We now offer the ability to import your capital transactions into your account if you purchase the Classic, Premium, or Self-Employed package! You will need to download our .CSV file and make some adjustments to upload your transactions.
Our .csv file will allow you to upload:
- Owner
- Description
- No special characters.
- Must be between 3 and 30 characters.
- Date Acquired
- Date Sold
- Sales Price
- Cost
