CiviCRM features: Develop a CiviSync module that can run scheduled data sync operations between external data sources<br />
<br />
== One line summary ==<br />
<br />
Develop a new module for CiviCRM called CiviSync that would piggyback on the existing import/export functionality to allow the definition of external data sources and schedule sync operations between them and CiviCRM.<br />
<br />
== Description ==<br />
<br />
[CiviCRM : http://civicrm.org] is a powerful constituent relationship management system designed for the not for profit/nongovernmental organizations. It currently integrates with Joomla! 1.0.x and 1.5 in legacy mode, and the 2.1 version will be native to Joomla! 1.5.<br />
<br />
Currently manual imports and exports of contact and activity data can be performed using features already available in CiviCRM. This consists of uploading/downloading CSV (comma-separated values) files and defining their schema (column names and how they map to CiviCRM's fields).<br />
