The purpose of the file loader option is to update/edit existing unit information for a large number of units by uploading a file, as opposed to manually updating each unit.

  • The file must be in CSV format.

  • The first column of the file must be a Unit ID (unit_id). This column must include valid unit ids, so its values must be filled. In addition, each Id should have a single row (the same unit cannot be updated with 2 different rows).

  • Each field you wish to update must appear with its system name in the column headline (all the system names appear here below ("Field Unique Names").

  • Each value should match the field's type. The field can be of one of the following types:

    • Numeric - commas are not allowed (i.e., the valid format is 1000 and not 1,000). numeric fields cannot be empty.

    • Date - must be in the following format: yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm: ss (hh:mm: ss are optional).

    • Date fields cannot be empty.

    • String - free text. Note that empty fields will override the existing value (delete it).

    • List Options String - valid values are only predefined options.

    • Boolean fields (true or false) - valid values are "Yes"/ "No" (case insensitive).

  • You can write the following code in the relevant rows to avoid overriding existing settings: %DONOTCHANGE%
