In order for data to be imported correctly, we need to follow a template, in other words, we must follow a model prepared by our software engineers. So no need to import an Excel that you just downloaded from your bank. If you have tried to import a file into Mobills and still have not succeeded, this article is for you.
First you must prepare the file:
The spreadsheet must be filled out starting from cell A1. Insert each topic in each column: DATA (cell A1) | DESCRIPTION (cell B1) | VALUE (cell C1) | ACCOUNT (cell D1) | CATEGORY (cell E1).
The date must follow the "dd / mm / yyyy" model and must be in text format. Be careful not to change the order or format it in any other way;
The description can be chosen as you wish, but avoid inserting long texts;
For incomes, amounts must be positive (no sign required). Ex .: Income: | 150.00 |;
For expenses, the values must be negative. Example Expense: | -150.00 |;
For credit card entries, only expenses are accepted. Chargebacks must be removed from the spreadsheet and manually inserted into the platform;
Use points only to separate the cents. Ex .: -1000.02;
If it is a number without decimal places, do not put a period or a comma to not give an error. Ex .: If you are going to register an expense of $25.00 dollars, use -25;
It is important that there are no formulas. So make sure that there are no formulas in your spreadsheet.
You can also edit your spreadsheet in Google Sheets. It's very simple!
Fill in the information correctly following the guidelines mentioned above;
Make sure that the date column is in plain text format. When in doubt, select the column >> Click Format >> Number >> Plain text;
Then you can download the file. click in File >> Download >> Microsoft Excel (.xlsx).
