Importing from Excel: Map Data Fields incomplete

Post by Jerry Crosby »

I'm importing a donor list from an Excel file. No problems with the process, except that some of the fields I have in the Excel file aren't matched in the "Map Data Fields" screen. For instance, I have a field in the Excel file for the "Send Newsletter" field in DM, but that field is not available from the dropdown list of fields to match.

Is there any way around this, short of manually going through all 1,314 records and checking the "Send Newsletter" box in DM as needed? It seems odd that you cannot map to a greater number of DM fields.
