Import QVX to Salesforce Automatically
Looking to import data from QVX to Salesforce?
Advanced ETL Processor Enterprise provides everything you need to automate the data import without writing custom scripts. Visually map and transform your fields, then run the Import immediately or schedule it to repeat automatically.
QVX (QlikView Data eXchange) is a structured, columnar file format used by Qlik tools to export large datasets. It's fast and compact - but not natively supported by Salesforce.
Advanced ETL Processor reads QVX files directly and connects to Salesforce through the API, making it easy to insert or update records in custom and standard Salesforce objects.

How to Import QVX to Salesforce - Step-by-Step
1. Launch Advanced ETL Processor
From the object tree:

- Create a new Salesforce Connection using your login and security token
2. Create a New Transformation
Right-click a transformation group and click New to open the dataflow designer.
3. Configure QVX Reader
- Double-click to open Reader Properties
- Set datasource type to QVX
- Select Source Connection Directory
- Choose your QVX file and confirm the field structure
4. Configure Salesforce Writer

- Select the Salesforce object (e.g., Contact, Lead, or Custom)
- Choose Insert, Update, Upsert, or Delete mode
5. Map and Transform Fields
Connect fields manually or use AutoMap. You can:

FAQ
Can Advanced ETL Processor import QVX to Salesforce?
Yes. Advanced ETL Processor can read QVX, map fields, validate data, write to Salesforce, and log the import.
Do I need to write scripts for the import?
No scripting is required for the normal import workflow. You can configure the reader, writer, mapping, validation, and schedule visually.
Can the QVX import run on a schedule?
Yes. The package can run on a schedule, process matching QVX files, archive originals, and write rows to Salesforce with the same validation rules each time.
Can imported data be transformed before loading?
Yes. You can clean values, convert data types, calculate fields, split columns, and apply lookup rules before writing to the target.
Can bad rows be logged or rejected?
Yes. Add validation rules so rejected rows, failed files, row counts, and error details are visible after each run.
What should I check before the first production import?
Check source layout, target table, key fields, data types, date formats, write mode, archive folder, and failure handling.
When should I not automate the import yet?
Do not automate it until the source layout, target table, key fields, and bad-row handling are clear. Automation repeats rules; it does not invent them.
Can I test the import before buying?
Yes. Download the fully functional 30-day trial, build one small import, and test it with a deliberately awkward sample file.
