Advanced Options

This section describes the available options in Conference Tracker. To change the Conference Tracker options, you need to click the Settings, below the Advanced Options section from the home page. After changing the options you want, click Save button to apply the changes to your conference.

This is where you go to import your data for the conference. At this point once you have the rooms entered in the Conference Tracker system you are ready to either import your Attendees or Workshops/sessions.

Learn more about importing your Attendees, Sessions/Workshops, and everything else to quickly get started. To make it as simple as possible we have defined an import sample for each type of import for you to follow. By creating a file, as explained below, you can directly upload the file to Conference Tracker so it can validate it and get your conference information ready for use in the system.

Only Comma-Separated-Values (CSV) files are supported for Conference Tracker imports. This format is broadly supported by many application including Microsoft Excel; it also can be created using any simple text editor (such as notepad). In the first line of the file the headers must be included (check the list of valid headers below) with commas separating each of the columns you want to include followed by the data/records separating each column by a comma. In the case you need to have a comma in the some of the data/records itself, you can prevent upload and file formatting errors by enclosing the full value in double quotes.

These users will be added to the system from this type of import and this is a quick definition of their role:

• Administrators - This User type is the one that configures all the settings, import/exports data, and runs the conference. They have the highest level of permissions on a Conference Tracker account.
• Operators - This User type is the one that helps scan attendees, input onsite registrants (Attendees), and can print badges/qr labels. These Users have limited access to the system and are typically your volunteers/members helping at the conference.
• Presenters - This User type is the one that will be the speaker at a session. This user is only imported typically to generate a special badge for them.
• Moderators - This User type has the ability to delete messages on the Attendee app and use the Moderate Messages function on the Conference Tracker website.

To import Administrators, Operators, Presenters and Moderators you need to specify the following headers:

Required:

• FirstName, MiddleInitial, LastName, Email

Optional:

• City, State, Address, ZipCode, PhoneNumber, Title, Company, CustomField1, CustomField2, CustomField3, CustomField4, CustomField5

Optional but helpful to provide information if using Conference Leads or the Attendee App:

• CompanyDescription, CompanyEmail, CompanyPhoneNumber, CompanyStreetAddress, CompanyCity, CompanyState, CompanyZipCode, CompanyContactFirstName, CompanyContactMiddleName, CompanyContactLastName

Once you've got the CSV files prepared and ready, let's move on to uploading your files. To get here just click on the Import Sessions button from the Conference Sessions screen.

To import the CSV files you created you just have to select the import type in the dropdown and then click the upload a file button.

Browse your PC to find the CSV files and click open to upload and done!

A confirmation or error message will appear at the bottom of the screen (pictured above).

These are the possible error messages that you may receive trying to import your CSV files and possible solutions to fix them.

REASON: This error is caused by duplicate e-mails in any of the User (Admin, Attendee, etc.) CSV import files. This can also happen if there are blank e-mails in the file.

FIX: Every User needs a unique e-mail in Conference Tracker. If you don't have an e-mail for the Attendee it is best practice to use a temporary fake e-mail in a format like “first.last@mydomain.org” However if they will not be scanning into Sessions/Workshops then simply delete their record in the Attendee CSV import file.

REASON: Check the corresponding Valid Headers Section above to make sure that the Header row in the file is using the exact headers described. Many issues occur when you accidentally add spaces to the headings as this is the normal way you would read them.

FIX: Simply recheck and update any headers in the CSV import file to match what is required above.

REASON: When the import CSV file has a row duplicated (at least for the card number)

FIX: Use MS Excel's Find & Remove Duplicates option or the MS Excel Conditional formatting > Highlight Cells that are duplicates option to isolate and/or remove these rows.

REASON: Blank Email for some users being imported.

FIX: It is best practice to use a temporary fake e-mail in a format like “first.last@mydomain.org” if you do not have an e-mail for someone you are trying to import or find-out their real e-mail as you'll be able to use e-mail heavily during the conference.

REASON: Exhibitor's Company field is blank and this is a required field on their record.

FIX: Review the import CSV file and fill-out the Company information for each Exhibitor.

REASON: This is a similar issue to the “multiple cards error” as there are multiple users using the same e-mail address. Since e-mail is used heavily in Conference Tracker this is considered every user's primary key. This means all e-mail addresses must be unique even if they all typically use a company shared e-mail address.

FIX: Make sure that the data is not corrupted meaning each user has their proper e-mail address (multiple people were using the same e-mail). It is best practice to use a temporary fake e-mail in a format like “first.last@mydomain.org” if you do not have an e-mail for someone you are trying to import or find-out their real e-mail as you'll be able to use e-mail heavily during the conference.

REASON: The Name of the session is duplicated in the file

FIX: This means you need to adjust the names of the workshops so they are all unique. A good way to correct this would be to simply add the day/date and/or start time on the end of the workshop names.

REASON: Conference Tracker does not track session lasting multiple days.

FIX: Typically this is a mistake in the date/time but if you are having a session lasting several days simply break it up into multiple session for each day it occurs for as many hours you are open for that workshop/session.

REASON: This means you forgot to add at least a number between 1 and 100 in the RequiredPresencePctg field. Or you included the percent symbol which is not required.

FIX: You set the workshop to require Attendees to sign-out but did not specify the percentage of time (1% through 100% of the session) in the RequiredPresencePctg field. If you do not require them to sign-out of the workshop please leave this field blank or if no workshops require sign-out then exclude the column from the import.

REASON: This typically is if you try to upload a file that requires a date/time field. It can also happen when the fields are too long being imported. However if the dates in your import file look good then you may be trying to import too many characters for a field.

FIX: This means you must use the time format specified in the above sections like this “MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM” in military time so it understands this information. This can also happen if you accidentally leave the date/time field blank on even a single record. If that does not work it may be the length of the fields are too large. Below is a table of acceptable field lengths for all the imports:
