Use this page to download a formatted Excel spreadsheet for batch uploading customers to the database.
The customer import runs as a background job. It supports Excel files with multiple sheets. The records are processed in groups of 50 records at a time to help keep the memory usage low.
The import page shows a job progress bar and messages. When the job is complete, there is an Excel file provided for download and saved in the Attachments area for later reference. This Excel file shows the details about the number of customers, site, systems, RMR saved during each 50-record import. If any validation errors occur during the import process, the results file will show the details.
