Problem Loading Leads

[xxttxxtt]

Hi, I was wondering what was the maximum # of leads that can be loaded at one time. Somehow I cannot get the super list loader to work. If the number of the list is small then the list loader would work. If I tried to load more then a 1000 leads then it would rarely get loaded. My list is in the correct format just as the sample provided. Is there another way to load leads or what am I doing wrong? Thank you for taking your time and helping all of us with our problems.

You can load in more leads if they are in Tab-delimiter/pipe-delimited or CSV format than if you do it in Excel format. That's because Excel throws in a lot of formatting junk and it can sometimes corrupt the data from what the lead loader is trying to load.

My suggestion is to use the text-based formats and try the command-line lead loader if you need to load hundreds of thousands of leads in a single file(which is what we do).

good pm sir:

i'm having problems uploading leads. whenever i choose the SUPER LEAD LOADER and choose custom layout, the fields on the drop down menu do not show up. it only shows 'none'. there's no option in the drop down list.

any suggestions regardingf this? thanks.

are there any errors in your error_log?

Do you have the OEL perl modules loaded?

hi sir:

these are the logs from my apache error_log. i have already installed the perl modules. is there a misconfiguration i have done? by the way, i don't know if there's any conflicts with the os but i have installed astgui in an openbsd box.

Does /home/www/htdocs/vicidial/ exist?

Is it set to world writable?
