Auto Import FAQ’s
Can we use the SCI Import Computer for other tasks?
Yes, the Auto Import Client runs as a background service and should not interfere with normal daily use.
When are imports done?
All imports done by Auto Import Client are done overnight (between 6pm EST and 6am EST). This rule applies, regardless of file size, or the number of records in the file.
Can Excel files be imported?
Yes, Excel files can be imported, but be advised that Excel may add its own formatting to the exported data. For example, if a student ID# has leading zeros in the number “000012456”, and when open in Excel, the leading zeros may be stripped away, so the student ID# becomes “12456”. The best practice is to export data as .CSV file, so data formatting is not a factor.
Can Tab delimited files be imported?
No, this type of export file format cannot be imported.
Only .CSV and .XLS can be imported.
