If you are unfamiliar with how Asset Imports in AdvisorEngine CRM operate, see Asset Import Overview before proceeding.

Setup and Export from Tamarac

Before importing Tamarac asset information into AE CRM, you will need to obtain a data export from Tamarac. Contact Tamarac for assistance on retrieving your Asset information. This file will be in a CSV format. The CSV file will be a snapshot of your current data and must be re-created from Tamarac each time you want to run an asset import.

You may download and view a sample of a Tamarac Import CSV below.
