This article walks through migrating from Manage Comics Classic to Oryx: export customers and subscriptions from Classic, then upload each into Oryx through Settings.
Step 1 — Export customers from Classic
In Classic, click All Customers.
Click MC 2.0 Export.
Save the file to your Desktop.
Step 2 — Export subscriptions from Classic
In Classic, go to Pull Lists → Customer Pull Lists.
Click MC 2.0 Export.
Save the file to your Desktop.
Step 3 — Import customers into Oryx
In Oryx, go to Settings → Import Customers.
Choose the Type of Manage Comics.
Drag your customer file into the file area.
Click Upload.
You will get a confirmation file you can download and review.
Step 4 — Import subscriptions into Oryx
In Oryx, go to Settings → Import Subscriptions.
Choose the Type of Manage Comics.
Drag your subscriptions file into the file area.
Click Upload.
You will get a confirmation file you can download and review.
Step 5 — Review customer lists
Go to Customers → Customer Lists to confirm everything came over correctly. Spot-check a handful of customers and confirm their subscription lists match what was in Classic.
Preparing your files
Before uploading, open each export file in a CSV-safe editor (see How to Safely Open a CSV in Excel) and:
Confirm email uniqueness. Oryx does not allow duplicate customer emails.
Normalize phone numbers to 10 digits.
Confirm series titles in the subscriptions file match how the series appears in Oryx. Title mismatches become "unknown series" errors that have to be resolved row by row.
Oryx-specific notes
Multi-location shops: after import, assign customers to their home locations (see Enabling and Managing Multi-Location).
POS integration: subscription data is now in Oryx, but in-store customer records stay in your POS. See RMH Integration Overview or Exporting Data from ComicSuite.
