Contacts Import Problem

[bshafer]

Hi there,

I am very new to Sugar and I am having a problem importing contacts. I have created all the fields that are needed and changed the layout so that all views reflect these new fields. However when I import the .csv (the same problem happens when using tab delimited as well) it only seems to map one or two of the new fields I have created and not others.

When I am in step 3 of the importing process "Confirm Fields and Import" and I am selecting which Database Field to map to which row in my .csv file it all looks fine. eg the "School Roll" field I have created and mapped to the number 310 in row 1, seems to be working perfectly however when I press import then look at the contact just created, it usually only has the required last name field but there is nothing the the "School Roll" field.

Can anybody help figure out what I am doing wrong?

Cheers,

Ben

I am having the same problem. I just installed the latest upgrade - I was able to import contacts easily before this and now cannot get it to map for that 2 fields when trying to import a csv file.

Hi Ben

Can you post the field defs of "School Roll" (in cache/modules/Contacts/Contactvardefs.php) and some lines of your import file?

Cheers
