Start by downloading a template file

  1. Go to Group Settings.
  2. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on Upload Registers. You will be taken to the Upload page.
  3. Download the xlsx-file (template) you need.

Edit the xlsx-file

  1. Open the xlsx-file
  2. Open your old register
  3. Copy and past your old records in the xlsx-file under respective column
    • If your old register is an xlsx file (or file that can be resaved in xlsx), you can also change the headers in your old register so that they match the headers in the template file.
  4. If there are no corresponding headings, leave the table blank. You cannot add fields that are not in the template file. The order of the headings is not important, but the names must not be changed.  Read more under Generally applies.

Upload the file

  1. Go back to the page Upload.
  2. Select section you want to upload records to and press Choose File…
  3. A green bar indicates that the upload is in progress. It is fine to leave the page, the upload is not interrupted. When the upload is complete, the system prints how many records were in the file and how many were uploaded. If the numbers are different, it is because some record could not be uploaded.

Doesn’t it work?

A common error is that formatting remains in the file, which means that it cannot be uploaded. Then try to open the file again and clear formatting and then save the file again. If you use Excel, the function Clear – Clear format is in the menu under Start.

What can be uploaded?

You can find all the different xlsx files that you use to create your upload file on the Upload Register / Upload. In each file there are different headings, some headings must be filled in, as customer number and name in the Customer Register and description for service objects.

These files are currently available. If you have just started with Serviceprotokoll.se, start by uploading your customer register as it is the basis for the entire system.

Import a storage

*If you use the storage function and have made an inventory, you can upload it to replenish the register. You will then receive the articles with stock balance and storage locations directly.

**If an inventoried article is missing from your article register, it will be added to the article register when you upload the inventory.

Learn more about importing a storage/inventory here.

Generally applies:

  • ALWAYS download a new file when creating a file to upload as the files changes and updates from time to time.
  • The file contains a number of preset headers. These headers must be in the file you create but do not have to be in this exact order.
  • The file must not contain any formatting. If you use Excel, the function Clear – Clear format is in the menu under Start.
  • Always start by uploading a small number of records to see that everything will be and end up right.
  • Always upload the registry itself before uploading the registry parts file. Ex: First the file Service object, then the file Service object, parts.
  • A service object that is a “parent object” must have a serial number if you want to be able to upload child objects.
  • If the date is to be specified (f.i installationdate), the default is yyyy-mm-dd, but pretty much all variations are accepted.
