Why is the import done by a scheduled task? Is this solely because it runs in background or can we put an xls file somewhere on the server which will be imported each 45 minutes? I couldn't find any information about  this in the manual...

Feature request:
It would be nice if we could set up the module for users in such a way that they can only select an import definition and upload a file. This way we could prepare import definitions and our users could use them, without making any changes...
They should also be able to see the import logs after the import, since they're not superusers they cannot access the 'Scheduled Tasks' menu item.

Hi. Thanks for the questions... When Interactive User Import was initially designed/released the module was setup to use the scheduler for several reasons but specifically performance and timeout issues with large implementations... Since the initial release though we have had many customers request additional features so we are on the process of reviewing and adding these. The biggest request is the ability to use a static file and make the imports recurring. We currently have a client that is paying for these enhancements to be added before the next release so this is speeding up the development process. Within the next release (should be 2-3 weeks out) you will be able to specify a static file, make the import recurring, and also implement other feature such as importing only a specific number of users per import run, setting up a global filter which must match before the record is imported, and other logging enhancements within the scheduler. If you currently own IUI and want to receive the beta for this next release please open a support ticket on Snowcovered and we can provide this.



Here is a screenshot of these upcoming features...

 

Also... regarding your enhancement requests, we will review this for future updates. Its possible you could use another module (such as our Dynamic Forms) that would then allow the user to upload a file and with some behind the scenese to accomplish your needs.
