Bring the register.
Leave the data entry.
The reason operators stay on paper is not loyalty, it is the fear of a two-week typing job. Import takes what you already have, in whatever shape it is in, and tells you what needs a second look.
Three ways in, none of them clean
We have yet to see a tidy subscriber list. Import expects mixed column names, merged cells, amounts written in words and names spelled three ways.
Excel or CSV
Any column order. We detect name, mobile, plan, amount, due date, address or lane, and set-top box or router serial wherever they appear, and show you the mapping before anything is saved.
- .xlsx, .xls and .csv
- Multiple sheets, one per area, read together
- Hindi or regional column headings understood
Photographs of register pages
Shoot the pages in daylight, upload them in order, and the rows are read out and put in front of you for confirmation. This is the usual route for operators who never kept a soft copy.
- Ruled registers and handwritten ledgers
- Row by row confirmation before saving
- Pages kept against the import for reference
Export from existing software
Most billing tools can export a subscriber CSV. If yours can, that is the cleanest start, because plans and due dates usually come across intact.
- Subscriber master, plan master and dues
- Outstanding balances carried forward
- Old invoice numbers kept as a reference field
Fix the five that matter, ignore the rest
You do not need a perfect list to start collecting. The checklist is ordered by what actually blocks money, so an operator can go live with the first two done and come back to the others later.
- Walkthrough in Hindi or English, screen shared, with your own list open.
- We sit through the first reminder run with you rather than sending a PDF guide.
- If the import reads badly, we fix the mapping from our side before you touch a row.
About moving across
How long does an import actually take?
A clean Excel sheet of a thousand names is read in a few minutes, and the review is the slow part - usually under an hour. Register photographs take longer because every row is confirmed by you before it is saved.
Can I run Exrecharge alongside my old system for a month?
Yes, and plenty of operators do. Use Exrecharge for reminders and collection while invoicing stays where it is, then move invoicing across once you trust the figures.
What if my register has outstanding balances from previous months?
Bring them in as opening balances against each connection. Reminders then show the full outstanding figure rather than just this month's amount.
Can I get my data back out?
At any time, in full, as a spreadsheet - subscribers, plans, payments and invoices. The list is yours and there is no exit charge for taking it.
Where to look after this
Let the street
do the chasing.
Import your list this week and the 25th run goes out on its own. Most operators are live on the same day they upload, because the register is the only thing we need from you.
