CUSTOMER RECORD MIGRATION · Workflow idea

Move customer records carefully, with preferences intact.

Organize an approved customer export into a clear, compatible import file for a new store. Keep only the information needed for the migration, preserve each person’s contact and marketing choices, and let an authorized teammate verify the records and destination before anything is imported.

01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A customer-record export from a business account that the team is authorized to use

“Prepare customer records for a store migration, preserve contact permissions, and hold the import until an authorized person approves the exact records and destination.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps store teams prepare customer information for a move between systems without losing important contact choices or record context.

  1. Select an authorized customer export

    Confirm that the team may use the source records for this migration and keep the original available for comparison.

  2. Prepare the required customer details

    Organize only the fields needed for store records, such as names, contact details, and existing customer references.

  3. Preserve contact preferences

    Carry forward marketing consent, unsubscribe choices, and other communication restrictions without treating a store migration as new permission.

  4. Check duplicates and incomplete records

    Have a teammate review conflicting profiles, missing details, and records that should be excluded.

  5. Approve the exact import

    Require an authorized owner to confirm the file, destination, and customer permissions before records are imported or used for outreach.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A review-ready customer import file with contact preferences retained and no customer records imported before approval.

The handoff

A review-ready customer import file with contact preferences retained and no customer records imported before approval.

Keep in mind

Customer profiles contain personal information, and an import can create duplicate records or enable unwanted marketing. Limit access to authorized staff, transfer only necessary fields, keep consent and opt-out choices attached to each person, and require a reviewer to check the recipient store and final file before import or any customer contact.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define the migration scope

Choose the source records, destination store, and minimum fields needed for the move.

Set customer privacy and consent rules

Decide who may handle exports, how opt-outs are preserved, and which records must not be used for marketing.

Choose matching and exception practices

Agree how duplicates, missing values, and conflicting contact preferences are sent to a person for review.

Assign import approval

Name the authorized teammate who checks the final records and confirms the destination before import.
