General Info

Default Menu Location: Transaction >> Importers/Exporters >> Address Book >> User Import

Screen Name: IMPORTUSER

Function: The Import User screen creates the User in Adjutant attribute record, links it to the Contact ID, and can complete all of the required fields in the User Details tab and the User Password Settings tab. The import program can even establish user security mimics.



Import User File Screen

Import User File Screen


File Name/Browse: Use the Browse button to locate and select the completed user record import template file (in XLS format)

Export Template: Generates a blank User Import template file

Map Fields: Fields must be mapped prior to importing. If no changes have been made to the column headings, the mapping screen should show all green, and you can click OK to continue. If any of the Input Field Name columns on the left are red, single-click on the line on the left column, and then double-click the desired mapped field in the right column to complete the mapping. Repeat for any red lines on the left that should be mapped. If there are additional columns in the source file that should NOT be mapped, they can be left unmapped (displayed in red). Mandatory fields will require that they be mapped before clicking OK.

Validate to XLS File: Selecting this box will create an XLS errors file listing any rows that would create errors such as invalid data, or duplicate records. If no errors are found in the file, the import will still process and no error file will be generated. Checking the validate box only prevents the import process if errors are encountered.
