From the drop-down list, select your input source:
ASCII File (fixed length)
Tables—The Tables setting uses three database tables for importing vouchers. The tables correspond to the three parts of a voucher: header, expense lines, and labor. The columns in the Input File layout are also in the tables. There are two additional columns:
Record Number (REC_NO) — Used as the primary key. You should make sure that it is unique when populating the tables with data.
Status Code (S_STATUS_CD) — Used to identify rows that have not been processed, are in error, or have been imported.
The tables are:
Table |
Contains Information to be Imported for the: |
AOPUTLAP_INP_HDR |
Header-type record |
AOPUTLAP_INP_DETL |
Detail-type record |
AOPUTLAP_INP_LAB |
Labor-type record |
Click Select to see a list of files from which you can select an Input File, or enter the name of the file to be processed in the field to the right.
Select the fiscal year, period, and subperiod to use as defaults. These settings will not override values in the Input File, but will be used if the fiscal year, period, and/or subperiod in the Input File are blank.
Select one of the following three methods for numbering vouchers:
Select this option to use the voucher numbers provided in the Input File when importing vouchers to Costpoint tables. This is the default.
Select this option to assign unique voucher numbers sequentially when importing to the Costpoint tables. Costpoint uses the Last System Voucher Number from the A/P Voucher Settings screen in Costpoint Accounts Payable to determine the next voucher number.
Select this option to enter a beginning voucher number (up to nine digits) in the data field directly below this option. Unique voucher numbers are assigned sequentially when you import, starting with the beginning voucher number you enter.
For this group box to be active, you must select Tables as the setting for the Select Input option. The three options in this group box work only when you select the Process Input File button on the toolbar.
Select this option to process rows having a status (S_STATUS_CD) of U from the input tables. The rows are selected from the Header, Detail, and Labor tables.
Records that pass validation and records that fail validation are loaded into separate temporary tables; this is the same procedure for processing Input Files. The status code (S_STATUS_CD) column is then updated to E (Error) in all the input tables for the corresponding records that contain errors.
When you select the Import Vouchers button on the toolbar, all the records that passed validation are inserted into the base tables (VCHR_HDR, VCHR_LN, VCHR_LN_ACCT, and VCHR_LAB_VEND). The Status Code column is then updated with an I (Imported) to show that these rows have been successfully imported.
Select this option to re-process rows from the input tables having a status (S_STATUS_CD) of E (Error).
Select this option to delete rows from the input tables having a status (S_STATUS_CD) of I (Imported). Costpoint deletes records from the Header (AOPUTLAP_INP_HDR), Detail (AOPUTLAP_INP_DETL), and Labor (AOPUTLAP_INP_LAB) input tables.
Select this check box to expand the Account, Org, Project, Reference Number 1, and Reference Number 2 fields in the Input File when processing.
If you select this check box, Costpoint pads any segment of the affected fields that is shorter than the specified length for that segment:
If the value is numeric, Costpoint pads the segment with zeroes on the left.
If the value is alphanumeric, Costpoint pads the segment with spaces on the right.
Select this option in the Process menu to read the Input File, create temporary tables, validate records, and print the Error Report.
Click this button on the toolbar (or the option in the Process menu) to import the rows from the temporary tables (created by the process) into the Voucher Header, Voucher Line, and Voucher Line Account tables.
You name the Input File. The Error File has the same name with an extension of .ERR and will have the same layout as the Input File.
The Input File must be a fixed format file. You must fill every position with either an appropriate character or space. It is not necessary to zero-fill numbers; you can use spaces to maintain the proper format. Numeric fields must be right-justified and character fields must be left-justified. You do not have to fill the Notes fields with spaces, but every record must end with a carriage return and line feed.
A record in the Input File must be in one of three formats: Header, Detail, or Vendor Labor. Each voucher Header record must have at least one matching voucher Detail record in the Input File. Vendor Labor records are optional. Each Vendor Labor record must match with a Detail record in the Input File.

Costpoint checks the voucher temporary tables to ensure that all rows are imported. If any rows have not been imported, Costpoint displays a message and you can continue or cancel the process. If you continue, the temporary tables will be cleared.
Costpoint reads records from the Input File and inserts them into the temporary tables.
Costpoint applies defaults to fields that are blank in the Input File and that have a "default provided" status.
Validations are performed.
Once the validations are completed, vouchers with errors are written to the error file. If there is an error on one line of a voucher (header, detail, or vendor labor), Costpoint rejects all lines of the voucher and writes them to the error file. It then deletes these rows from the temporary tables. The temporary tables now have only valid rows in them.
Costpoint performs field processing and calculations.
The Error Report prints. If there are errors, Costpoint displays a message on the screen. If there are no errors, the Error Report indicates that no records were found.
When Costpoint uses the voucher numbers from the Input File, the Voucher Header and Voucher Header History are checked again to ensure that the vouchers being imported do not already exist. If duplicates do exist, Costpoint displays a message and will not perform the import.
When Costpoint assigns voucher numbers, all vouchers in the temporary tables are assigned new and unique voucher numbers.
Costpoint sets the Voucher Key, Voucher Line Key, Voucher Line Account Key, and Voucher Line Vendor Key.
Costpoint inserts rows from the temporary tables into the Voucher Header, Voucher Line, Voucher Line Account, and Voucher Labor Vendor tables.
Costpoint clears the temporary tables to prevent duplicate uploads.
The Voucher Header table is filled as follows:
