Paper to digital
Move your tailor measurement book without losing a working day.
You do not need to type every customer before a digital book becomes useful. Move the records you actually use, one returning customer at a time.
Keep the old book while you begin
Your register remains a reference during the change. Do not throw it away or block out a weekend for data entry. Add the first new customer directly to the app, then add existing customers when they return.
A simple four-step switch
- Set your preferred unit and measurement fields before the next fitting.
- Add every new customer directly to the app.
- When a regular returns, confirm their current measurements instead of blindly copying an old page.
- Export a CSV backup periodically and keep the paper register until you no longer need to open it.
Record what the next fitting needs
Use clear field names, keep sewing allowance separate from body measurements, and write down fit preferences such as a loose waist or shorter sleeve. Attach the chosen style reference to the same profile instead of leaving it in a busy photo gallery.

What about handwritten pages?
Smart Import can turn a clear notebook photo into editable customer information when connected features are available. Always review extracted names and numbers before saving; AI should speed up entry, not make fitting decisions for you.
