New World Scheduler supports Importing and Exporting data into a variety of common file formats.
We believe your congregation and person data is your own, and you should be able to Import and Export your data as you wish. We also believe that as true Christians, it is both reasonable and right to allow data exchange between other JW scheduling programs.
New World Scheduler can import the following from TSWin:
Import Congregation and ALL data from TSWin (recommended)
- Note: If you have already created a New World Scheduler Congregation, we recommend you first Delete the congregation before importing from TSWin. Otherwise, please see Import Persons and Publisher Records from TSWin.
