how to export an existing affiliatenetwork to Enterprise?

Is it possible to import an existing affiliate network into the Enterprise-plugin? The network has about 1500 registered members/users, customized rate levels set for 3 different groups of members/users, in 3 tiers for each group. Commissions are calculated and processed in COBOL and presented on the site in a php-file.
Or, what other plugin or solution would you suggest that will accomplish setting up the existing affiliatenetwork and connect it with the ability to add new affiliates and referrars, in the Enterprise-plugin?

    Hi Christer,

    We provide a free addon to help you import affiliates, Affiliates Import. You can import a file with a specific format as described in the documentation. After you export your affiliates from your current system and depending on the file format it produces, you might need to modify that file accordingly before importing.
    Regarding commission rates, Affiliates Enterprise uses Rates( under Affiliates > Rates ) system where you can easily set rates very flexibly. Rates system also utilizes Groups plugin where you can set a specific rate for a specific group of users.
    From my point of view, I think it’s better for you to work out how to export your affiliates from your current system and then we can check out how we can import them properly. Once you get an export file, you can send it to me at george@itthinx.com for further investigation.

    Kind regards,
    George
