After uploading the data source file from the STEP 1 instructions, click the Select Object dropdown menu to choose the exact group data/table or Record Type in Paradigm that will match your source file. e.g. choose Program if the data that you want to import are base course data, Student if the source file contains student data or information, etc.
After selecting an object, proceed with the data mapping.
BE ADVISED:
This step must be taken with the highest level of care and accuracy as this will determine how and where your data are saved in the system. To view a list of importable objects in Paradigm and their descriptions, click here.
NOTE:
If you are only doing updates on selected fields, only set the Paradigm Field column of the equivalent column name in your file that you want to be updated.
In the example below, only the Status column is mapped to a Paradigm Field if the intention is to only update the student status.
After youβve mapped all the fields, click the SAVE COLUMN BINDINGS button to proceed to the next step: Match the External Values to Paradigm Values
