How do I trigger a bulk import of clients/entities and their relationships from APS to the partner portal?

Your partner portal allows you to bulk import clients/entities and their relationships from APS into your portal. Bulk importing clients/entities and their relationships saves you time and allows you to create multiple clients in a few simple steps. 

NOTE: Before you trigger a bulk import of a client/entity from APS, you need to have successfully connected your APS integration. See How do I set up my APS integration?

To trigger a bulk import of clients/entities from APS: 

1. Navigate to Clients > Client List 
2. Select Add clients>Bulk import>Add Clients from integrations>APS.
   
   
   
   
3. Pop-up window appears to let you know the import is now in progress.
   To check the progress of the import you can click the 'Review integration's progress' link, or to view at a later time, click 'OK'
   
   NOTE:
   1) You will receive a notification email from the portal to let you know the import is in progress. 
   2) You can access the Integration progress screen via the Configure menu at any time.
   
   
   
   
4. Visit 'Configure'>'Integration progress'. The the status of the import will change to 'Pending review'.
   Select 'Review the items'.
   
   
   
   
   
5. A list of clients/entities is displayed.
   Review the list and mark the checkbox next to the clients/entities names you want to import. Click 'Submit selected clients'.
   
   
   
   NOTE: To view a list of clients/entities that cannot be imported, click the 'Import report' tab. The 'Comments' column will display the reason that the client/entity failed to import. From here you can correct the data as necessary and re-attempt an import if required. 
   
   
   
   
6. Once you have clicked 'Submit selected clients,' a popup window will appear for you to assign other staff members to the imported clients.
   Simply mark the checkbox next to the Staff you want to assign and click 'OK'
   
   
   
   
7. Once you have selected the clients/entities you want to import, the import will process and the portal will refresh. Please allow a few moments for this to happen. 
   
   
   
   Once the clients have successfully imported, you will receive a notification email from the portal to let you know.
   
   
8. The Integration progress screen will now show the status of the bulk import as 'Completed'. 
   To view a report of the bulk import , click 'View report'.
   
   
   
   
9. The report will display all clients/entities included in the bulk import and the status of your import review actions. 
   
   
   
   
10. Clients/entities that were successfully imported will now display in your client list with the word 'New' next to their name. You are now ready to start working with the client/entity.
