Review Dates/Frequency - assigning in bulk?

Hi there! I hope this is ok to post here!

We are looking at automating our review process further and wanted to know if there is a way to bulk add review dates & frequency to selected clients in the Manage Reviews screen?

Thank you 🙂

  • Hi fiona.matthews.0​ , thanks for posting! You can use a csv file import file to  bulk add review dates & frequency to selected clients.

    ⚠️Before importing client data, it is recommended that you first export the relevant data being updated and save this file as a back-up. Read: Export Client Data

    👨‍🎓 Always test your import file on a few test clients before running it across your entire client list!

    I've attached a csv template here that you can use and I also recommend reading the following article: Import Client Data, particularly the sections on valid date formatsimport field group data and warnings about importing data

    For example, a csv for the review group would contain the following columns: 

    entity_idreview_manual_completionreview_review_commentreview_date_completedreview_time_completedreview_datereview_descreview_frequencyreview_adviserreview_end_timereview_timereview_statusreview_type
        

    You must include the entity id in the file and make sure you understand the difference between append and overwrite as per the above article.

    Finally, the ability to import data is  capability based so if you don't see the menu options under your log in, you may need to get in touch with your site administrator. Often your site administrator will even perform this task for you if you provide them with the import file!

    I hope that helps!
