Overview
Workiz structures field service data as flat CSV and XLSX exports organized by entity type — clients, jobs, leads, estimates, invoices, and line items each live in separate flat files. Workiz embeds relationships (client-to-job, technician-to-job) via shared ID columns across those files rather than maintaining a relational graph. Monday CRM uses a board-and-column model where every record is a board item and every attribute is a column, with built-in Person columns for team member assignments and Status columns for workflow stages. The migration challenge is decompressing Workiz's flat-file structure, splitting merged contact-and-company records into Monday's separate Contact and Company boards, mapping Workiz job status values to Monday Status column options, converting Workiz scheduling timestamps to Monday Start Date and End Date columns, and re-uploading file attachments. FlitStack sequences the migration so Workiz's flat-file exports are parsed, deduplicated, and loaded into Monday via API and CSV — preserving original IDs for traceability and running a sample migration with field-level diff before committing the full cutover. Any automations, QuickBooks sync rules, or GPS tracking rules in Workiz have no Monday equivalent and must be rebuilt manually after migration.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Workiz 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.
Workiz
Client
monday CRM
Contact (Monday CRM Contact Board)
1:manyWorkiz clients store both contact fields (first name, last name, email, phone) and company fields in a single flat record. FlitStack splits each Workiz client into two board items: a Contact record on the Monday CRM Contact Board (name, email, phone) and a Company record on the Monday CRM Company Board (business name, address). The original Workiz client ID is stored on both records for traceability back to the source flat file.
Workiz
Client
monday CRM
Company (Monday CRM Company Board)
1:manyThe company portion of each Workiz client record — business name, billing address, service area — migrates to the Monday CRM Company Board. Service area assignments from Workiz map to Monday Location columns. Parent-company hierarchies in Workiz (if used) map to Monday's subitems or a custom hierarchy column on the Company board.
Workiz
Job
monday CRM
Work Order Board (custom Monday CRM board)
1:1Workiz job records map directly to Monday board items on a dedicated Work Order board. Workiz job status values ('Scheduled', 'In Progress', 'Completed', 'Canceled') map to Monday Status column options — these require Monday-side value setup before migration runs. Scheduled start and end datetimes map to Monday Start Date and End Date columns. Workiz job type maps to a Monday Status or Dropdown column representing service category.
Workiz
Job.assigned_user
monday CRM
Person Column (Work Order Board)
1:1Workiz assigns each job to a technician by user ID. FlitStack resolves the Workiz user ID to the corresponding Monday team member by email match. Unmatched technicians are flagged before migration — teams either create Monday users first or assign to a fallback team member. GPS tracking assignments (which Workiz stores as lat/long on the job record) cannot map to a native Monday field and are preserved in a custom Number column for reference.
Workiz
Lead
monday CRM
Contact (Monday CRM Contact Board) + Lead Pipeline Board
many:1Workiz leads are separate from clients. Each Workiz lead becomes a Contact board item on the Monday CRM Contact Board with lead-specific columns (Lead Status, Lead Source, Estimated Value). For teams that want a visual pipeline view, leads also create items on a Lead Pipeline board where the Status column tracks lead stage from New through Qualified to Converted.
Workiz
Estimate
monday CRM
Deal (Monday CRM Deals Board)
1:1Workiz estimates with pricing data map to Monday CRM Deals. The estimate name becomes the deal name, total price becomes the deal Value column, and estimate status (Draft, Sent, Approved, Declined) maps to Monday Status column values. Line items from the Workiz estimate are stored as a subitems table on the Monday deal item or in a linked Items board, depending on whether the team wants per-item tracking.
Workiz
Invoice
monday CRM
Deal (Monday CRM Deals Board — invoiced status)
1:1Workiz invoices map to the Monday CRM Deals board with invoice status tracked in the Status column ('Sent', 'Paid', 'Overdue', 'Void'). Workiz payment status (paid via Workiz Pay, WiseTak financing, or QuickBooks sync) maps to a Monday Status or Dropdown column. Workiz invoice IDs are preserved in a custom Text column on the deal item for QuickBooks reconciliation after migration.
