How To: Check Data Imports in SchoolMessenger

[#1]

SchoolMessenger Communicate retains data import history, which can be viewed after the fact. Note: Unless permissions have been changed, only System Administrators and other top-level users have the permissions necessary to view import history. Users without the necessary permissions will not see the necessary sections of SchoolMessenger.

Check Files and Last Run Times

1. Log in to SchoolMessenger Communicate
2. Select the Admin tab, then Imports

The File Date displays the date and time a file was last imported. The Last Run date displays the date and time a file was last run in the live database to be available for use. Not all files that have been imported will have been run.

Force an Import To Run

1. Log in to SchoolMessenger Communicate
2. Select the Admin tab, then Imports
3. Select Actions next to the file you want to run
