You can export your sales data from Zoho DataPrep to Zoho CRM using the Zoho CRM connector. You can use Zoho DataPrep to perform
data cleanup
,
data migration
, and
data backup
in more than one way. Here's a quick video on how to use Zoho DataPrep to clean CRM data.
To export data to Zoho CRM
1. Click the
Export now
option from the
Export
menu in the
DataPrep Studio
page.
2. You can search for Zoho CRM
under the
All destinations tab or filter using the
Zoho Apps
category and click on it.
3. Choose the
Organization
and
Module
in Zoho CRM to which you want to export your data. You can export data to one of these modules in Zoho CRM:
Leads
Contacts
Accounts
Deals
Campaigns
Vendors
Cases
Solution
Price_Books
Products
Other modules to export data to in Zoho CRM:
Subforms
Custom modules
4. Choose one of the below options to determine how to handle the data being exported to Zoho CRM:
Add only new records
: Using this option you can only add newly imported records from Zoho CRM.
Only update existing records
: Using this option, you can update the existing records in Zoho CRM that match the selected field (match based on field).
Both add and update records
: This option will update the records that match the selected field provided and insert those records that do not match the selected field value.
5. The
ID
field is used to match the data and is prefilled from your CRM module. However, you can manually choose the desired field from the
Match based on field
dropdown. But please make sure that the field is
Marked as Required
and marked as
Do not allow duplicates
in your CRM module.
Click here
to know more.
Note: If you are exporting data that was imported from any source other than Zoho CRM, m
ake sure you select a value in the
Match based on field
manually.
6. When you choose to update existing records, you can also
Skip emptying a field when updating existing records
. This will avoid data loss when updating records if DataPrep has an empty field whereas the CRM record already has data.
7. When you are exporting data to the same module that you imported from, you may choose to
Delete records from CRM
that do not match the exported data. For example, if you've imported records from the
Leads
module and removed duplicates, you may choose to delete those duplicate records from Zoho CRM when you export back to the same
Leads
module.
You can also review the records before deleting using the
Review records to be deleted
link.
8. Click
Next
to view the
Export Summary
. The summary consists of the details such as the destination, module name, number of records to be exported, and the target match check result.
9. If the target match check fails, you need to fix the errors by completing the
target matching
steps. If the target match check is passed, you can proceed with exporting your data to CRM.
Info
: Target matching is a useful feature in DataPrep that prevents export failures caused due to errors from the data model mismatch. Learn more about
target matching
.
Info
: You also have an option to rollback your export because of partial failures or other problems during the export.

10. Click the
Export
button to export your data instantly to Zoho CRM.
Target matching during export to Zoho CRM
Target matching happens before the data is exported to the destination. Target matching is a useful feature in DataPrep that prevents export failures caused due to errors from the data model mismatch. Using target matching, you can set the required Zoho Analytics table as the target and align the source dataset columns to match with your target CRM module fields. This ensures seamless export of high quality data to Zoho CRM.
Note: Target matching failure is not an export failure. Target matching happens before the data is actually exported to the destination. This way the schema or data model errors that could cause export to fail are caught beforehand preventing export failures.

When target match check fails
1. If the target match check fails during Zoho CRM export, you can click the
View error details
link from the
Export summary
pane to get an overview of the errors.
2. The
Target match errors
panel shows the different model match errors and the number of columns associated with each error.
Pro Tip: The default view shows only the error columns, but you can always uncheck the
Show only error
checkbox to view all the columns.
The errors in target matching are explained below:
Unmatched columns
: This option filters the columns in the source dataset that do not match the columns in the target.
Info
: When using the unmatched columns filter, you can toggle the
Show only mandatory columns
to verify if there are any mandatory columns required and include
them.
Data type mismatch
: This option filters the columns from the source dataset having data types that do not match the columns in the target.
Data format mismatch
: This option filters columns from the source dataset having data formats that differ from those in the target dataset.
Constraint mismatch
: This option filters the columns that do not match the data type constraints of the columns in the target. To know how to add constraints for a column,

.
Mandatory columns mismatch
: This option filters the columns that are mandatorily required in your target.
Data size overflow warnings
: This option filters the columns with data exceeding the maximum size allowed in the target.
3. You can return to your dataset to fix the column-level issues shown in the
Target match errors
pane using the
Fix errors
button.
To make it easier for you to fix the errors, the target module in your Zoho CRM is attached as a target to your dataset. You can view the mapping of your dataset with the CRM module in the DataPrep studio page along with the errors wherever there is a mismatch. You can hover over the error icons to understand the issue and click on them to resolve each error.
The
Target match errors
section shows the errors and the number of columns associated with each error.
The section at the top lists the error categories along with the number of errors in each category.
You can click them to filter errors related to each category in the panel.
In the default view, all columns are displayed. However, you can click any error category and get a closer look at the columns or view the error columns alone by selecting the
Show only errors
checkbox.
Your filter selection in the
Target match errors
panel will also be applied on the grid in the
DataPrep Studio
page.
4. After fixing the errors you can proceed with exporting your data to Zoho CRM.
5. Once the export is complete, the export summary widget shows the number of records inserted, updated, deleted, and in some cases, failed to export, if there were any.

feature. You can rollback even a successful export if you want to. Learn more about rollback in the next section.
