Adding customers
The Customers tab is your customers base. By putting them in our CRM in addition to gathering all the information about customer (such as personal and business data) you can see the entire history of contact.
You can add customers to the system in two ways - by adding a single person (or companies) directly to CRM or importing previously prepared CSV file when you want to add more people.
Go to the Customers tab, expand button and choose Add person.
You will open the new customer's card - complete the data.

Import people (companies) from CSV files
Did you know...
CSV is a format for storing data in the text files. The format is supported by most popular office packages (ex. MIcrosoft Office, LibreOffice...)
If you have a previously prepared customer database you can import them from CSV text files. Go to the Customers tab, expand button and select Import people from CSV files (or Import companies from CSV files) - we will show you how to add a group of people.
You will be moved to the import page.
Attach a CSV file with records - click the button . Remember that your file should contain the headers. The table with the imported data will be displayed. Match the headers from the file with the headers from the CRM base (process of data mapping). Unassigned headings are highlighted in red.
Did you know...
By clicking the cross at the column headers in the base you can delete the selected column - it will not be downloaded from the CSV file.
Selecting the option Update existing records allow you to update existing records in CRM base without adding them again. If CRM clients appear in the CSV file, only additional data will be added.
Recognition of records can occur after:
- identifier
- phone number
- e-mail address
- PESEL number
- NIP number
By expanding Show advanced you can set:
- how the special characters are encoded
- UTF-8 - default
- ISO 8859-2
- Windows 1250
- how the columns are splitted
- comma - default
- semicolon
- colon
- tab
These parameters should be the same as in the file that you attached.
If the data is correct click the button . You will receive a message about ending the import and you will be transferred to the list of customers.
