  • 1.  Is it possible to build into a VI import job a selection parameter to select records from a source file by company code?

    Posted 07-12-2019 12:31

    We have a client with multiple companies.  We are investigating building import jobs into Transaction JE Header and General JE Header.  The data for each job would be a CSV file containing records from multiple companies.  One column would contain the company code.  The provider (ManageAmerica) would like to provide a single file with records for all companies.  I'm envisioning using a Temp field with a runtime assign to gather the company code, but can I have the job only select records for that company code?

    I have looked into something similar in the past... It has always aggravated me that 'Perform' logic is not included as an option in Record Selection... I think it would be perfect here... comparing ss'CompanyCode$ to one of your import columns to accept or reject each record. Seems like a perfect solution for a 'Perform' script...


    Sadly, I have generally ended up simply splitting the CSV into separate files one per company code...  If there is a better answer, I too would be interested...

    This post should help.
    I have created a VI job to import a journal entry. I have a customer who wants to have one source ...
