Accounting Documents Import

The online accounting program mKsiegowa.pl allows you to import accounting documents from text files. Such files can be prepared, for example, using Excel and saved in CSV format.

Introduction

You can perform the import is in the module General Ledger → Import Multiple Journal Entries

You need to provide the location of the previously prepared file and provide the following parameters:

  • the character that separates the fields in the file (usually a comma or a semicolon)
  • format of Polish characters
  • check the checkbox, if the file has a header row (column names)

The files should be prepared according to the following rules:

  • all numbers are in PLN; the decimal position should be separated by a period
  • dates given in YYYY-MM-DD format
  • in the file, you must use accounts that exist in the chart of accounts; otherwise, the program will generate an appropriate error message
  • text fields must be enclosed in apostrophes
  • blank lines are skipped

Notes:
