Migrate from TeamWork Live to monday Work Management

TeamWork Live Projects map to monday.com Boards. Project name, description, status (active/archived), start date, and due date migrate directly. The project start date becomes a Date column or timeline start; due date becomes the deadline Date column. Project-level custom fields (text, number, dropdown) map to monday.com columns created on the board. Archived projects migrate as closed boards; the customer decides whether archived boards are included in the migration scope.

TeamWork Live Tasks map to monday.com Items within a Board. Task title, description, status, priority, assignee, due date, and estimated time migrate as Item name, description, Status column, Priority column, Person column, Date column, and Numbers column respectively. Task-level custom fields (text, number, dropdown on Premium tier) map to additional columns on the destination board. Subtasks in TeamWork Live map to Subitems on the monday.com Item if the destination account supports Subitems (Standard plan and above).

TeamWork Live Milestones are standalone date-driven markers linked to projects. monday.com does not have a native Milestone object; we convert Milestones to Date columns on the board (set to the milestone target date) or to a Timeline column spanning start-to-target if a start date exists. Milestone name migrates as a Label column value or a tag on the Item. Completed milestones (with completion dates) are flagged by setting a Status column to Done with a completed_date metadata note.

TeamWork Live Task Lists group tasks within a project and carry an ordered sequence. monday.com Groups replace Task Lists as the grouping mechanism. The Task List name becomes the Group name. Ordering is preserved by retrieving tasks in TeamWork Live's API sequence order and inserting Items into the Group in that order. monday.com's drag-and-drop reordering is available post-migration for manual adjustment.

TeamWork Live Users (team members) map to monday.com Workspace Members by email address match. Guest or client-level users in TeamWork Live map to monday.com Guests, which require a separate guest license on monday.com (included in Pro and above, add-on on Standard). We flag any TeamWork Live user without a matching monday.com email for the customer's admin to provision before record import.

TeamWork Live Time Entries linked to tasks migrate to monday.com Time Tracking columns on the relevant Items. We map hours logged, date, and optional notes. Note that monday.com Time Tracking (Standard plan and above, $5/user/mo add-on for billable time tracking) stores total hours per item; detailed time entry notes may be stored in a Text column if the customer's workflow requires granular entry descriptions. Billable/non-billable flags and hourly rate overrides from TeamWork Live require manual configuration in monday.com's Time Tracking settings post-migration.

TeamWork Live Comments attached to tasks or projects migrate to monday.com Updates on the relevant Items. Comment text, author, and timestamp preserve. Rich-text formatting (HTML-heavy comments from TeamWork Live) may not render identically in monday's update stream; we flag any comment exceeding standard text formatting for manual review post-migration. Updates are posted in chronological order using the original comment timestamp.

Files attached to tasks or projects are referenced by URL in TeamWork Live's API. We retrieve attachment metadata and either re-upload files to monday.com's native file storage (for supported file types) or generate a reference document listing the original TeamWork Live file URLs for manual re-upload. Inline images embedded in task descriptions migrate as file attachments if the TeamWork API returns the image URL separately; otherwise they are flagged for manual verification.

TeamWork Live custom fields exist at both project and task levels and support text, number, and dropdown types on the Premium plan and above. monday.com columns cover equivalent types natively: Text column, Number column, Dropdown (Labels) column, Date column, Person column. We map TeamWork dropdown options to monday Label column values, but the customer must verify option lists in monday.com post-migration because Label columns do not enforce a fixed option set. If the source account is on a lower TeamWork Live tier, no custom fields exist in the API and we skip this mapping entirely.

TeamWork Live Client Companies linked to projects for access control and billing tracking map to monday.com with limitations. monday.com does not have a native Company or Account object in Work Management (only in monday CRM). We map client company names to Tags on relevant Boards or Items, or recommend the customer set up monday CRM for a dedicated Companies board if client account management is required. Project-level client permissions require manual rebuild in monday.com's Board Share and Guest Access settings.

Tags applied to tasks or projects in TeamWork Live migrate as monday.com Tags on the relevant Items or Boards. Tag names are preserved as-is; destination systems with reserved or restricted tag names may require renaming before migration. Tags used for categorization across multiple projects migrate to a Tag column if the customer requires structured tag filtering.

TeamWork Live per-project client access controls and team permission levels (admin, member, collaborator) have no direct monday.com equivalent. We deliver a written inventory of every TeamWork Live project permission matrix (which users have access to which projects and at what level) for the customer's admin to manually rebuild using monday.com's Workspace Members, Board Share, and Guest Access settings. Collaborator-level permissions in TeamWork Live map to monday.com Guests with view-only or edit access as specified by the customer.
