Importing contact into the database requires exclusive use of the access database or SQL contacts table, so no other users can be running QuoteWerks when you are running the import. Click on the [Start Import] button, and QuoteWerks will begin importing the contacts. QuoteWerks performs the import in 2 stages; deleting the records and importing the new one. After the import has completed, you will be asked if you would like to view the import log for errors. We recommend that you view the log. In the log, the start time, number of records processed, errors encountered, and the stop time will be listed.
| Note: | When the import process is running there is a gauge that displays the progress. While the import is deleting and compacting, the gauge will appear to be frozen. This is a normal part of the operation, so do not mistake it for QuoteWerks freezing up. When an application is performing disk intensive operations, the requests to redraw the window are postponed which is why the gauge is not updated. |
|
| Note: | Any errors or bad records encountered during the import will be displayed in a log that has the same base name as the import template file used to perform the import. |
