Hello and welcome to Gibbon. Thanks for your positive feedback on our project. Please find attached here sample imports containing a single record each for library, user and student enrolment. I suggest you open and edit with either LibreOffice or a plain text editor…not Excel! The formatting needs to be just so. The guide below might help.

I’d also recommend you check out @ross’s excellent Data Admin module on our Extend page.

sorry but i did all of this and get this error
PREPARE DATABASE TABLES

The database was successfully locked.
FILE IMPORT

All students could be read and used, so the import will proceed.
ENROL ALL STUDENTS

There was an error enroling student: AdamMostafa Galal.
