Step 2: Provide our team with required settings

We will need you to confirm if there are any flags or types of information within Extended Contacts that you prefer not to import into your forms. For example, if you do not wish to include certain contacts, such as the third contact on a list or contacts categorized as “Doctor,” we can filter them out. Otherwise, all contacts will be imported by default.

To help us customize the import process, please email us the following details:
  1. Will "parent" contacts have the "IsCustodialContact" box checked?
  2. Will the "RelationshipType" field include specific values, such as "Parent"?
  3. Is there any sensitive information you'd prefer not to import into Clevr? For example, would you like to exclude contacts with certain relationship types, like "Grandmother" or "Friend"?
  4. Do you want to limit the data import to specific relationship types or flags? For instance, importing only contacts with a "Custody" or "Lives With" designation, or restricting it to relationships such as "Father" or "Mother"?
  5. Please provide a list of forms and form fields you would like to integrate with the SIS data from the extended contacts.
Info
These filters will be applied to the form. Data that meets the filter criteria will be excluded from the form.

Here are a few examples of filters:
  1. A set position of the data to be excluded such as "The third contact on the list"
  2. Specific relationship types you want to limit the data to such as father / mother, etc.
  3. Active/Inactive flags such as Import contacts with "Custody" flag set or "Lives With" flag set
The fields listed below can be used as a filter:
  1. ContactLangComp
  2. HomeRoom
  3. IsCustodialContact
  4. IsEmergencyContact
  5. IsLivesWithContact
  6. IsReceivesMailContact
  7. IsSchoolPickupContact
  8. Relationshiptype

Info
Once you have installed the plugin and confirmed these details, our team will complete the configuration and contact you when the work has been completed.
