The master distribution list file that holds the general distribution lists properties is RM2.csv. It
has following content:
ListID
dl1
dl3
dl4
DL_GROUP2
DL_GROUP
The text files that hold the recipients data for the distribution lists are:
RM2_dl1.csv, RM2_dl3.csv, RM2_dl4.csv, RM2_DL_GROUP2.csv, RM2_DL_GROUP.csv
6.4.5.1.1 Text File Format Specifications for the Distribution Lists
The text file has a simple format. The first row is a header row which defines the fields that are
included in the file, and each following row holds the data for one distribution list.
The file must either be comma separated (.csv) or tab separated (.tsv). This means that each
item in each row must be separated by a comma or a tab.
Header Row
The first row indicates which fields are included, and the order of the fields. Here is a list of the
fields that can be included (Required fields are in bold):
ListID,Description,PriorityHigh,PriorityLow,Status,Company,Department,RecipientCount,UserI
D,Freetext,DelTypeDef
Data Rows
Each following row in the text file is a distribution list. Each data row must have the same
number of fields as the header row.
6.4.5.1.2 Text File Format Specifications for Recipients Data
The text file has a simple format. The first row is a header row which defines the fields that are
included in the file, and each following row holds the data for one address.
Header Row
The first row indicates which fields are included, and the order of the fields. Here is a list of the
fields that can be included (Required fields are in bold): Attention, Service, Number,
RecipientID, UserID, Type, Freetext, DelTypeDef, Company, Department, UserBelongsTo,
Active, DirsyncAllowed
Data Rows
Each following row in the text file is an address. Each address row must have the same
number of fields as the header row. The name of the service must be an available service on
the TCOSS server. The ―Attention‖ field in the text file will be imported to the ―Full name‖ of the
recipient. If the text file contains no ―RecipientID‖, then the ―Attention‖ data in the text file will
be imported to the ―RecipientID‖ of the recipient as well.
Note: Answerback values (i.e. for TELEX) can be ap pended with a ―-―after the address in the
―Number‖ field. For example, to specify a number of 3348, and an answerback of 9987, use
the following syntax: 3348-9987.
Note: The RecipientID field is required, if the option Update Recipient (see 6.4.3.7.2 Handling
Existing Recipients) is selected for the import.
