Add jobs in bulk
You can bulk-create any type of job and use the range of filters to select which clients the jobs will be created for. You can narrow the list of bulk-created jobs to specific fields, for example client type, or any dynamic fields you created in Contacts.
Import WIP
To import your WIP records into CCH iFirm, you need to prepare a .csv file using the template provided in CCH iFirm. If you have several jobs on the go for a client, you can import the total WIP as a lump sum in one .csv file, and then use the WIP transfer feature in CCH iFirm to create the individual jobs. Alternatively, you can import the individual jobs but this requires multiple .csv files.
