Overview
Xapsys CRM and Monday.com CRM use fundamentally different data models. Xapsys stores Companies, Contacts, and Deals as structured relational objects with a custom entity builder that makes every deployment schema-unique; Monday.com represents all CRM data as board items with customizable columns. The migration cannot follow a template because Xapsys custom entities have no standard Monday.com equivalent until we inspect the live schema. We begin every Xapsys migration with a schema discovery phase, extract the field inventory from the customer's live instance, and build a field-by-field map before the first record is imported. We preserve Companies as Account items, Contacts as Contact items linked to Accounts, and Deals as Deal items with a status column mapped to the original pipeline stages. Documents attach as file links to the parent item. Workflow automations, custom entity logic, and Sage or Xero integration rules do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of every automation and integration for the customer's team to rebuild in Monday.com Automations and any new integration layer.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Xapsys 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.
Xapsys CRM
Company
monday CRM
Account Item
1:1Xapsys Company records map to Monday.com CRM Account items. We extract company_name, address fields, and any classification or sector fields from the Xapsys schema and create corresponding columns in the Accounts board. The account item name becomes the company name. Classification tags from Xapsys migrate as Tags on the Account item.
Xapsys CRM
Contact
monday CRM
Contact Item
1:1Xapsys Contact records map to Monday.com CRM Contact items linked to the parent Account item. We import Contacts after Accounts so the Account linkage is satisfied at insert. Email, phone, role, and owner fields map to Contact columns; the contact's linked Company is preserved as the Monday.com Contact item's Account connection.
Xapsys CRM
Opportunity
monday CRM
Deal Item
1:1Xapsys Deal records map to Monday.com CRM Deal items attached to the relevant Contact item. Deal amount, expected close date, and stage name migrate to Deal-specific columns. Pipeline stage names from Xapsys become status column values in the Deals board, configured to match the team's original stage names.
Xapsys CRM
Pipeline Stage
monday CRM
Status Column
lossyXapsys pipeline stages are user-defined string values. We capture every distinct stage name from the Deals export, create matching status column values in the Monday.com Deals board during board setup, and produce a written stage map confirming each source stage maps to one destination value. Probability mapping, if present in Xapsys, becomes a number column.
Xapsys CRM
Custom Entity
monday CRM
Custom Board
1:1Xapsys custom entities have no Monday.com standard equivalent. We extract the live schema from the customer's Xapsys instance during discovery, create a Monday.com board with columns matching the custom entity's field names and types (text fields to text columns, dates to date columns, lookups to connector columns), and migrate the records as items in that board. Custom entities that reference Companies or Contacts are linked via Monday.com's item connections. Each custom entity is a separate discovery and board creation exercise.
Xapsys CRM
Document
monday CRM
File Attachment
1:1Xapsys documents linked to Companies or Opportunities are extracted as files with their parent reference preserved. We upload files to Monday.com using the Monday.com file upload API and attach them to the matching Account or Deal item. Documents without a valid parent reference are held in a reconciliation queue for the customer's admin to resolve before final import.
Xapsys CRM
Activity (Task, Note)
monday CRM
Item Update or Subtask
1:1Xapsys activity history (tasks and notes attached to contacts and deals) migrates to Monday.com as Item updates or linked Subtasks. Date, type, and description map to the update text and timestamp. If the Xapsys export provides a structured activity log, we map it to Item updates in reverse-chronological order; if the export is a flat note list, we attach it as a Subtask or update to the relevant Contact or Deal item.
Xapsys CRM
Tag / Classification
monday CRM
Tags
lossyXapsys classification tags are extracted as tag names and mapped to Monday.com Tags on the relevant item type. Tags that appear on both Companies and Contacts are applied to both item types independently. Any tag with no clear mapping target is flagged in the mapping document for the customer's admin to assign or discard.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Schema discovery and scoping
We extract the live schema from the customer's Xapsys instance including all standard objects (Companies, Contacts, Deals), custom entities and their fields, pipeline stage names, classification tags, and document counts. We pair this with a Monday.com board architecture plan: one Accounts board, one Contacts board, one Deals board per pipeline, and one custom board per Xapsys custom entity. We produce a written scope document with the schema map and board design before any data export begins.
Data export and cleaning
We export Companies first, then Contacts, then Deals, then custom entity records, then activities and documents from Xapsys. During export we run a data quality pass: deduplication on email and company name, normalization of date formats to YYYY-MM-DD, standardization of phone number formats, and flagging of incomplete records. We produce a data quality report for the customer admin to review before import begins.
Monday.com board setup and column configuration
We create the target boards in Monday.com CRM: Accounts, Contacts, Deals, and one board per custom entity. We configure columns to match the extracted Xapsys schema field types and names. Status columns for pipeline stages are populated with the original Xapsys stage names. We configure Monday.com CRM item connections (Contact to Account, Deal to Contact and Account) before any data is imported. Board permissions and team access settings are documented for the customer's admin to apply.
Record import in dependency order
We import records into Monday.com in dependency order: Accounts first, then Contacts with Account connections resolved, then Deals with Contact and Account connections resolved, then custom entity records with their parent lookups resolved. Documents are uploaded via the Monday.com file API and attached to the relevant Account or Deal item. Activities and notes are imported as Item updates or Subtasks linked to the correct parent item. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report confirming record counts match the export baseline.
Delta migration and cutover
We freeze writes in Xapsys during cutover, run a final delta export capturing any records modified or created during the migration window, apply the same transform and import logic, then close the Xapsys export access. Monday.com becomes the system of record. We deliver the automation and integration inventory document to the customer's admin team. We support a five-business-day hypercare window for reconciliation issues raised by the team during initial Monday.com use.
Automation rebuild handoff
We do not rebuild Xapsys workflows as Monday.com Automations inside the migration scope. We deliver a written inventory of every active Xapsys automation with its trigger type, conditions, actions, and recommended Monday.com Automation equivalent. The customer's admin or a Monday.com partner rebuilds the critical automations post-migration. Sage and Xero re-integration through Zapier or Make is documented as a separate task with the relevant trigger-action pairs identified from the original Xapsys sync configuration.
