Dialog Box Fields

Field Description
Import File

Enter the name and location of the file you wish to use as your import file.

Browse

Use the Browse button to the right of the Import File field to browse your computer until you find the file you wish to use as your import file.

Bill Currency

This field displays the bill currency (currency in which the credit card file is received) of the batch type. Use this information to determine which exchange rate to enter in Exchange Rate to (System Base currency).

Exchange Rate to (System Base Currency)

If the pay currency of the expense batch type equals the system's base currency, this field displays a default value of 1.0 and is disabled.

If the pay currency is not the same as the base currency, you can override the default value by entering the exchange rate that should be used when you import the expense amount. This is necessary if the expense was incurred, and should therefore be reimbursed, in a currency other than the system's base currency.

Import

Click Import to start the import process. If you have not supplied an import file, the system displays an error message.

If an error occurs during the import, the Import Errors dialog box displays.
