Hi,
I am using B1 version 9.1
I want to import multiple AR Invoices from a single Excel file, using DTW. I do not want to use the DTW templates, as they contain a lot of fields; and moreover, for a single invoice, we have to fill data in a lot of Excel files.
How can I create a simplified AR Invoice import template with only the required fields for a specific business scenario?
The admin department collects details of all the reimbursement expenses at month end, and prepares an Excel file, which needs to be imported into SAP.
Example:
| Invoice No. | Posting Date | Due Date | Document Date | BP Code | Invoice Type | Invoice Amt | GL Code | GL Name | Tax Code | Tax Amt | GL Amt (LC) |
| 1 | 15/10/2014 | 15/10/2014 | 15/10/2014 | C000001 | Service | 1500 | 625100 | Travel Reimbursement | NoTax | 0 | 1000 |
| 1 | 15/10/2014 | 15/10/2014 | 15/10/2014 | C000001 | Service | 1500 | 625200 | Food Expenses Reimbursement | NoTax | 0 | 500 |
| 2 | 16/10/2014 | 16/10/2014 | 16/10/2014 | C000002 | Service | 2000 | 625100 | Travel Reimbursement | NoTax | 0 | 1300 |
| 2 | 16/10/2014 | 16/10/2014 | 16/10/2014 | C000002 | Service | 2000 | 625200 | Food Expenses Reimbursement | NoTax | 0 | 400 |
| 2 | 16/10/2014 | 16/10/2014 | 16/10/2014 | C000002 | Service | 2000 | 625300 | Daily Allowance | NoTax | 0 | 300 |
Notice that Invoice No. 1 is spread across 2 rows, and Invoice No. 2 is spread across next 3 rows. The Document level fields are repeated in each row.
This single Excel file contains all required data for 2 invoices, including document level and line item level data.
How can I set it up? I do not want to use multiple Excel files for the different database tables involved in an AR Invoice transaction, as that will be very inconvenient for the end user.
A step by step example with screenshots will be helpful.
Thanks.
