How do I import a procedure into SweetProcess?

The instructions below will show you how to import an existing procedure into SweetProcess.

Use this feature when you have procedures that are not yet in your organization's SweetProcess account and you want to migrate them quickly so that you and/or your employees can make any necessary changes or improvements to these documents within SweetProcess.

Please note whenever you import a procedure we add a tag titled “imported” so that it is easy for you to filter/find documents you imported.

    Here's how you should format the document so the title, description and the steps can be automatically detected by SweetProcess when importing:
     
    It is important to use the built in heading styles to format your headings (Heading 1, Heading 2 etc). If you simply make the text larger and change colour our import system will not understand these to be headings.
