GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS:
- All headers that are green in the template are required fields to fill out. If it is blue, it is optional, and you can leave the cell blank. Note that some fields may be conditionally optional - meaning the field may be blue to start, but will turn green if it becomes required based on other information you add.
- Make sure the building name matches exactly how it is in Measurabl.
- If there is a dropdown menu in any of the cells, please use one of the options from the menu.
- All dates should be in MM/DD/YYYY format.
- Only input 1 line of data per row.
- Please do not enter hyphens or slashes into a cell to indicate “null” or “no value”. Just leave the cell blank.
- Please do not add additional columns, fields, or alter the template in any way.
- Bulk uploads can not be reversed once they are processed by our team, so it is important to quality check the data before submitting it.
Once you've completed the bulk upload, you can send it to support@measurabl.com for processing.
