Import a contact person or (co-)author

To 'Import' new contact persons/(co-)authors into the system, click the 'Import' button at the top of the people list page in the abstract module.

Here you can download and fill in an excel template, which you can then upload to the system in order to create your new contact persons/(co-)authors and their abstracts.

Use the 'Download template' button to download the excel template to enter your contact persons/(co-)authors. Please note that you can only import people who are attached to an abstract.
You need the abstract ID to connect the person to the abstract.
On the first tab of the excel all fields of your congress are shown, which you can import.

If you use fields with a pulldown or radio button, the second tab shows the values you can use per field.

To connect the person to an abstract, enter the abstract ID/IDs in the corresponding role the person has for the abstract.
