Member Settings

The member settings screen allows you to customize many aspects of member management in your account, as well as perform bulk operations with your member data.

Member Import / Export

You can import member data from other software via a CSV file format. CSV is short for Comma-Separated-Values, and most spreadsheet or database applications can provide data in this format. The member import screen has more information on how to import member data.

Similarly, you can export your member data on Gymdesk into a CSV file, if you decide you want to close your account or just process the data in a spreadsheet application.
