Overview
Moving from YetiForce CRM to Monday.com CRM is a structural shift from a module-driven ERP-CRM hybrid to a board-based Work OS that offers CRM capabilities. YetiForce organizes data across separate modules (Contacts, Organizations, Potentials, Projects, Tickets) with relational field IDs; Monday.com uses a board-column-item model where each board acts as a standalone workspace and CRM entities (People, Companies, Deals) live inside a dedicated CRM workspace. We resolve the mapping between YetiForce's module-based schema and Monday's board-based architecture, handle the Potentials-to-Deals stage configuration, and flag that YetiForce's custom field IDs are instance-specific and require a dynamic schema map built during the audit phase. Workflows, saved Reports (removed in YetiForce v4.4), and the self-hosted server infrastructure do not migrate; we deliver a written inventory of automations for the customer to rebuild in Monday's native automation builder.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a YetiForce 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.
YetiForce CRM
Contact
monday CRM
People (CRM workspace)
1:1YetiForce Contact records map to Monday CRM People items. Name, email, phone, and address fields map directly to the equivalent People column types. We resolve the assigned owner reference by matching YetiForce user email to Monday team member email and assign the People item to the matched user. Multi-address records in YetiForce are collapsed to a primary address during import.
YetiForce CRM
Organization
monday CRM
Companies (CRM workspace)
1:1YetiForce Organization records map to Monday CRM Company items. Company name, industry, website, and address fields map to the equivalent Company column types. Organizations are imported before Contacts so that the company reference on the Contact record can be resolved to the Monday Company item during Contact insert. YetiForce's Organization type (customer, prospect, vendor) maps to a custom dropdown column on the Monday Company.
YetiForce CRM
Lead
monday CRM
Leads (CRM workspace)
1:1YetiForce Lead records with status and source fields map to Monday CRM Leads. Lead_Source and Lead_Status from YetiForce are preserved as custom dropdown columns in Monday since the standard Monday CRM Lead template includes these fields. We import Leads before converting them to People/Companies in Monday if the customer's sales process requires a distinct pre-qualification stage.
YetiForce CRM
Potentials
monday CRM
Deals (CRM workspace)
1:1YetiForce Potentials map to Monday CRM Deals with deal name, amount, closing date, and probability preserved. The Potentials pipeline stage maps to Monday Deal status via a configuration table that the customer defines during scoping. We link each Deal to the corresponding Monday Company and People items by matching on organization name and contact email. Probability values from YetiForce are stored as a custom number column in Monday since Deals do not natively support probability.
YetiForce CRM
Project
monday CRM
Board (Work OS workspace)
1:1YetiForce Project records map to Monday boards. Project name becomes the board name, start and end dates become board-level date columns, and project status maps to a custom status column. Each board includes a group for Project Tasks as child items. YetiForce's per-user layout customization does not transfer; the board uses Monday's standard column types for task management. Projects must be imported before Project Tasks to satisfy the parent-board dependency.
YetiForce CRM
Project Task
monday CRM
Items (within Project Board)
1:1YetiForce Project Tasks map to Monday Items within the corresponding Project board. Subject, status, priority, and assigned user migrate directly. The status picklist values from YetiForce are mapped to Monday status column values via a configuration table. YetiForce reference fields (linked records in other modules) cannot map to Monday's item linking without manual reconnection post-migration.
YetiForce CRM
Ticket
monday CRM
Items (dedicated board)
lossyYetiForce Tickets map to Items in a dedicated board created for support tracking. Ticket title becomes item name, status and priority map to status columns, and related Contact and Organization references are resolved to Monday People and Company items by name match. Custom ticket fields that use YetiForce-specific picklists are mapped to Monday dropdown or status columns. The ticket category field maps to a Monday group within the board.
YetiForce CRM
Product
monday CRM
Items (Products board)
1:1YetiForce Product records map to Items in a dedicated Products board. Product name, unit price, and description map to the equivalent Monday column types. Stock levels from YetiForce are stored as a number column. We map the vendor reference by matching YetiForce vendor name to the corresponding Monday Company item in the Vendors board. Products must be imported before any Potentials that reference them.
YetiForce CRM
Service
monday CRM
Items (Services board)
1:1YetiForce Service records share the same data shape as Products and migrate to Items in a dedicated Services board using the same column mapping logic. Service price per unit maps to a number column, and description maps to a text column. Services are imported separately from Products to maintain the distinction between tangible products and recurring service offerings.
YetiForce CRM
Vendor
monday CRM
Companies (CRM workspace)
1:1YetiForce Vendor records map to Monday CRM Companies with a vendor-type tag applied via a label or status column. Vendor name, website, and address migrate directly. We cross-reference Vendors during Product import to resolve the vendor-to-product foreign-key relationship by matching on vendor name. If a Vendor name does not match an existing Monday Company, we create the Company record first.

Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Discovery and source audit
We audit the source YetiForce installation across modules in use (Contacts, Organizations, Leads, Potentials, Projects, Tickets, Products, Services, Vendors), record volumes per module, active Workflow count, custom field inventory, and whether Webservice Standard or Premium is available for API access. We extract the field metadata for each module to build the dynamic field schema map (cf_xxx to logical field name). We also identify any historical saved Reports from pre-v4.4 that need manual export before cutover. The discovery output is a written migration scope and Monday board structure recommendation.
Monday board structure design
We design the Monday destination structure based on the customer's CRM and project management needs. The CRM workspace covers People, Companies, Leads, and Deals. Separate boards are created for Products, Services, Vendors, Tickets, and Projects. We define the column types for each board (status, dropdown, date, number, person, text) and map YetiForce field values to the equivalent Monday column types. We resolve the Potentials-to-Deals stage mapping via a configuration table that the customer approves. This schema is validated in a Monday test workspace before production migration.
Data extraction via CSV export and API validation
We extract data from YetiForce using CSV Export for each module. Because YetiForce Standard API lacks bulk endpoints, we run CSV exports per module and supplement with API-based record lookups for validation. We apply the dynamic field schema map to translate YetiForce field IDs to logical field names. For attachments, we use YetiForce's built-in Export action per record and download files to a structured directory organized by module and record ID. We deduplicate records (Contacts with duplicate emails, Organizations with duplicate names) before import.
Parent-record dependency ordering and Monday import
We import data into Monday in dependency order: Companies first (Vendors with vendor-type tag), then People (Contacts with company reference resolved), then Leads, then Deals (linked to People and Companies), then Project boards, then Project Tasks, then Ticket board items, then Products and Services. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report showing records exported from YetiForce versus records created in Monday. We use Monday's bulk import API with rate-limit handling and exponential backoff to manage API quota. Person-column assignments are resolved by matching YetiForce user email to Monday team member.
Attachment migration and file reconnection
YetiForce file attachments are stored in the file system and linked via record ID. The standard API does not expose binary download endpoints, so we use YetiForce's per-record Export action to download files. We upload files to Monday as attachments on the corresponding Items and People records. Because Monday's item linking does not natively support cross-board reference fields, the customer manually reconnects any files that relate records across different boards (e.g., a Product attachment linked from a Ticket). We document which files require manual reconnection.
Cutover, validation, and Workflow handoff
We freeze YetiForce writes during cutover, run a final delta migration of any records modified during the migration window, then enable Monday as the system of record. We deliver the Workflow inventory document to the customer's team for rebuild in Monday's native automation builder. We support a one-week hypercare window where we resolve reconciliation issues. We do not rebuild YetiForce Workflows as Monday automations inside the migration scope; that is documented for the customer's team to handle as a separate task.
