Records
 
Records are defined as the recipients of the cases. These could be customers, vendors, employees, among others. You can create records manually or Import your record list using a Microsoft Excel file.
 
In order to create a record, you will need the following items:

  2. Code: A custom code that defines the record (e.g. Social Security number, initials, member number, etc.).
  3. Record type: A template to add additional information about the record. The default type does not contain additional fields of information for the record. You can create a new type in the Templates section.
To create a record manually:
  1. Navigate to Administration > Records.
  2. Click on the “New Record” button at the top of the screen.
  3. When the New Record windows pops up, select the Type.
  4. Fill the necessary information including Full Name and Code.
  5. Click Save to apply the changes.

After saving, the record will appear on the list in the Records section on Administration. You can choose to edit or delete the record from this list (only if the case hasn’t been created yet).

To download the template:
  1. Navigate to Administration > Records.

The template will download directly to your internet browser and to your Downloads folder where you can then locate and edit the file with your record’s information.
  
The Excel file contains three columns:
  1. Name: Full name of the record.
  2. Code: Custom code to define the record (e.g. Social Security number, initials, member number, etc.)
  3. CustomRecordId: This is the ID for the Record type. You can find these defined on the Record Types worksheet on the same Import Layout.
