Import Spreadsheet #

  1. Go to the ParadeSmart manager
  2. Click “Homes,” then click “Import” in the top right corner
  1. Choose file and upload. It should take a minute to load
  2. If the upload fails or gives errors, there is probably something small and technical in your file that confuses the system. Check for the following:
    1. Spelling errors
    2. Differences between the column titles and how they’re listed
    3. Extra commas in numbers
    4. Try using zeros instead of blank cells
    5. Try deleting a column that gives you errors (enter that information manually after upload)

Note: If you upload again, it should not make duplicates, it will just add the information (that is assuming you have the name entered already).
