Enhancement for emergency contact data import
Merged
Doing a Data Import for Emergency contacts failed because the phone numbers and user relationship did not match. This failed because many of the contacts in the file are not current users in the system with relationships to the students. I feel that this defeats the purpose of the data import. We currently do not allow parents to update emergency contacts on their own. I would like to see the data import allow contacts that are not otherwise in the system.

Additionally, rows in the completed import file do not indicate any failure if a contact already exists as 'inactive'. The inability of this Data Import to move contacts from 'inactive' to 'active', and then not to even state that nothing was changed (again, said 'Processed') is very frustrating!

The adding of emergency contacts is very cumbersome for parents and we have all the data from our old system but cannot upload because the users are not in the system. Very frustrating that there is no way to do a data import!
