Overview

What this migration involves

Total Control Pro is a cloud MRP and MES platform built for discrete manufacturers; it stores CRM-adjacent data (Customers, Products, Supplier records) alongside its core manufacturing objects (Work Orders, Bills of Materials, Production Schedules, Manufacturing Intelligence Module KPIs). Monday.com CRM is a board-based CRM built on monday.com's work management infrastructure, with CRM entities for Contacts, Companies (Accounts), Deals (Opportunities), and Activities that can be embedded in boards or stand as dedicated CRM boards. The fundamental migration challenge is that Total Control Pro has no documented public API: all data export must be performed through manual CSV exports from the UI, which requires a vendor cooperation letter and fallback CSV scoping for each module. We extract Customer records, Product definitions, historical Deal data, and Activity records from Total Control Pro, normalise them into Monday.com's board-column format, and load them through the Monday.com API or CSV import. Manufacturing-specific objects (Work Orders, BOMs, Production Schedules, MIM KPIs) do not have direct Monday.com CRM equivalents; we deliver them as structured CSV exports alongside the transactional migration and document which records your admin should manually board into Monday.com or keep in a separate operational system. Automations, workflow rules, and integration configurations do not migrate from Total Control Pro because the platform exposes no migration-accessible API for them.

Why teams make this switch

Two sides of the same decision

Leaving

Total Control Pro logo

Total Control Pro

What's pushing teams away

  • No publicly documented REST or bulk API for third-party integration; data movement depends on CSV exports or direct cooperation from the vendor, which limits the integration ceiling for growing operations.
  • Reviewers report bugs during implementation, particularly when requesting newly built or custom features, and describe slow turnaround on feature development requests (Capterra UK).
  • TotalControlPro is a small company (~14 employees per ZoomInfo); support bandwidth is finite, and customers needing guaranteed enterprise SLAs may outgrow the vendor's coverage.
  • Pricing is not transparently published beyond a £15–£25/user/month starting point; full quotes depend on services, integrations, and onboarding, making procurement comparisons harder against listed competitors.
  • Heavily regulated manufacturing (medical device, aerospace primes beyond engine-tier suppliers) often requires formal audit-trail compliance documentation that the platform does not pitch as a core capability.

Choosing

monday CRM logo

monday CRM

What's pulling them in

  • Users praise the board-based visual interface for making pipeline stages immediately legible to non-technical team members without CRM training.
  • The no-code automation builder lets sales ops teams create lead routing, stage updates, and email triggers without developer involvement.
  • Integration ecosystem connects to Slack, Gmail, Outlook, and Zapier with minimal configuration, reducing friction for teams already using these tools.
  • The flexible column system lets teams build custom CRM views — deal value, close date, lead source — without needing a developer or pre-defined schema.
  • Teams already using monday Work Management can layer CRM features onto existing boards rather than starting from scratch.

Object mapping

How Total Control Pro objects map to monday CRM

Each row shows how a Total Control Pro 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.

Total Control Pro

Customers

maps to

monday CRM

Company

1:1
Fully supported

Total Control Pro Customer records (contact details, account terms, associated sales orders) map directly to Monday.com CRM Company entities. The company name, primary contact, email, phone, address, and account terms fields transfer as typed Company fields. We validate against Monday.com's duplicate-company detection using company name and domain, and flag duplicates for admin resolution before import.

Total Control Pro

Customers

maps to

monday CRM

Contact

1:1
Fully supported

Primary and secondary contact individuals attached to each Customer record in Total Control Pro map to Monday.com CRM Contact entities. Each Contact is linked to its parent Company via the Monday.com CRM Contact-to-Company relationship. Contact name, email, phone, role, and notes migrate directly; custom fields defined on the contact record in Total Control Pro map to Monday.com CRM custom fields.

Total Control Pro

Products

maps to

monday CRM

Item (CRM Product)

1:1
Fully supported

Total Control Pro Product definitions (part numbers, descriptions, unit of measure, pricing) map to Monday.com CRM Items used as products within Deals. The product name and description become the Item name; SKU becomes a custom text field; unit of measure and pricing data become custom fields on the Item. Product-to-supplier associations in Total Control Pro do not map natively and are documented in the handoff report.

Total Control Pro

Inventory

maps to

monday CRM

Item (Board-based inventory board)

lossy
Mapping required

Current stock levels, bin locations, and lot numbers from Total Control Pro are migrated as structured CSV exports and loaded into a dedicated Monday.com inventory board using numeric, text, and location columns. Live inventory movements during the migration window are queued and replayed post-cutover to avoid discrepancy. This is a board-based workaround; Monday.com CRM does not have a native inventory object, so the board schema is designed to capture the relevant columns per product SKU.

