    We used the AS400 iSeries until the change to GP, prior to the cutover, we ran parallel, and what we did was use a DTS to move info from the AS400 to SQL.

    Hi RANCDV,

    GP cannot integrate as400 file or any custom file apart from GP predefined files mentioned above by experts.

    what my suggestion is:

    using VS tools, you can define\create a custom window & through .net code you can read the as400 file values to grid and you can integrate those files through eConnect schema.

    Note: eConnect to be installed in your machine

    Client Access 400 can create Excel file and GP Integration Manager can import Excel file into GP

    Okay, but why recreate the wheel when it already exists?

    You need to look at Scribe or Smart Connect from eOne.  Both those tools could integrate your file with automation.

    thank you for replying . I currently have a pgm that creates a flat file that i FTP to my pc, i then use the integration manger to push the file into GP. What i want to is reduce the steps and if possible use the integration to retrieve the file from the as400 and make the integration into GP a one step process.
