How to organise your data for import
You can import stakeholders, interactions, properties, and tasks to Simply Stakeholders using your existing data in the form of an excel spreadsheet. The system will automatically match as many column headings as possible to our fields.
If we get it wrong, you can manually re-map.
Go to Import Records for details about how to import records and map fields.
But here are a few tips if you want to optimise your data for import.

Are there any specific terms you need to use when creating your import file?
Yes, there are some specific terms you need to use when creating your import file to avoid import errors.
For example, in a stakeholder import, the only values accepted for the Stakeholder Mapping fields (Interest, Influence, Impact, etc) are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
If any other value is used in these columns, the row in which it's used will not be imported.
Note:
The accepted values may vary depending on how your platform is configured.
