Overview
Teams migrate from Rechat to Monday CRM when they want a more flexible, visual workspace that extends beyond real estate-specific tooling into broader sales and operations tracking. Rechat stores contacts, companies, deals, activities, and custom fields — including MLS IDs and agent assignments — in a structured object model. Monday CRM represents all data as Items organized into Boards, with columns acting as fields and Groups organizing records by status or type. The migration carries Rechat contacts as People Items, companies as Organization Items, and deals as Items on a dedicated Deals board, with each Rechat custom field becoming a Monday column. Rechat's email metadata, call logs, and meeting records map to subitems or activity columns on the relevant deal or contact Items. Monday's daily API rate limits (1,000 calls on Basic/Standard, 10,000 on Pro) govern migration throughput, and lower-tier automation budgets mean teams should plan automation rebuilds after go-live. FlitStack AI sequences the migration to respect Monday's complexity limits and delivers a field-level diff before committing the full run.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Rechat 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.
Rechat
Contact
monday CRM
People Item (Boards)
1:1Rechat Contact records map directly to Monday CRM People Items. Each contact's name, email, phone, and status fields become columns on the People board. Owner resolution matches Rechat user emails to Monday workspace members so the assigned agent maps correctly.
Rechat
Company (Brokerage)
monday CRM
Organization Item (Boards)
1:1Rechat Company objects represent brokerages, holding companies, and affiliated service providers. These map to Monday Organization Items on the Organizations board, preserving company name, website domain, physical address, city, and state as typed columns. Brokerage-specific fields like number of agents and brokerage license numbers migrate as additional custom numeric and text columns on the Organization Item.
Rechat
Deal
monday CRM
Deal Item (Dedicated Deals Board)
1:1Rechat Deal records — including deal name, amount, stage, close date, and associated contact — migrate as Items on a dedicated Deals board in Monday CRM. Each Rechat pipeline maps to a Group within the Deals board, and deal stage values become column selections within that Group.
Rechat
Pipeline
monday CRM
Board Group
1:1Rechat pipelines define a sequence of deal stages. In Monday CRM, each pipeline becomes a Group within its board. Stage names are stored as column values (status or dropdown columns) scoped to that Group. Multi-pipeline Rechat accounts require one Deals board per pipeline.
Rechat
Pipeline Stage
monday CRM
Status Column Value (per Group)
1:1Stage names from each Rechat pipeline map to specific Status column selections. Value mapping is performed per pipeline since Monday Status columns are board-level but filtered by Group. Stage order and probability metadata are preserved as additional numeric or text columns.
Rechat
Custom Field (MLS ID, Agent Tier)
monday CRM
Board Column
1:1Rechat custom fields — including MLS Listing IDs, Agent Tier levels, and Brokerage License numbers — require new columns in Monday CRM. Column type is chosen by data type: text for IDs, dropdown for tier levels, and date for license expiry dates. Monday's dependency configuration is available for linked field logic.
Rechat
Email Activity (metadata)
monday CRM
Activity Subitem or Column on Contact
1:1Rechat saves email metadata (subject, date, teaser body preview) rather than full message content. Email records attach as subitems or rich-text columns on the relevant People Item in Monday CRM, preserving the original timestamp, sender address, recipient, and thread reference for complete activity audit trails and conversation continuity after migration.
Rechat
Call / Meeting Activity
monday CRM
Subitem or Activity Column on Deal/Contact
1:1Rechat call logs (duration, direction, outcome) and meeting records (date, attendees, notes) migrate as subitems on the linked Deal or Contact Item in Monday CRM. Original timestamps and agent assignments are preserved so the activity timeline remains continuous after cutover.
Rechat
User / Agent (Owner)
monday CRM
Workspace Member
1:1Rechat user records containing agent names, email addresses, and role assignments map to Monday workspace members by email match. Inactive Rechat users are flagged and documented before migration so that Monday accounts can be provisioned in advance, preventing orphaned deal and contact ownership assignments during the cutover window.
Rechat
Attachment / File
monday CRM
Monday Files (on Item)
1:1Rechat file attachments are re-uploaded to Monday CRM as Files attached to the relevant Item. Files are base64-encoded during migration and stored against the People, Organization, or Deal Item they were linked to in Rechat. Maximum file size per Monday's storage limits applies.
Rechat
Workflow / Automation (Rechat Flow)
monday CRM
Not Migrated
1:1Rechat automations (Flow-based triggers on MLS updates, listing changes, and deal stage transitions) have no equivalent in Monday CRM's automation builder. Monday's automation triggers and conditions follow a different event model. FlitStack exports Rechat Flow definitions as a reference document for manual rebuild in Monday's Automations center.

Migration approach
Audit Rechat data model and enumerate custom fields
FlitStack AI connects to Rechat via API and inventories every Contact, Company, Deal, and Activity record, including custom fields, pipeline definitions, and user accounts. We generate a schema manifest that maps each Rechat object to the appropriate Monday board structure, flags MLS-specific custom fields for Monday column creation, and identifies owner email matches against the destination Monday workspace. This audit determines the total API call volume and drives the migration batch plan against Monday's rate limits.
Provision Monday boards and configure column schema
Before data lands, FlitStack AI creates the required boards in Monday CRM — a People board, an Organizations board, and one Deals board per Rechat pipeline. Each board's column types are configured to match the Rechat source fields: text for IDs, dropdowns for status and stage values, dates for timestamps, and numeric columns for amounts. Custom fields not native to Monday (MLS IDs, agent tiers, license numbers) are created as new columns in this step so the schema is ready before mapping begins.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 100–300 records spanning contacts, organizations, deals, and a selection of activities — migrates first. FlitStack AI generates a field-level diff comparing each Rechat record against the corresponding Monday Item, verifying that custom column values populated correctly, that Status column values match Rechat stage names per Group, and that owner resolution matched by email produced the correct Assigned To assignment. The diff is reviewed with your team before the full run commits.
Execute full migration with delta-pickup window
The full dataset migrates to Monday CRM in API-rate-compliant batches. Once the primary migration completes, a delta-pickup window of 24–48 hours captures any Rechat records created or modified during the cutover. FlitStack AI applies the delta against Monday, then runs a reconciliation check comparing record counts and field values against the source manifest. An audit log records every operation, and one-click rollback reverts Monday to the pre-migration state if reconciliation reveals data quality issues.
Deliver automation rebuild reference and go-live handoff
FlitStack AI exports all Rechat Flow definitions — triggers, conditions, and actions — as a structured JSON reference document. This document serves as the blueprint for your Monday admin to rebuild automations in Monday's Automations center, prioritizing lead routing, stage-change notifications, and MLS-update triggers first. The handoff package also includes the field-mapping spreadsheet, the Monday board configuration plan, and a post-migration validation checklist covering record counts, owner assignments, and file attachment integrity.
