# How to move projects and estimates from spreadsheets to ArchiBoard

Many studios keep estimates in Excel or Google Sheets. Moving to ArchiBoard doesn't mean retyping data: estimates are imported from the file, suppliers are collected automatically, and receipts and invoices are uploaded in bulk.

1. **Create a project.** On the home page, click «New Project». Enter a name and city; the currency and delivery times depend on them.
2. **Import the estimate.** Open «Estimates» → «Import». Upload an Excel, CSV or PDF file or paste a Google Sheets link. The estimate's sections become the project's rooms.
3. **Upload receipts and invoices.** If payments have already been made, click «Receipts & quotes» and upload the folder with the documents. ArchiBoard matches them to estimate items.
4. **Check the suppliers.** Suppliers are added to «Suppliers» automatically when an item is saved from their website. Check the contacts and correct them if needed.

- Repeat the import for each project. It takes a few minutes.
- If an import goes wrong, you can undo it in «Activity feed» → «Undo import».
- To avoid copying new products by hand, install the web clipper.
