Stop retyping the same data into three systems

The problem

The same details entered in several systems

A customer enquiry arrives. Someone types it into the CRM, someone else into a spreadsheet, and parts of it go into the accounts package later. Every copy takes time and is another chance for a mistake.

  • Customer details typed into the CRM, then again into invoicing
  • Job completions updated by hand in several systems
  • Mistakes creeping in when numbers are copied under pressure
  • Skilled staff spending part of every week on copying

How it works

Enter data once and send it where it needs to go

1

We map your data flows

We record where the data starts, where it needs to go and what should trigger the move: a form, a status change, a new record or a set time.

2

We build the connections

Using Microsoft Power Automate, Make or Zapier, we connect your systems, including matching the fields and handling errors.

3

Data moves by itself

From then on, data moves between your systems without anyone retyping it.

4

You hear if something fails

If a transfer fails (a system is offline or a field format changes), you get a notification, so nothing is lost without anyone knowing.

Integrations

Systems we commonly connect

If your system has an API, a webhook or a standard export, it can usually be connected. These are the ones we work with most.

Microsoft Excel
SharePoint
Xero
QuickBooks
Sage
HubSpot
Salesforce
Monday.com
Airtable
Trello / Asana
Shopify
Google Sheets
Typeform / JotForm
Outlook / Gmail
Power Automate
Make (Integromat)

Where a business is already on Microsoft 365, the move between systems is usually built with Power Automate, which comes with the subscription. See Microsoft 365 automation.

Common questions

Data entry automation: answered

What is data entry automation?

It connects your business systems so information entered in one place appears in another without anyone copying it. Common examples are web enquiries going into your CRM, invoice details moving from your accounts package into a spreadsheet, and job completions updating your project tools.

Which systems can you connect?

Most common business tools: Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, HubSpot, Salesforce, Monday.com, Airtable, Shopify and most platforms with an API or webhook. If you are not sure about yours, ask and we will find out.

Is automated data entry accurate?

Once a connection is set up and tested, it copies exactly what is in the source system every time. It cannot correct a mistake typed in at the start, so checks can be added where the data matters.

What about data security?

The automation moves data between systems you already use. Which systems are connected, and what moves between them, is set out in the written scope before anything is built.

What if a system has no API?

Other routes are possible, such as reading emails, file imports or scheduled exports. If a connection is not possible, we will say so plainly.
