How to Import EzyVet Data into VetCheck

For VetCheck members, where full practice management integrations DO NOT exist, this patient list importer function allows you to upload a patient list (CSV format only) so that VetCheck communications will pre-fill with client/patient data, such as when sharing content in the share modal and forms, or when creating new Hospital, GA, or Dental charts.

Once you have exported an animal patient data list from EzyVet (not client data list) in CSV format, there are only 3 steps required to prepare the data for import:

Step 1 - Organise CSV File

Please note: when exporting a data file from EzyVet, you need to export from the pet details section (this exports both the pet and pet owner details into 1 file). Once downloaded, VetCheck ONLY requires data in the following columns:

  • Animal Id
  • Division
  • Animal Name
  • Animal Weight(kg)
  • Date of Birth
  • Sex
  • Has Passed Away
  • Caution status

  • Physical Address Suburb
  • Physical Address City
  • Physical Address Post Code
  • Physical Address State
  • Physical Address Country
  • Opt Out of Electronic marketing

For the following columns, please keep the header name but clear all of the data:

Step 2 - Replace All Commas

Using the find/replace function, replace all , (commas) with the | (vertical pipe). Also, remove all special characters from the data (e.g. #^!~*%).
