Exporting Contacts

The following article describes the exporting capability of the Forth CRM. The Export function allows you to export sets of contact files into a comma-delimited file (.CSV). This capability could be useful to identify duplicates, correct email addresses in your contacts list, and/or correct typos.

This article includes the following topics:

• Exporting a list
• Exporting data tables and columns

 Exporting a list

1. From the Contacts tab, select one of the following:
   • With List lets you edit the entire contact list by clicking "Export Full Report"; or
   • With Selected lets you edit only selected contact files by selecting the contacts you wish to export, selecting "export" from the dropdown menu, and clicking the checkmark icon.
2. You should receive an Information Privacy warning like that shown below.
3. When the file is ready, a notice will appear on the screen confirming that your list export request is now ready to download and that the downloadable file is available under the "My Exports" section of the Reports tab/module.

Exporting data tables and columns

You may select any data columns you specify (see example below) to include and ultimately export into a .CSV file for making sorting data easier in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or any other spreadsheet program that can read .CSV files. See more on adding columns to your lists here: Contact lists. 

NOTE
Export may take several minutes to complete if exporting a large volume of contact files.
