Using PHPExcel to export Excel to MySql

Question

I've found information on how to export data from MySQL to Excel, but not upside down, from Excel to MySQL.

Also, I'm asking using PHPExcel because a friend suggested to do it with it, but if there is an easiest way to do it, it's welcome.

I know I can export from excel to MySql (with static field) using following syntax:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '\\path' INTO TABLE test FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'

But not all Excel fields will be imported into MySQL or in the same order.

This is the table structure that I have:

CREATE TABLE cliente (
  clienteId int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  clienteIdentidadTipo varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
  clienteIdEntidadNumero varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
  clienteNombres varchar(100) DEFAULT NULL,

  UNIQUE KEY clienteId_UNIQUE (clienteId),
  KEY fk_cliente_ciudad_idx (clienteCiudadId),
  KEY fk_cliente_empresa1_idx (clienteEmpresaId),
  KEY fk_cliente_grupo1_idx (clienteGrupoId),

  CONSTRAINT fk_cliente_plan1 FOREIGN KEY (planId) REFERENCES plan (planId) ON DELETE NO ACTION ON UPDATE NO ACTION
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

And this is the Excel file that I want to import into the database:

This will probably help: Import an excel file into a MySQL table with PHPExcel

Also, in the future, most of the questions you will have with programming have already been answered. So you can usually find the answer in 1-2 google searches.
