    Which version? Suspect it is custom. What pops up when you select it? If it’s any good as a new feature, as a minimum it should be data exchange definition driven.

    when I select it - I can choose a csv file.

    Marcella,

    That option is not with my standard US, CA, or GB version. Seems like a customization. Look under Extensions to see if you have something called Excel Import. I know there is an APP out there.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    This is a more configurable option: joshanglesea.wordpress.com/.../

    If it just lets you choose a csv then you would need the source code to check what format/fields it is expecting

    Hi, BC19 Preview W1 version also does not have this function. It should be customization.

    If you can find the source code, there may be a clue to the CSV template in there.

    Hi,

    A similar feature is Edit-in-Excel, which allows you to import many rows in Excel into BC.

    Thank,

    Hi,

    You can find this in US BC18.5 for example when you use the Accountant or the Business Manager role center.
    This function is supposed to be used for importing the G/L transactions from your payroll service provider.
    When you use this function in CRONUS you get the following selection:

                     pastedimage1631685079542v1.png

    In other local versions, like DK, you can find a set up in the General Ledger Setup page

                     pastedimage1631685347873v2.png

    And yes, in the Data Exchange Defnitions there is  option field Type with an option "Payroll Import".
    This concept is used within the DK DB.

    Dirk,

    I learned something new today as I have never used the Payroll Service functionality.

    Thanks,

    Steve
