# Importing Chart of Accounts from Xero

* Export your existing COA from Xero 
* Format it to only include *Code, Name, Type, and Description.*  \
  An example template can be found [HERE](https://app.hq.xyz/file/chart-of-accounts.csv)
* Navigate to your Gnosis Business Dashboard's Chart of Accounts Page 
* Select the “Add New” button at the top right of the page and select “Import.CSV”
* Select the “Create” button
* Choose to import the entire list, or select individual Accounts. Then, confirm your selection
* The new Accounts will now show in your Chart of Accounts list and can be searched for by Name or Code

💡 Tip: Importing a custom Chart of Account will remove your current list to prevent duplicate accounts. Ensure your CSV contains your full COA before importing.
