IMPORTING FILES

Importing files is a quick way of getting data from one system, possibly manipulating it with third party software and (re)importing into CONTROL.

The data MUST have

  • the columns in the correct sequence. Do NOT rearrange the column sequence.
  • the column headings

All columns with data in them will be assumed to match the columns defined below. All columns past the last column with actual data in the import file, will be given the currently defined "default value".To import the file you need to run: 

impXXmin "file_name"

  • where XX => dr/cr/st/ca/gl for debtors,creditors,stock,categories,general ledger

Running impXXmin -b "file_name" will blank fields if the field is equal to zero or blank

Running impstmin --qoh "file_name" is used in stock to import the quantity on hand field, otherwise it will be ignored

To get an empty copy of the import file, run 

expXXmin

and specify the desired filename for the spreadsheet. Make sure that the filename ends with ".csv".
