Importing contacts

The addresbook can import contacts from another application. To import contacts you will have to export contacts to a comma seperated values file (*.csv) or a vCard (*.vcf) file from the other application first. Consult the documentation of that application on how to do this.

If you made a CVS file then you click at 'Addressbooks' from the addressbook module. Double click the addressbook where you want to import the contacts to and select the 'Import' tab. Select the CSV file and click at 'Ok'.

The address book file you have selected will be scanned for columns containing data. You can then select which columns from the old program should go to which columns in the webmail address book. After that you can select which of the fields will be imported to what field in Group-Office.

After clicking on 'OK' your address book will be filled with all the data from the address book file. If you open the new address book you will see that it has been filled with all the exported contacts information.

Exporting contacts

It is also possible to export the group office address book to a Comma Seperated Values (*.csv) or vCard (*.vcf) file, you can either export Contacts or Companies. This process creates a file which can be used as a backup, to send it to a colleague for example or import it into another program.
