Where to start

Imports → Review / More import options

Before you begin

Keep your original spreadsheet unchanged and edit a working copy.

RentRows imports screen with fictional example records; Imports → Review / More import options
Fictional example records. Select the screenshot to open it at full size. Your names, dates and balances will differ.

Follow the steps

  1. 01

    Read the row number and problem. Download the error list when several rows need attention.

  2. 02

    Check repeated unit labels, conflicting names, dates, amounts and payment references. A saved record with different details must be reviewed in the app first.

  3. 03

    Keep template headers unchanged. Paste values instead of formulas, remove totals/notes above the headers, and export CSV UTF-8 again.

  4. 04

    Upload and review again. Reviews expire after 30 minutes, so run a fresh review before saving an older preview.

  5. 05

    Use More import options for former tenancies, expenses or detailed records. Download that exact template and field guide; its reference columns must link to the correct saved/imported records.

  6. 06

    If an import was already committed, inspect its saved result before retrying. Exact matches are reused, but a changed reference can describe a different transaction.

Check the result

Only a valid reviewed file is committed, and you can explain every added record.

Keep going
