About Import

You can migrate existing data from other issue trackers or databases to CMW Tracker. Data migration is accomplished through a CSV (comma-separated value) or Excel type file. You can also update existing items or documents in a particular CMW Tracker application with new data from a CSV or Excel file.

Benefits

Quick migration process of all data from previous issue tracking system;
Seamless migration: nothing will be lost or forgotten;
Bulk update of existing CMW Tracker tasks and documents with new fields.

How it works

You have created one or more CSV or Excel files that contain data from your previous issue tracking system.

You add the CSV or Excel file to CMW Tracker and map CSV or Excel file fields to CMW Tracker application fields.

If you need to add a new field to existing items or documents in an app, you also map an existing CMW Tracker field to a new field. A CMW Tracker field should be created beforehand.
