Document Explorer: Importing a CSV-file

If you or your client records their tax return in a spreadsheet you can import individual items into the Record Keeping section. If your client prefers not to connect a bank feed you can also import bank statements directly.

CSV-file checklist

  • Save the spreadsheet as CSV-file, this is possible from most devices

  • Ensure all cells are formatted as text

  • Ensure no rows are empty

  • Delete any ‘Total’ rows or rows where the transaction value is ‘0’

How to import

  • Go to Record Keeping and select Import Document

  • Select Upload new document and Import

  • Select the transaction source from the dropdown

  • Select Choose File to upload your CSV, then click Continue

  • Map the fields by matching your file headers to APARI column headers

  • Select Import to finalise the upload

The data will be added to your unassigned transactions.


NOTE: from the Document Explorer page/dashboard, you can also preview, download and delete documents.
