Bulk importing email addresses

If you need to add in email addresses for a large number of people in SIMS. You can follow this guide – Bulk Import

This can be done for current staff members and contacts (for pupils see https://faq.scomis.org/kb26013/)

This document can be followed as it is for Non-Hosted schools but if you are a hosted school, you will need to log a call with us when you have created the file so that we can apply the patches. Once the first patch has been applied, a log file will be created and we will put the file into a location on your F drive which you will be made aware of.  Once you have checked the log file, you will need to contact us to let us know you are happy for us to clear these errors and we will then apply a second patch to do so.

Please Note: Where the document refers to patch 20343 this has now been superseded by patch 23212 which should be used instead.