Total Control Pro

Work Orders

maps to

monday CRM

Item (Board-based work order board)

lossy
Fully supported

Work Order records (status, assigned operations, timestamps, manual overrides logged by shop-floor staff) have no direct Monday.com CRM entity equivalent. We deliver Work Order data as a structured CSV export mapped to a custom Monday.com work management board with status, priority, due date, assigned user, and notes columns. The customer's admin uses this board for post-migration visibility; it is not a CRM object but an operational reference board.

Total Control Pro

Bills of Materials

maps to

monday CRM

Item (Board-based BOM board)

lossy
Mapping required

Multi-level BOM structures with revision numbers require explicit scoping before migration. We identify the active BOM revision as of migration cutoff by querying the most recent approved revision per product, confirm with your team, and deliver BOM data as a structured CSV with parent part number, component part numbers, quantities, and revision label. This loads into a custom Monday.com board; BOM explosion (multi-level nesting) is documented separately as a manual handoff because Monday.com lacks native BOM-level structural support.

Total Control Pro

Production Schedules

maps to

monday CRM

Board (Timeline view)

lossy
Mapping required

Production scheduling data (operation sequences, due dates, constraint flags, priority overrides) migrates as a structured CSV and loads into a Monday.com board with a Timeline column, group-by work order or product, and status columns. This is an operational board rather than a CRM entity, giving the customer's team visibility into production scheduling alongside their sales pipeline in the same monday.com account.

Total Control Pro

Deals

maps to

monday CRM

Deal

1:1
Fully supported

Deal and sales order records from Total Control Pro map to Monday.com CRM Deal entities. We extract deal name, value, stage, expected close date, associated contact and company references, and owner assignment. Deal stage values from Total Control Pro are mapped to Monday.com CRM pipeline stage values, which are defined during the Monday.com board schema design phase. Owner assignment resolves by email against Monday.com CRM users.

Total Control Pro

Engagements

maps to

monday CRM

Activity (Emails & Activities)

1:1
Fully supported

Total Control Pro records customer-facing activities such as support interactions, order communications, and delivery confirmations. These migrate as Activity records in Monday.com CRM linked to the parent Contact or Company. Activity type (call, email, meeting, task) maps to Monday.com's activity type; timestamp and notes migrate directly. Manufacturing-specific interactions (quality checks, non-conformance records) are linked as Notes on the related Work Order board item.

Total Control Pro

Custom Fields

maps to

monday CRM

Custom Fields

lossy
Mapping required

Total Control Pro user-defined fields added during implementation are enumerated during the discovery call and mapped to Monday.com CRM custom fields by type: text fields to text columns, numeric fields to number columns, date fields to date columns, and dropdown fields to dropdown or status columns. Field-level mapping is documented in the handoff report with original Total Control Pro field names and their Monday.com equivalents.

Pair-specific challenges

  • Total Control Pro has no public API — migration depends on vendor cooperation

    Total Control Pro does not publish a documented REST or bulk API for third-party data extraction. All data export must be performed through manual CSV exports from the UI or through direct database queries that require credentials obtained directly from the vendor. We request vendor cooperation letters during scoping. If the vendor does not provide timely access to exports, migration timelines extend significantly because each module requires individual CSV scoping and extraction by your vendor or internal IT team. We recommend initiating the vendor cooperation request before migration kickoff.

  • Manufacturing data lacks Monday.com CRM equivalents — custom board workarounds required

    Work Orders, Bills of Materials, Production Schedules, and Manufacturing Intelligence Module KPIs have no direct Monday.com CRM entity counterparts. Monday.com CRM is designed for sales pipeline, contact, and deal management, not manufacturing operations. We deliver manufacturing data as structured CSV exports mapped to custom Monday.com boards, but these are operational boards rather than CRM entities. If your team relies on manufacturing KPIs (OEE, cycle time, scrap rates) for daily decision-making, those records require a separate BI or reporting tool, not Monday.com CRM.

  • Monday.com automations do not migrate from Total Control Pro

    Total Control Pro integration and automation configurations are not exposed via a documented API, meaning there is no migration-accessible pathway to replicate them in Monday.com CRM. We deliver a written inventory of any automations and integration configurations documented during discovery, but rebuilding them in Monday.com automations is outside the migration scope. Monday.com automations (available on Standard plan and above) must be configured by your admin post-migration based on the documented requirements.

  • BOM revision history requires explicit scoping to avoid incorrect recipe versions

    Bills of Materials in Total Control Pro carry revision numbers and historical variants, but the platform does not automatically mark which BOM revision was active on any given past date. We identify the active BOM revision at migration cutoff by querying the most recent approved revision per product and confirm it with your team before mapping to the destination item. If your business requires historical BOM traceability (for regulatory or quality reasons), the full revision history must be explicitly scoped before migration begins.

