How to import csv into custom modules? - in SugarCRM

Is it possible to import .csv fields into custom created modules in SugarCRM?

I have created several custom modules, but I can't find an import button for csv fields.

Thanks!

OK, I've just found a working solution: Link: http://www.sugarcrm.com/forums/f148/how-add-import-option-custom-modules-45612/

Add the below line in modules//.php file.

Code:

var $importable = true;

Create the file menu.ext.php in "custom\modules\\Ext\Menus" with below code.

Code:

<?php

if(!defined('sugarEntry') || !sugarEntry) die('Not A Valid Entry Point'); 

if(ACLController::checkAccess('<Module Name>', 'import', true))     $module_menu[]=Array("index.php?module=Import&action=Step1&import_module=<Module Name>&return_module=<Module Name>&return_action=index", "Import","Import", '<Module Name>');

?>

This will add import menu item in the shortcut menu.

thanks for the solution. Only one thing, the rigth route at "Create the file menu.ext.php in "custom\modules\Ext\Menus" with below code" is "custom\Extension\modules\Ext\Menus"

With this, it work fine for me.

I know this may be old but you can download a sample when you click import and it will show you how to do this. It will show your custom fields.

Another possibility (way easier) is to check the button for "Importing" when building a new custom module via the module builder!
