Overview
Pull process data directly from the systems where it already lives. Import Data supports CSV, Excel, and structured exports from ERP systems like SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics. Map columns to VSM fields, set time units, and generate maps from real operational data. Ideal for processes where timing data is already captured in transactional systems but has never been visualised as a value stream.
Why Import Data?
Three reasons teams choose this tool
Skip Manual Entry
Drag and drop CSV or Excel files. Intelligent column mapping auto-detects your data structure and units.
Real Operational Data
Maps built from ERP and transactional data reflect actual performance, not estimates or averages.
Visualise the Invisible
Transaction logs contain rich process data that no one has ever visualised. Turn rows into value streams.
How It Works
Get started in four steps
Upload Your Data
Drag and drop CSV, Excel, or structured export files from your ERP or transactional system.
Map Columns
Intelligent auto-detection maps your columns to VSM fields. Adjust manually if needed.
Validate
Data validation highlights errors and inconsistencies before the import runs.
Generate Maps
Maps are generated from real operational data, complete with timing and resource information.

Smart Suggestions
The approval step at position 3 has a cycle time of 12.3 min with 67% wait time. Automating with rule-based approval could eliminate 80% of the wait.
Two consecutive inspection steps could be merged into a single quality gate, reducing handoff waste and duplicate setup time.
