Visma eEkonomi Pro
Import accounting data (SI or SE file)
Files with the extension .si contain individual journal entries and are used e.g. when you want to transfer journal entries from a payroll program or accounting program to Visma eEkonomi Pro.
When importing to Visma eEkonomi Pro, only cost centres defined as #DIM1 will be handled. The cost centre is linked to Group 1 and all cost units defined as #OBJEKT 1 are imported into Group 1.
To summarise, only the import of #DIM1 for cost centres and #DIM6 for projects is supported in Visma eEkonomi Pro.
- Create a file in the program you want to import the file from.
- Select Settings - Import and export.
- Select Accounting data SIE import and export.
- Select New import
- Follow the steps of the guide to carry out the import.
You can also import SIE1 files to Visma eEkonomi Pro. A SIE1 file is used to import opening balances to a new financial year. Read more in the topic Financial year and OB settings.
We no longer support the import of the chart of accounts BAS96.
Ledger account change during SIE import
When you perform a SIE import from another program, there may be ledger accounts in the SIE file that cannot be used in Visma eEkonomi Pro, as these are used in automatic accounting. To be able to import journal entries from such ledger accounts, the balances of the accounts must be moved to other accounts in Visma eEkonomi Pro. The move is done with the BAS chart of accounts' groupings.
Changes are made when the SIE file contains complete information, i.e., information about financial year, chart of accounts, opening balance, and journal entries. Accounts change as follows: 1510 becomes 1518, 2440 becomes 2448, all accounts starting with 191X become 1910. There'll be no changes when the SIE file only contains journal entries.
Please note that Visma eEkonomi Pro does not support account group 9 (9xxx). If your data includes accounts from account group 9 you need to move those journal entries to a different account group before you export them. The accounts in account group 9 can then be deleted from the file by opening the file in Notepad and then deleting them. If the file includes account group 9 the file cannot be imported to Visma eEkonomi Pro.
