PCRM’s new Bulk Import feature streamlines the process of adding large lists of names, companies, and positions to your private recruitment database. Whether you’re migrating data from another system, importing a fresh list of prospects, or updating existing records with fresh information, the new bulk import in PCRM reduces the friction that slows you down.
Getting started is straightforward. Just open PCRM’s unified “Add Record” tool in the top right corner and select “Bulk import.” From there, the process is designed to save you time at every step:
Create reusable templates for data sources you import regularly. These templates remember your field configurations, ensuring consistent and accurate data placement every time. No need to remap the same fields over and over again or document import mappings outside of the system.
The convenient import log gives you a full rundown on the five most recent imports, showing the date, file name, and detailed stats on records added, updated, skipped, or failed.
Simply drag and drop your CSV or MDB file (or browse to select it), indicate which type of record you’re creating, and let PCRM do the heavy lifting. Our machine learning technology intelligently compares your file’s headers to both standard and custom fields in your database, automatically suggesting the best match for each column. You can always fine-tune the mappings manually using dropdown menus if needed.
Define your own criteria for identifying duplicates by selecting one or more fields from your import. When matching records are found, you decide: skip them or update them with fresh information. You can even specify whether blank values should count as matches, giving you precise control over your data integrity.
Once you’ve reviewed your settings and kicked off the import, you don’t have to wait around. Minimize or close the window and get back to what matters while your import continues running in the background.
The newest version of PCRM includes fresh options for customizing your Rollup columns. With this release, users can now apply the same level of customization in Rollups that they can already do within search results:
