Data Re-import not working

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hello,

When I click on the Export To Excel button from the accounts search screen, I do not see the option to ‘make this data available for reimporting’I only see static worksheet, dynamic pivot table etc. I basically want to export some records, update one particular field and then reimport the records. So I do not wish to create new records rather just do a mass update. I have system admin rights so should be able to do everything in the system. I have found that when I try to import the spreadsheet back new records are being crated rather than updating the one field. Columns A-C which contain the GUID etc are on the spreadsheet I want to reimport.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks

JazB

Hi, thats the new design. You just need to click on dynamic worksheet (with whatever columns you need) modify and re-import. there would not be any duplication. If you will check this excel sheet, first three columns are hidden containing unique info about each record.
