Four kinds of export
| Export | Gives | Needs |
|---|---|---|
| Sales | Receipt, date, total, cashier, branch, payment method and code; or one row per item | An Excel or CSV export from the till |
| Invoices and bills | Customer invoices, supplier bills and the parties | An Excel or CSV export |
| Stock movements | Movements with kind, branch, user and cost | An Excel or CSV export |
| Expenses | Expenses with category | An Excel or CSV export |
No column mapping by hand
Ziira finds the header row and decides the columns from their names and contents (dates, amounts, codes, text). Date order and decimal separator are read from the numbers. If a file is ambiguous, it asks once. Lines that cannot be used are left out and listed so you can download the list.
What it can and cannot show
- Control checks are limited to what the export carries: a till export with no voids or discounts cannot show cashier habits.
- Freshness is whenever you upload. Many businesses schedule a daily export.
- A file is read, its rows stored, and the file itself is not kept.
