You can register several vehicles at once using the Import feature. It allows you to import vehicles in bulk from a CSV or XLSX file.
The import process consists of the following steps:
- uploading the required file;
- preparing a table with data to be imported;
- adding a template (optional);
- completing the import and checking the results.
Read more about each step below.
Uploading the file
To upload the file from which you want to import data, follow the steps below:
- In the table of customers, click on the row of the customer for whom you want to register the vehicle.
- Go to the Vehicle tab.
- Click Import.
- Click on the Browse button and select the file you want to upload.
- Click Upload.
- For a CSV file, specify the separator: comma, semicolon, colon, or tab.
- Click Next.
Preparing the table for import
To prepare the uploaded data for import, follow the instructions below.
Specify the headings of the columns. To do this, you can apply a previously saved template or select headings from the drop-down lists above the columns. Mandatory headings are marked with an asterisk (*). For a description of all available columns, see the section Vehicle import table.
If no name is selected for a column, its contents are not imported into the system.- If needed, delete the unnecessary lines. To do this, point to the line and click on the icon at the end of the line.
- Make sure the table shows valid data. To do this, select Invalid in the filter. If nothing is found by the filter, all rows are valid. If invalid data is found, edit it.
- If necessary, save the template so that you can immediately apply the same column order the next time you import data.
