Coghead customers - Migrate directly to Qrimp


Dramatically accelerate your Coghead migration effort with Qrimp's Coghead Data Import tool.

Posted By Randall on 2/28/2009 12:21:00 AM

In our continuing effort to support Coghead customers, we've developed an import tool that will allow you to enter your username and password and then download your data directly into your Qrimp Application.

Here's a 3 minute video demonstrating the Coghead Import Tool in action.

Here's a simple howto that will walk you through using the Import Tool to pull in your Coghead data.

Step 1: Go to the Coghead Download
Type download.aspx after your application name. Something like this

http://yourapp.qrimp.com/download.aspx

and you will see the Coghead download page.

Step 2: Enter your Coghead Username and Password





Step 3-5: Browse to your application







Step 6: Select collections to import

After selecting the application to import, you will see a list of data collections in the Application. Please note that Qrimp uses the standard database term "table" where Coghead uses the word "collection."



After importing the collection, you will see a list of imported records and a link to download more collections. Qrimp automatically adds a menu tab so you can see your data easily.



After importing, Qrimp preserves your data relationships. We are going to clean up the appearance of our data in the next step.




Step 7: Set default fields
After importing your data, you can view the records by clicking on the tabs Qrimp creates for you automatically.

You'll notice that the CGRecordID is there to show the record identifier. If you do not need this field, we suggest deleting it, or if you may need this field later, hide it using column level security. Let's see the same record after we have deleted all our CGRecordIDs.

After we delete the CGRecordID, our Qrimp app looks more user friendly:

Step 8: Finalizing your imported data

After importing your Coghead information. A few more minutes configuring security, menus, and a little bit of field layout and you will be ready to use your imported Qrimp app.

Of course we are here to help you through this process. We're looking forward to working with you! Call to speak to a live human being: US (972) 930-0629.
