3. 'Process Sheet' + 'Create Products' - Ticking 'Create Products' and then 'Process Sheet' will actuctually import the Product Codes and other Stock Account fields.
*If a .csv file or Excel File has multiple Tabs / Sheet, once the Work Book is selected, 'Select Sheet' is used to specify the Tab / Sheet.
Further buttons within the ribbon of Stock Maintenance are associated with specific users and data formats, eg NAGS which requires associations / refurbishment, and propogate to entity functions.
- The column headers from NAGS do change from time to time and require editing for import.
- The actual import for NAGS is a three step process - Read the XLSX File, NAGS to BINStore and Aquire NAGS.