  • Monday.com CRM board schema must be designed before migration — poor upfront design causes duplicate records

    Monday.com CRM offers two migration paths for Work Management boards: move existing boards into CRM with features added on top, or rebuild CRM entities natively. Choosing the wrong path results in misaligned Deals, orphaned Contacts, and duplicate Companies that are difficult to deduplicate post-import. We design the Monday.com CRM board schema (Groups, Columns, CRM entities, automations) in a sandbox before production migration. CRM migrations that skip schema design land with 20-40 percent duplicate rates per industry migration benchmarks.

Migration approach

Six steps for a successful Total Control Pro to monday CRM data migration

  1. Vendor cooperation and data inventory

    We request a vendor cooperation letter from Total Control Pro to obtain CSV export access or database query credentials. Simultaneously, we enumerate every data module in scope: Customers, Products, Deals, Work Orders, BOMs, Production Schedules, Inventory, Suppliers, Quality Checks, MIM KPIs, and any custom fields added during implementation. We produce a written data inventory with record counts per module and flag any module where the vendor has not granted timely export access as a timeline risk.

  2. Monday.com CRM schema design and board planning

    We design the Monday.com CRM board structure based on your sales process: defining CRM entity types (Contacts, Companies, Deals), pipeline stages, custom fields, and any custom boards for manufacturing data (inventory, work orders, BOMs). We choose between the move-existing-boards or rebuild-CRM-entities path based on your current monday.com board maturity and the complexity of the Total Control Pro data. Schema is designed in a Monday.com trial or sandbox workspace first for validation.

  3. Data extraction, cleaning, and deduplication

    We extract CSV exports from Total Control Pro for each module in scope, working with the vendor where direct database access is required. We run a data quality pass: identifying duplicate customer records, normalizing inconsistent formatting (addresses, phone numbers, part number formats), validating that foreign key references (contact-to-customer, deal-to-contact) are present before import. Post-deduplication, we produce a clean record set with a transformation map for Monday.com column types.

  4. BOM and MIM KPI scoping and export

    For BOM revision history, we identify the active revision per product with your team and scope whether historical BOMs require preservation. We extract MIM KPI time-series data (OEE, cycle time, scrap rates) in date-bounded chunks and normalize to a structured format your BI or reporting tool can ingest. Manufacturing data loads into custom Monday.com boards designed in step 2; it does not migrate as CRM entities.

  5. Monday.com CRM import and parent-record resolution

    We import data in dependency order: Companies first (as the Account/Company anchor), then Contacts (linked to Companies), then Deals (linked to Contacts and Companies), then Activities. For each import, we resolve parent-record references (Contact to Company, Deal to Contact) and assign Owner records by email match against Monday.com CRM users. Any owner without a match goes to a reconciliation queue for your admin to provision before record import resumes.

  6. Cutover, validation, and automation handoff

    We freeze Total Control Pro writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Monday.com CRM as the system of record. We deliver a reconciliation report comparing source record counts to destination record counts, spot-check 25-50 records against the source, and produce the automation and integration inventory document. We support a one-week hypercare window for reconciliation issues. Rebuilding automations in Monday.com is outside the migration scope; we deliver the requirements document for your admin or a monday.com partner.

Strengths

  • Board-based UI makes pipeline stages and deal progress visually obvious without training.
  • No-code automation builder requires no developer resources to create lead routing and stage-triggered actions.
  • Flexible column system supports custom CRM fields without schema changes or admin involvement.
  • Integrates natively with Slack, Gmail, Outlook, and Zapier with minimal configuration overhead.
  • Layered product means teams already on monday Work Management can add CRM without migrating existing data.

Weaknesses

  • No native Contacts object separate from Items — contacts are managed inside a CRM module's People feature.
  • Pipeline and deal relationships use a flat item model rather than a relational object model, making complex CRM associations awkward.
  • Automations are plan-gated (250 actions/month on Standard, 25,000 on Pro) and the legacy Recipe system is being deprecated.
  • Customization and advanced views (Chart, Formula, Dependency) are locked behind Pro and Enterprise tiers.
  • Per-seat pricing with non-refundable annual billing creates cost lock-in risk during migration.

Most migrations land between three and five weeks for accounts with fewer than 5,000 customer records and one to three modules for extraction. Migrations requiring BOM revision history extraction, MIM KPI time-series export, multi-module CSV scoping, and Monday.com board schema design with custom fields move to eight to twelve weeks. Timeline is heavily dependent on Total Control Pro vendor cooperation for CSV export access; delays in vendor response extend the schedule proportionally.
