Overview
Simpleview CRM and Monday.com CRM have fundamentally different data architectures. Simpleview is a vertical DMO platform built around Member Accounts, Listings, Events, and Opportunities tied to a destination organization; Monday.com CRM is a board-based Work OS that represents Contacts, Companies, Deals, and Projects as Items on customizable Boards. There is no direct object equivalence — Member Accounts map to Organizations with secondary Items, Listings map to Items grouped by Company, and DMO-specific pipeline stages for conventions, sports, and travel trade require manual board configuration at the destination. We extract all Custom_Account and Custom_Account_MS fields during the audit phase, map amenity vocabulary to Monday tags or labels, and sequence the import so that parent records (Organizations, Contacts) exist before child records (Items, Deals) are inserted. Workflows tied to pipeline stages, native Cvent and Momentus Elite integrations, and the Simpleview Extranet portal do not migrate — we deliver a written inventory of every workflow and integration requiring rebuild.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Simpleview 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.
Simpleview CRM
Member Accounts
monday CRM
Organization + Contact
1:1Simpleview Member Accounts map to Monday.com CRM Organizations as the primary record. Each Organization carries name, address, and contact metadata. The primary contact person from the Member Account maps to a Contact record linked to the Organization. Standard fields (account name, billing address, phone) migrate cleanly. Any Custom_Account fields are extracted per-client during the audit phase and mapped to Monday column types — text fields to Text columns, dates to Date columns, currency values to Number columns with currency formatting.
Simpleview CRM
Listings
monday CRM
Item (on Organization Board)
1:manySimpleview Listings are partner/member directory entries tied to a Member Account via AcctID. In Monday.com CRM, Listings map to Items on a Partner Listings board, grouped by or linked to the corresponding Organization. The Listing's amenity data (Amenity_MS multi-select) maps to Monday Labels or Tags columns after vocabulary remapping. We extract the source amenity vocabulary, deduplicate it, and map each value to a destination Label option — unmapped amenities are flagged for manual review before the final import.
Simpleview CRM
Opportunities
monday CRM
Deal
1:1Simpleview CRM Opportunities cover DMO-specific pipelines: conventions, sports, travel trade, and group business. Pipeline stages are client-defined and vary per organization. We collect the customer's current pipeline stage definitions during discovery, then configure Monday.com CRM Deal pipelines (as Kanban columns on the Deals board) to match the source stage names and order. Closed-Lost and Closed-Won stage data migrate with the Deal. Amount and expected close date map directly to Deal fields.
Simpleview CRM
Events
monday CRM
Item (on Events Board)
1:1Simpleview Events are first-class objects with integrations to Cvent, Eventbooking, and Meetingmax. Event registrations link to Members. In Monday.com CRM, Events map to Items on an Events board with Date columns for event start/end, Location data to a Location column, and registration counts to Number columns. Event registrations (attendee-to-event associations) migrate as Items or as a linked relationship between the Contact (attendee) and the Event Item via a Connect Boards column or a tag. The Cvent and Eventbooking integration data does not migrate — we document the integration endpoints as requiring manual rebuild in Monday.
Simpleview CRM
Coupons
monday CRM
Item (on Offers Board)
1:manySimpleview Coupons link to both a ListingID and an AcctID with date ranges (RedeemStart, RedeemEnd, PostStart, PostEnd) and category metadata. OfferText may contain HTML. In Monday.com CRM, Coupons map to Items on an Offers board linked to the corresponding Organization (AcctID) and Listing Item (ListingID) via relation columns. Date ranges migrate as Start Date and End Date columns; the HTML body text is imported as a Long Text column. Coupon status (active, expired) is derived from the date fields against the migration date and set as a Status column value.
Simpleview CRM
Custom_Account fields
monday CRM
Board Columns (custom)
lossyFields under Custom_Account and Custom_Account_MS are defined per organization with no standardized schema. During the audit phase we extract every custom field definition, determine the appropriate Monday column type (Text, Number, Date, Label, Dropdown, Checkbox, Link), and generate a client-specific field map. Multi-select Custom_Account_MS fields (such as amenity arrays) map to Monday Labels columns with each option mapped individually. The customer approves the field map before migration begins.
