&lt;p&gt;I recommend that you first export the leads that you have imported into Method:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;Customize &amp;gt; Integration Tools&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Select &lt;b&gt;Export a table to a file&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Pick the &lt;b&gt;Customer&lt;/b&gt; table from the dropdown&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Choose the following fields to export:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;a.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;RecordID&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;b.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;FirstName&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;c.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;LastName&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;d.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;FullName&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;e.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;SalesRep&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;f.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;IsActive&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;g.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Name&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Choose the format of &lt;b&gt;&amp;ldquo;Comma-Separated Values&amp;rdquo;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Click on &lt;b&gt;Export to File&amp;hellip;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;7.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;In the .CSV file, you can now mass update the data under the &amp;ldquo;SalesRep&amp;rdquo; column heading.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;8.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Save the updated file&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now we can update the lead customers with the new data by doing the following:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;Customize&amp;gt;Integration Tools&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Select &lt;b&gt;Import into a table from a file&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Pick the &lt;b&gt;Customer&lt;/b&gt; table from the dropdown&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Click on &lt;b&gt;Choose File&lt;/b&gt; and on the &lt;b&gt;Open&lt;/b&gt; window, select the file that was created&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Click on &lt;b&gt;Import Data&amp;hellip;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;In step 2, checkmark &amp;ldquo;Update existing records by matching the key fields&amp;rdquo;. Make sure &amp;ldquo;RecordID&amp;rdquo; is checked off&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;7.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;For all of the fields, except the &amp;ldquo;RecordID&amp;rdquo; and &amp;ldquo;SalesRep&amp;rdquo; , select &lt;b&gt;Do Not Import&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;8.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Click on &lt;b&gt;Import Data&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;9.&lt;span style="white-space:pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;In the next screen, click on &lt;b&gt;Begin Import&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hope that helps.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ronen&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is the best way to achieve this goal?&lt;/p&gt;
