Import
Use this command to transfer (import) data from non-Sage ERP Accpac programs to Inventory Control.
For example, you could use a spreadsheet program to create price lists for items, then import the price lists into Inventory Control.
To import data, follow these general steps:
-
Create the file you want to import. For information on the file formats and file layouts that Sage Accpac accepts, search the online help for Importing and Exporting Inventory Control Records. (You can create an import file template by exporting a few records of the type you want to import.)
-
Open the appropriate Inventory Control form for the type of data you want to import. For example, to import receipt transactions, open the Receipts form.
-
Choose the Import command from the File menu.
-
Specify the file name and file type in the import form that appears next.
-
If you previously created a template for importing, choose the Load Script button.
-
Choose the fields that you are importing. (You can save your choices as another template by clicking Save Script for the next time you import records.)
