GoldBox Operation: IMPORT / UPDATE
IMPORT / UPDATE is the GoldBox operation which many GoldMine users encounter first. This is the best way to integrate data from another CRM system into GoldMine. And once you have GoldMine up and running? You have the most powerful and flexible tool available for occasional or recurring data imports and data refresh scenarios:
DUPE PREVENTION: Choose an Indexed Match, Custom Match, or Direct SQL Query. GoldBox also has 'smoothing' logic - find more hits when matching on Company, Contact Name and Address. Avoid a risky Merge-Purge later and stop dupes COLD at the point-of-entry.
DRY RUNS: Test in complete safety. Source data is NEVER directly applied to GoldMine - it is first 'parked' into a temporary table. You can halt the operation after Park Phase and examine this table directly. Ideal when employing complex Field-Replace expressions. You can also preview the Match scenario. Select BYPASS to flag the parked data as 'Hits' and 'No-Matches'.
FLEXIBILITY: Every Import / Update is different. GoldBox adjusts to YOUR unique implementation of GoldMine. Features include live mapping Flags, Date auto-formatting, Double-field Mapping, options for field Translation, Source fields Write-Back, Plug-in of Tab records to a new or existing Main Contact, instant Field / Expression Result display and more. Plus, the 200+ Function Library is available for Filters and Expressions.
