Importer

A data migration tool that brings a hospital's existing Excel payroll records into Hereby in a single pass during onboarding. It is run by the operator who handles initial setup.

Who uses it

• Platform operations / onboarding staff setting up a new hospital

What you can do

• Move a hospital's payroll Excel workbook (47 sheets) into Hereby in one pass.
• Migrate employee details, employee numbers, and team structure.
• Import the payroll ledger and salary grade scheme.
• Bring over allowance and deduction items and fixed incentive records.
• Migrate overtime, education subsidy, year-end settlement, and resignation settlement data.
• Import only the records you need, or move everything at once.

How it works

This is a CLI tool run once during onboarding. It reads every sheet in the Excel workbook, settles employee numbers and the payroll ledger first, then moves the remaining data category by category. If the target hospital (organization) does not yet exist, it is created automatically as part of the import.
