Confirm and Process a CSV Import

When Preview is required, QCFUM commits only after staff select Import Ready Rows. The confirmation request carries the normalized CSV payload plus the selected default method/Profile/Invite Pack, then QCFUM parses and checks the rows again.

Commit is not a blind replay of the Preview screen. Each row still passes current validation, duplicate checks, method settings, Profile/Pack availability, entitlement, quotas, and the underlying Direct Create or Invite Link workflow.

Before You Commit

  • Confirm Ready, Duplicate, and Invalid counts.
  • Expand each distinct method/Profile/Pack combination.
  • Correct any unexpected fallback to a default Profile or Pack.
  • Make sure you intend to send emails or create blocked/pending accounts where approval applies.

What Happens Per Row

Effective methodCommit action
Direct CreateResolves the row Profile, rechecks duplicates, then creates a Joomla user using source type csv_direct and the CSV Direct welcome template.
Invite LinkRechecks duplicates, resolves the Invite Pack, then uses the normal Invite creation path with CSV context and the CSV Invite Link email template.

Rows Are Rechecked

Invalid identity data and disabled methods are skipped. Duplicates are checked again. A Direct row fails if its resolved Profile is unavailable. An Invite row can fail the normal Pack/Profile/license checks. This protects against state changes between Preview and commit.

Approval During Commit

CSV Direct rows use the dedicated CSV direct-created users require approval setting. CSV Invite rows use the normal Invite creation path, so CSV Invite Links require approval can hold them pending; the general Invite-Link approval setting can also require approval.

After Processing

QCFUM records Created, Invite Links, Skipped, and Failed counts, writes a CSV-import audit record, renders per-row final results, and sends the configured CSV summary notifications. Review the result screen before closing the workflow.
