Import and Export capabilities between Microsoft Outlook Contacts and TIMS3 Address Book are now supported. (Requires Microsoft Outlook)
Click the "Export to Outlook" menu option in the file menu on the main screen to export a selection of your currently selected set of contacts to your Outlook Contacts database.
Choose the contact(s) you wish to export on the "Select TIMS3 Contact(s) for Export" form.
Click the "Export" button to begin.
Click the "Import from Outlook" menu option to bring up the folder selection window.
After choosing the appropriate contacts folder, users may select the contacts that they would like to import.
The Import process will attempt to create new contact records using the imformation provided by Outlook. However, since each TIMS3 Contact must belong to a valid TIMS3 Company, you may be prompted to create a new company or to select an existing one if the Outlook contact has no company name or its companyname is not recognized.
Creation of a new contact record in the TIMS3 database when importing from Outlook is contingent on your permission levels, using standard TIMS3 security.
