Tax Parcel Update

This article shows how to update your parcel database in Community Development (formerly CivicGov). 

Important Notes

• The user must be a container administrator to access the import area.
• Ensure the columns (fields) are in the same order as the last file uploaded. This was configured by your implementation consultant during the initial system configuration.
• The fields from the CSV have previously been matched to our parcel table fields and they do not need to be updated. Specifically, the spreadsheet (CSV) used for the import must have the columns (fields) in the exact order configured with your implementation consultant.
