Data sources are the foundation for dashboards and AI reports. As an administrator, you can upload financial data as a file or retrieve it automatically via the DATEV interface.

Upload a file

  1. Click “Data sources” in the sidebar
  2. Select a company from the dropdown
  3. Select the accounting source: DATEV MVZ Export, BMD Export, or Other
  4. Drag and drop the file into the upload field, or click to select a file
  5. Supported formats: CSV, XLSX, XLS, XML, TXT

Process DATEV files automatically

If you select “DATEV MVZ Export” as the accounting source, the uploaded CSV file is processed automatically:
  • The DATEV CSV is converted into a structured Excel file
  • A progress bar shows the processing progress
  • The processed file is then available for dashboards and reports

View data sources

Below the upload area, you see a list of all data sources for the selected company. This list contains both uploaded files and data retrieved via the DATEV interface.
