A/P Invoice Import

This module requires additional licensing. Please contact your sales account manager for details.

Setup

Add the Supplier Vendor ID to the Supplier / Accounting screen

The Supplier Vendor ID is a 10-character alpha-numeric field which must match the VendorID on the incoming .csv file exactly.

Reporting

For a listing of all Suppliers and their Vendor IDs, we have added the Vendor ID as a Suppliers selection criteria in the Database Listing program

You may also select "VendorID" as a merge field to export from the Database Listing program, so that you can print a listing of suppliers and their Vendor ID’s in either Word or Excel

Import File

To make it easy to create a file, you can key the invoices in to Excel. The "BuildingID" Column will need to be formatted to be a text column.

Note: If you have building ID’s that start with a zero (0), Excel will drop the leading zero if this is not a Text column.

Once you have keyed in the invoices, you will need to save-as a .csv (Comma Delimited)

Procedure

1. Go to Supplier – Invoices – Supplier Invoices Batch Entry. Click on the "Import A/P Invoice Batch" button to import your batch of invoices.

Troubleshooting

- All invoices must have all fields completed.

- If any fields are missing, you may use NotePad to edit the .csv file.

- If you use Excel to edit the file, you will have to save changes as .csv again, and run the File Import Utility on the new file.
