The iCRM application supports Import from back-end data sources specifically, Salesforce.com, MS Dynamics and QuickBooks. Data in .csv file format can also be uploaded.

Recently, we also added support for Importing Data from SugarCRM, Outlook.com and Google.

After you select the CRM that you want to import with, the Import dialog opens where some settings on how a record is uploaded is configured, see below discussion of the Import Types.

The Import Settings

Import Types:

Create New Records

Processes unique records and ignores duplicates based on a combination of check fields

Create New and Merge to Existing Records

Click on the Key dropdown to select a field

Processes records based on a specific key. If found, CRM records is overwritten with the values from source. If key field is not found then duplicate checking is done to either Create a new record or not.

Create New and Ignore if Record already Exists

Click on the Key dropdown to select a field

Processes records based on a specific key. If found, ignore and process next record on source. If key field is not found then duplicate checking is done to either Create a new record or not.

Multi-keyword Separator:

Pipe and Semi-colon are supported.

Non-existing keyword values:

Ignore - keywords that does not match on the list for that field is not imported. Field is blank.
Import and Insert New keyword - new values from source is added to iCRM keyword list for that field. Keyword is imported.

Account Ownership

If the person running the import is not the sole Owner of the accounts being uploaded, then setup the following before import.

For CSV, there must be a column for Account Owner which must be filled-up with the username of valid iCRM users.
For other data source, the field "External User Id (for data import)" on the User Profile must be filled-up for all valid iCRM users.
