Importing To Do Items

Modified on Tue, 13 May at 11:28 AM

To Do Items can be bulk imported into WorkGuru using the To Do import function found under Administration > Imports > Import To Do.

Or from the To Do List dashboard Actions -> Import to Do

By default the import will simply upload the To Do items to WorkGuru, which can then be viewed on the To-Do List menu, however by using optional fields they can also be applied directly to Quotes, Projects, etc.

WorkGuru To-Do List Import Template Import Field Definitions

Note: if importing To-Dos to a specific transaction, ensure that BOTH the inputs are spelt 100% correctly - failure to do so will result in the transaction field with incorrect spelling being ignored, which will have knock-on effects depending on which field is incorrect. E.G. if the ProjectNumber field is incorrect, the To-Do List item will import as if ProjectNumber/ProjectTask values are empty, if the ProjectTask field is incorrect, it will import it directly to the project without assigned it to a task, which can then only be viewed on the To Do List menu.


If a Transaction Number/Task has been included and all fields have been filled out correctly, upon import the To-Do items will be shown against the relevant project task lines in the Project Details screen.
