Rollbase doesn't import empty values

[romain.pennes@foederis.fr]

Hello, When doing an import from a XLS or CSV file to a Rollbase object, Rollbase doesn't import empty values from the file. This means that if a certain field in Rollbase already has a value in Rollbase, it won't be "emptied" from a corresponding empty cell in the file that is being imported. When doing an import from a xls or cv file, a column may contain "filled" cells as well as "empty" cells depending on each row. As of now, If Rollbase sees a "filled" cell, it imports it into the corresponding Rollbase field. However, if it sees an "empty" cell, Rollbase does nothing (it does not put an empty value in the corresponding Rollbase field) If I import an employee file for instance, a column "Phone number" may contain phone numbers for some employees and contain nothing (empty value) for some other employees. When doing a single import from this file, we would like that Rollbase empties the "phone number" field for the employees that have no phone number in the xls/csv file, while importing values for employees that have a phone number in the file. Thank you, Romain Pennes.
