Import contacts

Written by Tjeu Hendrickx

It is possible to import contact to the contact field (found in the navigation bar at the top). Below you can find a list with details that can be imported via an Excel file.

Pay attention: Importing contacts is prone to errors! An incorrect setting can easily lead to duplicate or incorrect contacts in your system. Always contact us first if you are planning to carry out any (major) changes.

To import contacts, go to contacts and click on import.

Make sure you do not import contacts that are too old, as this may make it harder to keep track of them. Furthermore, under the GDPR, personal data must not be retained for longer than is strictly necessary.

Please note: We do not recommend exporting contacts, making changes to them and then re-importing them. The import function is not optimised for this.

Which data can you import?

The name, address and billing details are important here. If no billing address is known, the postal address will be used automatically.
