Migrating
Moving on without losing the history.
You have years of recipes, a supplier list and a shelf of numbers. Here is exactly what comes across, what does not, and what we do about the difference.
What imports
Bring it in from CSV.
The things you have most of, and would least like to retype.
Recipes
Your recipe book comes across as CSV, with ingredient bills attached and batch sizes set on arrival.
Brew worksheets
Existing brew sheets import against batches, so past brews keep their measurements instead of becoming a filing cabinet.
Purchase orders
Bulk-import open and historical POs rather than raising each one again by hand.
Ingredients
Your materials map onto a shared master catalog, so lots are described consistently from the first receipt onward.
What does not
Some things are worth counting once.
We would rather tell you this now than halfway through a migration.
Opening stock
Raw materials and finished goods start from a count you take on the day. Every number after that is calculated, but the first one is yours.
Beer already in tank
Work in progress is entered as it stands — vessel, volume, and where it is in the process — so the cellar view is true from day one.
Account history
Customers and pricing come across. Years of past invoices generally stay in the system that raised them, and your accountant keeps that record.
And back out again
Nothing is held hostage.
Everything in ClearBeer leaves as CSV whenever you want it. The reason to stay should be that it works, not that leaving is expensive.