Workiz
Custom Field (Workiz per-entity)
monday CRM
Custom Column (Monday CRM board)
1:1Workiz custom fields exist per entity type — custom fields on jobs, clients, and leads each have their own set. Each Workiz custom field requires a corresponding custom column on the appropriate Monday board. FlitStack identifies the field type from Workiz (text, number, date, dropdown, checkbox) and creates the matching Monday column type. Multi-select or tag-style Workiz custom fields with multiple values map to Monday Multi-select columns.
Workiz
Attachment / File
monday CRM
Monday Files (attached to board items)
1:1Workiz file attachments on job records, client records, and invoices are downloaded from Workiz storage and re-uploaded to the corresponding Monday board items as file attachments. The original file name and Workiz record reference are preserved in a custom Text column. Workiz call recordings attached to job records map to Monday file attachments as well.
Workiz
Item (Workiz product/service catalog)
monday CRM
Items Board (custom Monday CRM board)
1:1Workiz maintains a product and service catalog (Items entity) used in estimates and invoices. These catalog items migrate to a dedicated Monday CRM Items board with columns for Item Name, Description, Unit Price, and SKU. Monday deal items then link to Items board items as subitems, preserving the Workiz line-item structure in the Monday data model.
Workiz
Workiz Phone / Call Tracking
monday CRM
No equivalent in Monday CRM
1:1Workiz's virtual phone system, call recording, call masking, and call tracking by ad source have no direct Monday CRM equivalent. Call history and recording references from Workiz job records are preserved as text fields on the relevant board items, but the phone system itself must be maintained separately or replaced with a Monday-compatible telephony integration after migration.
Workiz
Workiz GPS / Technician Location
monday CRM
No native equivalent in Monday CRM
1:1Workiz's Map page and real-time GPS tracking of field technicians are field-service-specific features with no Monday CRM native counterpart. Technician assignment data migrates to Monday Person columns, but the live dispatch map and availability designations cannot be replicated in Monday without a custom integration or third-party mapping tool.

Migration approach
Extract and audit Workiz flat-file exports
FlitStack exports Workiz data as CSV and XLSX files for all entity types: clients, jobs, leads, estimates, invoices, and items. The team audits each file for data quality — duplicate client records, orphaned job records with no client link, and rows with missing required fields. This audit identifies which Workiz clients must split into separate Monday Contact and Company board items, and flags any custom field definitions that need Monday column creation before data loads.
Create Monday CRM board structure
Before any data moves, FlitStack creates the Monday CRM workspace structure: a Contact Board, a Company Board, a Work Order Board, a Lead Pipeline Board, and a Deals Board. Custom columns are created on each board to match the Workiz custom field inventory identified in the audit — with correct column types (Date, Number, Dropdown, Multi-select, Person). Status column values on each board are configured to match Workiz status and job type pick-lists so that value mapping is ready when records load.
Parse Workiz flat files into Monday board items
FlitStack parses the Workiz flat-file exports and transforms them into Monday board items. Workiz client rows are split into Contact board items (name, email, phone) and Company board items (business name, address). Workiz job records become items on the Work Order board with Start Date, End Date, Status, and Person columns mapped from Workiz scheduling and assigned user data. Workiz custom field values populate the matching custom columns on each board. Workiz invoice and estimate records create deal items on the Deals board with pricing and payment status.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice of 50–100 Workiz records migrates to Monday first — spanning clients, jobs, leads, and deals. FlitStack generates a field-level diff report showing every source field value from Workiz and the resulting Monday column value after transformation. The team reviews person column assignments (Workiz technician to Monday team member), status value mappings (Workiz job status to Monday Status options), and date column accuracy. Any column type mismatches or missing Monday Status values are corrected before the full run proceeds.
Full migration with delta-pickup and rollback
The complete Workiz dataset migrates to Monday. A 24–48 hour delta-pickup window runs concurrently, capturing any new or modified Workiz records created during the cutover so the Monday workspace reflects Workiz's final state at go-live. FlitStack's audit log records every operation — record created, record updated, or relationship linked. If reconciliation shows missing or mis-mapped records, one-click rollback reverts the Monday workspace to its pre-migration state so the team can correct and re-run without data loss. After successful migration, FlitStack exports Workiz automation definitions as a rebuild reference for Monday Recipe setup.
