      • If you want to include forms that are missing payments or if you want to include forms you already imported check off these boxes in the top right corner.

      • Automatic– some forms cannot be done this way – it will tell you if cannot do it.
        • Use this option mostly for consent forms, when just a yes/no answer is needed.
        • You can do Tuition Contracts on Automatic.  However, please note that it is better if you first test this out and do a few manually to make sure everything is pre-filled correctly before you mass import it.
