Import from Timely

Export your clients and history from Timely as CSV, then match the columns to Youzse fields yourself at the Mapping step.

3 min readUpdated

You can move from Timely to Youzse with a CSV export. Timely is not one of the platforms whose column names Youzse recognises on sight, so you match the columns yourself at the Mapping step, which takes a couple of minutes per file.

Exporting from Timely

Sign in at gettimely.com.

  1. 1Open Reports.
  2. 2Run the client list report and export as CSV.
  3. 3Run the appointment report across your full history and export.
  4. 4Export your service list from the services area.

Save each export as CSV. If it arrives as an Excel file, open it and use Save as to produce a CSV, because the importer accepts CSV only.

Mapping a Timely export

Name the files clearly, something like clients.csv and appointments.csv, because the record type is worked out partly from the filename. Then map the essentials and leave the rest unmapped.

  • For customers: first name, last name, email and phone. Everything else is a bonus
  • For appointments: start date and time, service name, customer name, staff name and status
  • For services: name, duration in minutes and price

If your file has one full name column, map it to the full name field rather than splitting it yourself. If date and time sit in separate columns, combine them into one column in your spreadsheet before uploading.

What will not come across

  • Saved card details, which no platform can transfer
  • Photos and attachments
  • Loyalty balances and package credits
  • Staff logins, because staff are invited to set their own password

Common questions

Does Timely export everything at once?

No, it is report by report. Export clients, appointments and services separately, then upload all three files.

Do consultation forms come across?

No. Rebuild them under Services & Booking, then Forms, which also lets customers complete them before they arrive.

Services & Booking, then Forms. Consultation and consent forms you can attach to a service.
