How to integrate Google Drive with Rakuraku Meisai to download form data from Google Drive and import it in bulk as a CSV into Rakuraku Meisai

t.aizawa

For companies and teams aiming to improve operational efficiency and data management accuracy, integrating Google Drive with Rakuraku Meisai can be beneficial.
Handling large volumes of form data manually can waste time and effort and increase the likelihood of errors. However, by bulk importing data in CSV format from Google Drive, operational efficiency is expected to improve.
This article introduces the benefits of this integration and how to implement it with specific examples.

Recommended for

・Accounting personnel handling large volumes of invoice and form data
・Companies that use Google Drive regularly
・Managers and accounting personnel looking to reduce working hours and streamline workflows

Benefits and Examples of Integrating Google Drive with Rakuraku Meisai

Benefit 1: Unification of Operations through System Integration

By integrating Google Drive with Rakuraku Meisai, data exchange between the two systems becomes smooth.
For example, by extracting payment details or invoice data stored in Google Drive in CSV format and importing it into Rakuraku Meisai, data is automatically integrated between the systems. This ensures seamless data integration between systems, consistent progress of operations, and timely updates of information. Additionally, since Google Drive can be shared with multiple users, the entire team can work while checking the data, facilitating smooth communication.
In this way, integrating different systems can improve efficiency and streamline the overall workflow.

Benefit 2: Reduction of Errors from Manual Input

Manual input is prone to errors, but integrating Google Drive with Rakuraku Meisai can reduce this risk.
For instance, when manually entering large volumes of transaction information or billing details each month, there is a possibility of accidentally inputting incorrect numbers or missing data. However, by bulk importing CSV data from Google Drive, such human errors can be prevented. Additionally, even with large volumes of data, the ability to reliably and accurately reflect data in Rakuraku Meisai is a significant advantage.
Thus, improving data accuracy can prevent future issues, enhancing the reliability of operations.

Benefit 3: Reduction of Working Time

By integrating Google Drive with Rakuraku Meisai and using the CSV import feature, you can reduce the time spent on monthly data entry tasks.
For example, manually entering data from Google Drive and reflecting it in Rakuraku Meisai could take several hours, but using CSV for bulk import can complete the task in minutes. This allows for the automation of previously manual processes, leading to a reduction in working time.
The saved time can be allocated to other important tasks, improving overall operational efficiency.
