolved, then Deals (pipeline items) with contact and account links resolved, then Orders and Quotes, then Activity items. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. We use Monday.com's API with rate-limit handling and exponential backoff for API-based imports, supplemented by Monday's native CSV import for boards within the platform's supported import size limits. Owner assignments are resolved by email against Monday.com workspace members during the relevant phase.
Automation inventory delivery and cutover
We deliver the Automation Rules inventory document listing every active RAYNET Automation rule with its trigger type, conditions, actions, and recommended Monday.com Automation Center equivalent. We do not rebuild automations as part of the migration scope; this document equips the customer's admin to recreate them in Monday before go-live. We support a brief hypercare window where we resolve any reconciliation issues raised by the customer's team during the first week of live use. Cutover includes a final data freeze on RAYNET and a delta migration of any records modified during the migration window.
