Overview
Taguchi and Monday.com CRM have incompatible data models that require deliberate mapping during migration. Taguchi organizes contacts around Subscribers with per-contact behavioral Activities, key-value Custom Fields, and immutable List Memberships. Monday.com CRM uses a board-and-item architecture where People, Companies, Deals, and Engagements live as items on boards with typed columns. We map Taguchi Subscribers to Monday.com People, Taguchi Organizations to Monday.com Companies, and Taguchi Activities to Monday.com Activity Log entries. List memberships migrate as Tags on People records, with the customer choosing whether to import as a single multi-select property or multiple boolean toggles. Bounced subscriber flags from Taguchi write as a suppressed-contact property on the destination to prevent domain blocklisting. We do not migrate Taguchi automation workflows or SMS campaign logic; these require manual rebuild in Monday.com's native automation builder.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Taguchi 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.
Taguchi
Subscriber
monday CRM
Person (People item)
1:1Taguchi Subscribers migrate as Monday.com CRM People items on the CRM board. The subscriber email becomes the Person email field, status (active/bounced/unsubscribed) maps to a contact status column. We preserve the original Taguchi subscriber ID in a custom field for reconciliation. Active and unsubscribed subscribers import normally; bounced subscribers are flagged but quarantined for admin review before activation to prevent domain blocklisting on the new sending infrastructure.
Taguchi
Organization
monday CRM
Company
1:1Taguchi Organizations map to Monday.com CRM Companies. Each Organization's name and metadata migrate as Company fields. We link each Person item to its corresponding Company via the People-Company relationship column during migration. If a Subscriber has no Organization link in Taguchi, we create a placeholder Company or leave the relationship empty per the customer's scoping decision.
Taguchi
Custom Fields
monday CRM
People Columns
lossyTaguchi key-value custom fields per Subscriber map to typed Monday.com People columns. We analyze each Taguchi field's value distribution during discovery to assign the correct Monday.com column type (text, number, date, multi-select, link). Soft-deleted Taguchi fields (removed from UI but persisting on subscriber profiles) are reconstructed as archived columns in Monday.com with null values on migrated records to preserve data completeness.
Taguchi
List Membership
monday CRM
Tag (People item)
lossyTaguchi List Memberships are append-only associations between Subscribers and Lists. We export the full list of memberships during discovery and present the customer with two migration options: a single multi-select Tag column listing all list names per Person, or multiple boolean (checkbox) columns per list name. List names migrate as-is; the customer chooses the strategy during scoping. Tag cleanup in Monday.com after migration is fully editable, unlike Taguchi's immutable membership model.
Taguchi
Cluster
monday CRM
Tag or Custom Column (People item)
lossyTaguchi Clusters identify the subscriber segment a contact is most strongly associated with. We map this as a Tag on the Monday.com People item or a dedicated segment column, depending on whether the customer uses clusters for primary classification (tag) or secondary classification (custom column). The customer confirms during scoping.
Taguchi
Activity (opens, clicks, custom events)
monday CRM
Activity Log (People item)
1:1Taguchi logs per-subscriber behavioral Activities used to drive automation triggers. We extract the full activity history (event type, timestamp, campaign association) and write each event as an Activity Log entry on the corresponding Monday.com People item. The Activity Log preserves the timeline sequence and event description. Custom event types from Taguchi become Activity Log entries with the event name preserved as the activity label.
Taguchi
Broadcast
monday CRM
Activity Log (People item)
1:1Taguchi one-time email broadcasts are migrated as aggregate Activity Log entries on People items rather than as standalone records, since Monday.com CRM does not have a native broadcast campaign object. We preserve broadcast name, send date, and recipient count metadata as a note or custom column on the relevant People items for audit purposes.
Taguchi
Campaign
monday CRM
Activity Log or Link Column (People item)
1:1Taguchi Campaigns link subscribers and activities. We migrate campaign associations as Activity Log entries on each People item with the campaign name and a link back to any campaign documentation the customer provides. Monday.com CRM does not have a native Campaign object; if the customer requires campaign-level reporting, we document the campaign association for rebuild in Monday.com's dashboard tools.

Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
Taguchi gotchas
Bounced subscriber flag is permanent without Taguchi Support
Custom fields persist on deletion and cannot be hard-deleted
List membership is append-only — no deletion via API
No publicly documented bulk export endpoint
monday CRM gotchas
Subitems are not included in bulk exports

Migration approach
Discovery and schema mapping
We audit the Taguchi account across Subscribers, Organizations, Custom Fields, List Memberships, Clusters, Activities, Broadcasts, and Campaigns. We extract the full subscriber list via paginated API iteration with cursor-based pagination. We document the custom field schema (including soft-deleted fields still persisting on records), the list of active memberships per subscriber, and the activity event types present. We pair this with a Monday.com CRM board structure assessment to determine which People columns to create and how to map each Taguchi field.
Schema creation in Monday.com CRM
We create the People board structure in Monday.com CRM before any data import. This includes provisioning typed columns for each Taguchi custom field (assigned by value-type analysis during discovery), a multi-select or boolean-tag strategy for list memberships, a contact status column with values mapped from Taguchi subscriber status, and a custom column preserving the original Taguchi subscriber ID for reconciliation. We create the Companies board with fields mapped from Taguchi Organizations. The schema is built in the customer's live Monday.com account during a planned window.
Sandbox migration and reconciliation
We run a full migration into a test workspace within the customer's Monday.com account using a representative subset of records. The customer's team lead spot-checks 25-50 migrated records against the Taguchi source, validates column mappings, and confirms the list membership tagging strategy. We correct any mapping errors before production migration begins. This step prevents data quality issues from propagating to live records.
Bounced-subscriber quarantine and owner mapping
We extract all bounced subscribers from Taguchi during the export phase and write them to a separate quarantine People group in Monday.com CRM with a suppressed-contact status flag. Active and unsubscribed subscribers migrate to the primary People group. We also map Taguchi Organization owners to Monday.com CRM team members by email where applicable, with unmapped owners flagged for admin provisioning.
Production migration in dependency order
We run production migration in record order: Companies (from Taguchi Organizations) first, then People (from Taguchi Subscribers) with Company links resolved, then Activity Log entries (from Taguchi Activities) linked to the migrated People items. List memberships write last using the chosen tagging strategy. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report against the discovery baseline before the next phase begins.
Cutover, validation, and automation rebuild handoff
We freeze Taguchi as the write system during cutover, run a delta migration for any records modified during the migration window, then enable Monday.com CRM as the system of record. We deliver the automation inventory document listing every Taguchi automation with trigger conditions, rules, and recommended Monday.com automation equivalents. We support a one-week post-go-live window for reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild Taguchi automations as Monday.com automations inside the migration scope.
