4. In Destination folder, select the Strata CS Contact folder into which you want to
import the contacts in the .CSV file.
5. Under Options, select one of the following:
Q Replace duplicates with items imported. If Strata CS finds a duplicate contact in
the .CSV file, the contact from the file will replace the existing Strata CS contact.
Q Allow duplicates to be created. If Strata CS finds a duplicate contact in the .CSV
file, it will import all contacts, even those that are duplicates of Strata CS contacts.
Q Do not import duplicate items. If Strata CS finds duplicate contacts in the .CSV
file, it will not import them.

imported contacts’ phone numbers to Strata CS’s list of Caller ID numbers so that
