Fix Garbled Text in Clock-In Record CSV Files
When a clock-in record CSV file is opened in Excel on Windows, Chinese text may appear garbled if Excel does not detect the file’s UTF-8 encoding correctly. Use either method below.
Method 1: Import the UTF-8 CSV in Excel
- Open Excel and create a blank workbook.
- Select
Data > Get Data > From File > From Text/CSV. Menu names may vary by Excel version. - Select the CSV file to import.
- If Excel displays a file-origin or encoding option, select
65001: Unicode (UTF-8)and confirm that the delimiter is a comma. - Confirm that the preview displays the text correctly, then select Load.
Method 2: Save the File as UTF-8 with BOM
- Open the CSV file in a text editor that supports encoding selection, such as Notepad++ or VS Code.
- Select Save As.
- Set the encoding to
UTF-8 with BOM, then save the file. - Reopen the saved file in Excel.
Avoid converting the file to ANSI or Big5 because unsupported characters may be lost or become garbled.
Unscheduled Clock-In Records (CSV)
Home > Management Mode > Clock-In Records > Export Clock-In Records > Unscheduled Clock-In Records (CSV)
