Hi all-
Thanks for a great piece of software. I've installed for a client switching from a major ATS because of budgetary constraints, and so far the install, customization, and general usage and performance has been far better than I anticipated for opensource software. Great product so far.

Our only snag has been importing their database into the opencats db. I had no problem using the import tool for candidates, companies, resumes, etc, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to import Job Orders. It seems odd that they would be omitted, though I can possibly imagine why they would be from a database schema standpoint, but am I just overlooking something? Is there an easy tool for doing this, or will I need to pull their old db and manually merge with SQL?

However if you want to stay on a released version, then you will have to directly edit the MySQL for now. If you have any technical questions for the developers then you can post an issue in github or join the opencats slack channel.
