What you need to do
Step #1
To make sure that your data is properly mapped to what BatchData expects, download the excel templates given below according to the service you may want to use and fill it in with your data. Template file contains required fields only.
If you wish to upload your file instead of the template, please make sure you map the fields appropriately in step #4.
Step 2
Maintain sufficient wallet balance in your BatchData account. You will only be able to upload the file if there is sufficient wallet balance considering the service you are trying to use and the number of records you have in the file.
BatchData will calculate the estimated amount and prompt if wallet balance is insufficient to use the service post file upload.
Step 3
Go to the desired service page and click on File Upload Tab and upload the file.
You can upload maximum 50000 records within the size limit of 10 MB.
Step 4
Map the source fields with the fields from the file you have uploaded. This mapping is very important as it is going to tell BatchData about which input field should be used as an appropriate input for file processing.
Example, the source field state should be mapped with the column in the file which contains state name.
Make sure you map all the fields marked with * correctly. Incorrect mapping will not yield desired output.
If you have used downloaded template, the source fields will be auto mapped with the fields from uploaded file.
Once you review all the source field mappings click on NEXT.
Select the attributes you wish to get in your response file post processing and click OK.
NEXT button will only be available if service has a provision to select attributes to be included in response file. If you do not see NEXT button click on SUBMIT
The total cost will be estimated based on the service and number of records in the file. You will be prompted if the balance is insufficient to complete the processing. Recharge the wallet and repeat the steps from #1 to #4.
Step 5
Once your file is successfully accepted for processing, you will see the processing status against the file on the screen.
Your file will be ready to be downloaded when the processing is finished. On successful processing, the total cost will be deducted from your wallet.
You will be charged for the successfully processed records only.
