Import Footfall Data
This guide explains how to import historical or external footfall data from a CSV file into a selected Vemcount location.
Use Footfall Data Manager to import historical or external footfall data from a CSV file into a selected Vemcount location.
Before importing, prepare the CSV so the data is clean and easy to map. A well-structured file makes validation easier and reduces the risk of mapping errors during import.
Preparation point | What to check |
Date and time | Use a consistent date/time format where possible. |
In and Out values | Keep count-in and count-out in separate columns. |
Cell content | Avoid missing cells and avoid mixing labels with numbers in the same cell. |
Minimal structure | A clean file with only the needed columns is easier to map and validate. |
