Extract journalnums listed in Excel column

Posted on by 1,858

Hi,

Let's say I have 100 journalnums in an Excel file and I want journal entries of these journalnums (specific columns from the 2 above tables) from ledgerjournaltable and ledgerjournaltrans.

What's the best way to implement it? Shall I implement it as a report or form?

How Can I give file input in report dialog box?

    Hi MyGz,

    There are so many options for implementing this...

    a. Read file and then show data in report

    b. Read file and then show data in form

    c. read file and use SQL

    d. leverage reporting tools etc...

    So you have to determine what make sense.. based on what you are trying to do...below make more sense as this allow you to download data and then cross verify in different ways with other systems etc..

    a. Read data from a file that will give you all journal names

    b. Based on data that you have read, get all the data from LedgerJournalTable and LedgerJournalTrans

    c. Write data back to another file

    d. Use the exported file to do comparisons etc.

    The link below will help you on reading data.

    Once you read data from file above.. then iterate through data in LedgerJournalTable/Trans table and write data to csv file.

    How to load the file..use link below:

    These tasks can be accomplished in a single request from user..  user upload file and get prompted to save the file with results.

    The purpose is to cross verify those journals against corresponding entries with another system. These journals are created during integration process between 2 systems.

    Hi, Do you want to export and analyze those data or do something else? What is the purpose of doing this? Best regards, Ludwig
