It's possible to migrate excel data to koha including holdings and circulation data. Before that it is imp to know, how the data is organized in the excel file. Importing of bibliographic details is almost easy. But holding is very difficult. At first we should organize koha parameters and excel file  according to the needs.

Dear sir,

Your suggestions are indeed helpful. Thanking you
