Import

Use this command to transfer (import) data from non-Sage ERP Accpac programs to Order Entry.

For example, you could use a spreadsheet program to create miscellaneous charges for orders, then import the miscellaneous charges into Order Entry.

To import data, follow these general steps

1. Create the file you want to import. (You can create an import file template by exporting a few records of the type you want to import.)

2. Open the appropriate Order Entry window for the type of data you want to import. For example, to import orders, open the Orders and Invoices window.

3. Choose the Import command from the File menu.

4. Specify the file name and file type in the form that appears next.

If you previously created a template for importing, choose the Load Template button.

5. Choose the fields that you are importing. (You can save your choices as a template for the next time you import records.)

Note that you cannot import serial or lot numbers for kit components.
