    Question Import a checkbox field

    Hi

    I'm trying to import the information from a field to a "checkbox" field in Sugar crm 5.0. But I can't get the software to recognize the "true" value.

    I have the original data stored in an excel file, that I exported to a csv file. I have tried with:

    =true
    1
    yes
    Y

    How should I store my data on the excel so I can correctly import it?



    Just in case it matters, every other kind of field is imported without trouble.

    Default Re: Import a checkbox field

    Since data is stored in a MySQL database, I am guessing the true/false import has to match the field type of the MySQL table...

    I had the same problem and substituted true with "1" and false with "0" and it worked like a charm!!!
