Import master data (products, customers, suppliers) from an Excel file under Settings → Data Import/Export. Download the template first to match the expected columns.

Understanding the fields

  • Import template — download this first; its column headers are what BillBasket expects (name, price, tax rate, opening stock, etc.). Typing data into a spreadsheet with different column names or order will fail to map correctly.
  • Import file — your filled-in copy of the template, uploaded back in. BillBasket reads every row and creates the matching records in one pass.
  • Master vs. transactional data — this importer is for master data (products, customers, suppliers, opening stock) that exists before any billing happens. It isn’t for importing historical invoices or transactions — those are created going forward through normal billing.

See it on your device

Import Data lives in Settings → Data, alongside Export Data, Local Backup & Restore, Cloud Backup, and External database — all grouped together in the same left-hand menu section.
