New Loyalty Member File (Extended 2)

Intended Application

To insert new members.

 

Notes

  • Header record is expected.  The first record will be skipped.
  • If custom field data is for a "list" type custom field, a semi-colon must be used to separate the items.
  • If an invalid parameter for a "dropdown" custom field is imported, any existing value for this field will be removed.
  • For checkbox value types; 1, Y, YES = True (Checked) || 0, NO, N = FALSE (Unchecked).
  • Any delimiter, except for a semi-colon and [tab], can be used to separate columns.  The delimiter used is then specified at the time of file import.
  • In the event a provided birthdate can't be properly interpreted (bad data), the file import will suspend itself.

 

Processing Logic

  • If the Account Id does not exist in the system, a new member will be created.
  • If no Account Id is contained within the record, a new member without an Account Id will be created.
  • A complete address (address line 1, city, state, zip, and country) is required for address to be saved with this file.
