iBiz to MySQL

Description

iBiz was discontinued in 2013. This PHP script imports an iBiz directory into a MySQL database. The script is open source and has been tested on an iBiz directory containing a few thousand records.

The iBiz to MySQL script does the following:

  1. Creates a new database on your MySQL server
  2. Creates tables in that database named 'Customers', 'Invoices', 'JobEvents', 'JobEventsEstimates', and 'Projects'
  3. Imports iBiz clients into the 'Customers' table
  4. Reads in an Apple 'AddressBook.vcf' file, adding phone numbers, email addresses, and postal addresses to each customer
  5. Imports iBiz Projects into the 'Projects' table
  6. Imports JobEvents and JobEventsEstimates into their respectively named tables
  7. Imports Invoices into the 'Invoices' table
  8. That's it!
