Import Invoices File Layout
This file record layout is used to import a file to create invoice records.

Customer Number | 6 | Numeric | Required; must match a customer record in Accounts Receivable |
Requested By | 35 | Character | Required if Customer PO Number is blank |
Customer PO Number | 20 | Alphanumeric | Required if Requested By field is blank |
Date Requested | 8 | YYYYMMDD | Optional; can default to current date |

Unit of Issue | | | Optional, populated from list. |
Product Type | | | Optional, populated from product number. |

Notes:
If the Unit Price and Quantity are entered, the amount is not automatically calculated. The actual amount entered is displayed.
Uploaded files must be in the comma-delimited text (.txt) or comma-separated values (.csv) format.
A separate invoice record is created for each row of data in the file, and the Invoice Numbers are assigned in sequential order.
Commas may only be used in the file to separate data values, not within a field (e.g., (Invoice) Description field).
Decimal places are not implied for amounts (e.g., 6789 indicates $6,789.00 and 67.89 indicates $67.89). You can enter 11 numeric characters with two decimal places, or if using whole numbers, you can enter nine numeric characters.
Account codes are validated on the Finance > Maintenance > Create Chart of Accounts page.
