Importing SIMS Data

SIMS data is typically imported to IRIS ParentMail automatically using a link, but if required you can manually import data. You can also run a report to view the data that has been imported from SIMS.

We recommend activating the SIMS Autolink, which automatically syncs data from SIMS overnight. For more information, go to Set Up the SIMS Autolink or play the video in our Training Centre.

Before you can import SIMS data in IRIS ParentMail, in SIMS you need to check the data has been entered correctly, set the permissions, upload the IRIS ParentMail report definition file.

When you have imported the data, a Rejected Records report is generated with details of any data that could not be imported. For more information, go to Run Rejected Records Report.
