How to Sync to Manually
Step 1: Export Data from My Hours
Start by logging into your My Hours account. Navigate to the section where you can access your data (such as reports or timesheets). Use the export feature to download the data you need. Typically, this will be in a CSV or Excel format. Save the exported file on your computer.
Step 2: Prepare Data for Transformation
Open the exported file using a spreadsheet application like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets. Review the data to ensure all necessary fields are present and correctly formatted. You may need to clean the data by removing any unnecessary columns or rows and correcting any formatting issues.
Step 3: Understand Convex Data Requirements
Familiarize yourself with the data import requirements for Convex. This typically involves understanding the format, field names, and data types that Convex expects. You can refer to any documentation or user manuals provided by Convex for this purpose.
Step 4: Map My Hours Data to Convex Format
Create a mapping between your My Hours data fields and the required Convex fields. This involves aligning the column names and data formats from your My Hours export to match what Convex uses. You might need to rename columns, change date formats, or convert time units to ensure compatibility.
Step 5: Transform and Validate Data
Using your spreadsheet application, carry out the necessary transformations based on your mapping. This might include formula-based calculations or manual adjustments to align with Convex's requirements. After transforming the data, validate it to ensure accuracy and completeness. Look for discrepancies or errors that need correction.
Step 6: Import Data into Convex
Log into your Convex account and navigate to the data import section. Follow the instructions provided by Convex to upload your prepared file. This usually involves selecting the file and confirming your mapping is correct. Initiate the import process and wait for it to complete.
Step 7: Verify and Reconcile Imported Data
After importing, verify that your data has been accurately transferred by comparing sample data in Convex with your original My Hours data. Check for any missing or misaligned data. If discrepancies are found, identify the cause and make necessary adjustments, then repeat the import process if needed.
By following these steps, you can manually transfer data from My Hours to Convex without relying on third-party connectors or integrations, ensuring precision and control over the data migration process.
