Importing your data

Load products, customers and opening stock from a spreadsheet instead of typing them in.

The Importing your data screen in MC-POS.
The Importing your data screen in MC-POS.

Steps

  1. Open it

    My Business → Import Data.

  2. Download the template

    Use the supplied template for the type you are importing. The column names must match.

  3. Fill it in

    Keep SKUs unique. Leave a cell empty rather than writing "N/A" — empty means "use the default".

  4. Upload and review

    MC-POS shows you what it read and flags rows it cannot accept before anything is written.

  5. Confirm

    Only then are the records created.

Good to know

  • Set up categories, units and tax rates first. Importing products that reference a category you have not created yet will fail those rows.
  • Import ten rows as a test before importing ten thousand.
