• <phone number> <CRLF>
Note: Because there is no time period given in the last example, the default import time period will apply
(See “Default Time Period” below.).
The phone number field can include the characters 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 ( ) . - # x X a A b B c C d D. Phone
numbers and time periods can contain quotes; quotes will be stripped out by the import function and
changed to spaces. This also means that the format “phone number”, “time period code” will be imported
correctly. The quotes will be changed to spaces, creating the comma-space separator, and other additional
spaces will be stripped out by the import function. Examples are as follows:
555-1000
555-1200<TAB> 28
555-1127<Comma Space>28
555-1666<Space Space>28
“555-1299”<Comma Space>”28”
Note: If last line of your .csv or .txt file is a space. it may cause errors.
Note: If the comma is to be used as a Pause when dialing a given Phone Number, please enclose the
comma and Phone Number together in Double Quotes, and enclose the Time Period in Double quotes,
separating both by another comma: “555-1000,3”,”28”
6.1.2 Importing Phone Numbers with associated Notes
To import associated notes with each phone number, you must import the time period code as well.
Otherwise, PhoneSweep will give you “Incorrect Time Period” error on import. To include associated
notes, use one of the following 3 formats:
• <phone number> <Tab> <time period code><Tab>Note <CRLF>
• <phone number> <Comma Space> <time period code> <Comma Space><Note> <CRLF>
• “<phone number>”<comma>”<Timeperiod code>”<comma>”<Note>”<CRLF>
6.1.3 Time Period codes
The time period code is a number that encodes the time period(s) during which a phone number should be
called. Whether or not you change the time period values from their default values using the Time tab, the
codes remain the same.
The time period codes (in decimal) are:
Time Period(s) Value
Business Hours 2
Outside Hours 12
Weekends 16
Business Hours & Outside Hours 14
Business Hours & Weekends 18
Outside Hours & Weekends 28
