Importing SalesForce Contact History in BCM

[Guest]

Hi,
Do you have any suggestions on how I can import my contact history contained
in Sales Force into BCM? I'm interested in moving my company off of Sales
Force and onto BCM but I need to make sure all of our history can be migrated.
Thanks
Ray

You export basic Sales Force contact data to CSV and import that file
into BCM.

To import history, you would need to convert the Sales Force data into
a BCM (XML) file.

BCM has a mechanism (Data Conversion Tool) for importing data from
third party applications to BCM files. BCM ships with import modules
for ACT! and QB, but not Sales Force. The tool is extensible, so that
anyone can write an import module that will work with the tool, but as
far as I know, the only import modules available are the ones that
ship with the product in the USA.
