Importing data from other systems into Kudocs
What data do I need to import into Kudocs? When you add an existing entity to Kudocs, Kudocs uses Companies House as the source data to create the account with current information. This includes:
- current and historic officers
- current and historic PSCs
- Charges
- Previous entity names
- Current shareholders and share capital.
Companies House does not store in its database (which Kudocs uses to create the account) any information about previous shareholders or share capital. Whilst previous confirmation statements and share capital filings are available as pdfs on the Companies House website, that data is not stored in their database. For more information on this, see here: https://www.kudocs.co.uk/faqs/full-and-quick-onboarding/
That is not a problem! If you have years of history (which Companies House does not store), you can drag and drop that information into Kudocs and it will create the registers for you. Kudocs just needs to be able to read that data digitally (so hand-written records might be a problem!).
Can I import data from other systems into Kudocs? Yes. You can import data fromPCSec and Diligent, with more integrations coming as well as an AI tool that will allow you to import data in your own format (ie not in a pre-defined structure).
How do I import data into Kudocs? We have had this feature available for a while in beta mode, but are now pleased to announce that you can import data from previous entity registers to recreate a company’s history. You still use Companies House as the source data to create the account with current information, but if you have years of history (which Companies House does not store), you can drag and drop that information into Kudocs and it will create the registers for you. You can still manually enter historic transactions if you want, but this can save massive amounts of time.
This feature is currently available for imports from PCSec and Diligent, with more integrations coming.
What about if I have data in my own format? Please contact us for more information or if you have data in another format that you would like import.
