Please visit for details about how to import data into CaseFox.

 [If your existing system can export the client list, case list (with client references), and time entries (with case references) in tabular form into CSV or Excel formats, we may be able to import the data into your account. Please email the exported data files to us.]

Note that CaseFox can also import your Google contacts with just a few clicks. Visit "Settings/Tools/Reports" -> "Import Clients". 

If you want to import from other sources, please follow the following instructions. CaseFox also supports import through vCards. Please click on the above link for instructions.

Import QuickBooks IIF File with CUST! entries

1. Export your client list in CSV/IIF file format from QuickBooks or other programs that are capable of exporting client lists in IIF format. After exporting, run Microsoft Excel and open the IIF file. Excel will show a data format conversion dialog box. Click Finish with default settings. Then in Excel, click on Save As, and in file type select CSV type and save.

2. In CaseFox, click on "Settings/Tools/Reports" and then select the Import Clients option on the left side menu bar. Select the exported file and click on Upload. If the file is in the correct format, a list of clients will be displayed. Verify data and click on the "create clients" button just above the displayed to be imported data table.
 

Import using Excel/CSV or vCard - Prepare file (version 3.0)

1. Export your client list in Excel file format from another software (if CSV or XLS, open the CSV or XLS file in Excel and do a SaveAs to XLSX format). If the system displays a file read error, the file may be protected. Please make a copy by doing SaveAs in Excel into XLSX format.

Using vCards - Many software applications (e.g., MS Outlook, Google Mail, etc.) also allow exporting contacts as vCards. If the application supports vCard export, you may export more than one contact in one vCard file and use the vCard file, instead of CSV or XLS file, to import your contacts/clients into CaseFox^TM. Prior to exporting vCard file, ensure that the all contacts include email and postal addresses.

2. (Skip this step if using a vCard file) Make sure that the first row of the spreadsheet in your Excel file contains column headers (e.g., First Name, Last Name).

3. (Skip this step if using a vCard file) First Name and Last Name are required columns.

4. (Skip this step if using a vCard file) Client's Email column is also needed. However, if not provided (or if provided but not all clients have emails), your email will be used.
 

Import the formatted file into your CaseFox account

1. Login to your CaseFox account.

2. Click on the "Settings/Reports" link in the right top corner.

3. Click on "Import Clients from File". On the right side panel, click on "Choose File." Pick your Excel or vCard file and click Ok.

4. Click on "Upload File."

Note: If you are having difficulty importing the client list, please email the CSV/XLS/vCard file to service(at)casefox.com

from your registered email. We will attempt to import the client list into your account.

Automatic Update

If the same client list is imported again, client information is updated instead of creating new entries in the CaseFox client list. Therefore, no two entries with the same First Name, Last Name, Company, and Email are created.
