	Importing from MLS

If you've already entered your listing information on your MLS, you may be able to import that data directly into your listings manager. To import listings from your MLS...

From your Listings admin, click Manage Listings in the My Listings menu.
Click the Import a listing from the MLS link.
First, select your local MLS from the drop-down menu. Depending on your MLS, you may be prompted to fill out and send in a signed agreement before proceeding. This is entirely up to your MLS, so simply follow the instructions provided in your XSite before proceeding. Once this is complete, you will not have to do it again.
Then enter the Agent ID and Office ID supplied by your local MLS. Click Continue.
If you're importing listings for the first time, you're prompted to download, sign, and send an agreement to your local MLS. Until this is complete, you will not be able to import from MLS.

If you've previously handled the MLS agreement, you have two options. Select your desired options and click Preview. Options are:

Show all of my listings - Display all of your listings in the MLS so you can browse them and selectively import them.
Show these specific MLS numbers -Show just the listings you enter (by comma separated MLS numbers) and then select them from the preview list.


		Note: Remember that just because the listings are there does not mean you necessarily have the right to import them into your listings manager. If the listings are not yours make sure you have permission from the listing owner before adding it.

Flip through the listings that appear and select listings you want to import. As necessary, you can click Back and Next at the bottom of the screen to flip through pages of listings. To select the entire list of listings that your XSite finds, click the All link above the grid. To select just the listings currently on screen, click the Displayed link above the grid.
Click Import to start the import process.
Once the import is complete, click Close to close the window and return to the listings manager or repeat these steps to import another batch of listings.

Once your listings are imported, don't forget to edit them and add important details like the Listing Date, the Expiration Date and which Publishing options you prefer to use.