Simpleview CRM
Attachments / Documents
monday CRM
File Upload Column or External Link
1:1Simpleview DAM handles digital assets stored against Member Accounts or Events. We extract file references and URLs during data extraction. Where API access permits file downloads, we re-upload to Monday.com CRM using the File Upload column on the relevant Item. For large files or documents where re-upload is not feasible, we set an External Link column pointing to the original URL with a flag for manual verification post-migration. File attachments exceeding Monday's storage tier limits are noted in the migration scope.
Simpleview CRM
Partner Portal Data (Extranet)
monday CRM
Organization + Item annotations
1:1The Simpleview Extranet stores partner-submitted enrollment records, co-op campaign signups, and online payment data as action records rather than static records. We extract the underlying account and listing data that the portal references, but the portal's self-service interface, enrollment workflows, and co-op campaign automation do not migrate. We deliver a written map of the Extranet data model so the customer's Monday admin can configure equivalent forms, enrollment Items, and campaign tracking boards.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and credential acquisition
We audit the Simpleview CRM portal through the client's project manager to obtain API credentials (SOAP or XML-NVP transport), identify all Member Accounts, Listings, Events, Opportunities, Coupons, and custom field definitions. We enumerate the current pipeline stages, amenity vocabulary, and active Extranet integrations. Simultaneously, we establish a Monday.com CRM workspace and confirm the destination admin has created the initial Boards structure so that our schema mapping can reference real board and column IDs. The discovery output is a written migration scope document covering record counts, custom field inventory, pipeline stage definitions, and amenity vocabulary.
Schema translation and board configuration planning
We translate the Simpleview data model into Monday.com CRM board structures: an Organizations board (for Member Accounts), a Partner Listings board (for Listings grouped by Organization), a Deals board (for Opportunities with DMO pipeline columns), an Events board (for Events with date and location columns), and an Offers board (for Coupons linked to Organizations and Listings). We define the column types for every standard and custom field — mapping Custom_Account text fields to Text columns, dates to Date columns, multi-select amenity arrays to Labels columns, and currency amounts to Number columns with currency formatting. The customer approves the board and column configuration before any data is extracted.
Data extraction from Simpleview CRM
We extract all record types from Simpleview CRM using the client's assigned API credentials and transport method. Records are pulled in dependency order: Member Accounts first (parent records), then Listings (linked to AccountID), then Events (with attendee associations), then Opportunities (with pipeline stage), then Coupons (with ListingID and AcctID references), and finally Attachments (file URLs). Each extraction run is reconciled against the discovery record count to confirm completeness. Custom_Account_MS amenity arrays are extracted as comma-separated values for vocabulary remapping. Any extraction errors are logged and re-run before transformation begins.
Data transformation and vocabulary remapping
We transform the extracted Simpleview records into Monday.com CRM import format. Member Accounts become Organizations; Listings become Items on the Partner Listings board with Labels assigned from the remapped amenity vocabulary; Events become Items on the Events board with Date columns; Opportunities become Deals on the Deals board with stage columns matching the Simpleview pipeline; Coupons become Items on the Offers board with date-range columns and status derived from the migration date. Multi-select amenity values are split and mapped to Monday Label options. HTML body text in Coupons is stripped of unsupported tags and imported as plain text or preserved as rich text where the destination column supports it.
Staging import and reconciliation
We run a full import into a Monday.com CRM staging environment (a separate workspace the customer creates for validation) before production migration. We verify that Organizations, Listings Items, Deals, Events, and Offers all land in the correct boards with correct column values. Record counts are reconciled against the source extraction totals. The customer spot-checks 25-50 records against the Simpleview source and signs off before production migration begins. Any mapping corrections — missed Labels, wrong column types, missing date values — are fixed in the transformation layer at this stage.
Production migration and cutover
We run the production migration in the same dependency order as extraction: Organizations first, then Listings Items, then Deals, then Events, then Offers, then Attachments (file URLs). Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. We freeze Simpleview CRM write access during the cutover window and run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window. After cutover, we deliver the automation inventory document and integration handoff document to the customer's Monday.com admin team. We do not rebuild Simpleview workflows in Monday as part of the migration scope.
