Registration Import Wizard

The Registration Import Wizard allows you to import names and register them in courses specified in the import file.

Notes

• You must have a Course Code column (or rgcrse if using field names) in your import file.
• You must specify the exact course code for each record in the import file. E.g. 24SACE010A.
• The specified course record must exist in your database before you can run the import wizard.
• You can import any field NAMES, NAMEUDFS, REGISTER, and REGUDFS
• Date Format: use the ShortDate format for dates in your import file. The column width must also be expanded to at least 36.
• These fields must be set to Text format even if the value is only numbers: colocid, liinstid, all phone number fields, all zip code fields.
