Import families

1. Export your families as a CSV file from your old system.
2. Press Choose a CSV, or paste the file under Or paste it.
3. Under What the columns are, check what each heading was guessed to be.
4. Read What will happen: who will be added, and which rows will not.
5. Press the add button to write them.

Choose a CSV file, or paste its text. Nothing leaves this page until you have seen what it will do.

Up to 2,000 rows at a time. Split a bigger file and run it twice.

Each heading in your file, its first row, and what it was guessed to be. Change any guess with its menu. Not importing this ignores that column.

First name, last name, date of birth and guardian email are needed. Grade, guardian name and Their id in your old system are optional.

The date of birth and the guardian's email are how a family claims the record. A row without them would make a record nobody can claim.

Dates can be written 2016-05-13, 05/13/2016 or 13/05/2016. A date like 05/06/2016 is read month first, as May 6. Check the preview if your file came from outside the US.

Grades can be K, Kindergarten, 3, 3rd or Year 3.

How many children will be added, and how many rows will not be. Open the list of rows that will not be added to see each line number and what is wrong.

The table shows the first 20 children as they will be written. Fix the file and paste it again if anything looks off.

Running the same file again adds nobody twice. A child already here is matched and left alone, not overwritten.

A match is the same id from your old system or, without one, the same last name and date of birth.

Every child arrives waiting to be claimed. They can be scheduled and coached straight away.

Nobody is emailed. Each family takes their child's record over by signing in with the address you imported. Nothing is charged before that.

Why are my dates wrong in the preview?

Will importing again make duplicates?

Are families told they were imported?
