The finance import objects

Lesson 136 of 153 · 13 min

A tour of the import objects for each module — journals, payables invoices, receivables transactions, receipts, suppliers, customers, assets, bank statements. For two of them, open the template and walk the required versus optional columns. Then find the field documentation for any object, and read an error report from a failed import properly, including how to interpret the codes. The templates change between releases. Always download fresh; never reuse last project's file. A template that worked six months ago is the commonest cause of every row being rejected. And required fields are stricter than people expect. Map the source data against the template before writing any transformation — the mapping is where you discover that the legacy system never captured something the import demands, and that is a conversation, not a code change.
