SugarCRM doesn't allow importing of HTML into its database, as it could cause a XSS (Cross Site Scripting vulnerability). If you need to insert a newline, just place a \n inside the CSV file. NOTE most fields in SugarCRM don't support multi-line.

  • Ok i got my answer , I removed strip_tag from importer.php and its working now . Thanks – user3016151 Nov 21 '13 at 09:04
  • I suggest to not remove strip_tag, it would allow someone to inject HTML into your SugarCRM database, which is NOT recommended, it could lead to a compromise of your server – Noam Rathaus Nov 21 '13 at 10:28
