    Default Selecting All contacts for Campaign

    I have a campaign that i am trying to build that will include all +/- 23,000 contacts in the initial target list.

    Is there a easy way to add all contacts to the target list other than exporting the contacts to a .csv file and then doing a target import?

    I cannot get this method to work due to timeout errors in apache and file size limitations.

    Any other ideas would be great.

    Thanks,




    Running Sugar Open Source
    Version 4.5.1e (Build 1049)

    There are tools to do this in the Pro and Enterprise versions, but in the OS version I am afraid your options are limited. There are basically 2 choices

    1) write a peice of code that copies the Contacts ID to the Prospect lists (if you cant code there are people out there who would do this for a reasonable price as it's not that hard, maybe 1 hours work.

    2) split your export file into 23 one thousand record imports. It may take a while but it wont time out and it's free.

    Thanks alot Ken.

    I will look into the coding route, i cant bear the thought of going through exporting and importing in groups of 1k again.

    I lost hair and braincells the first go around.


    Thanks again,

    MIke
