    Hello Rita,

    In the financial period close configuration form in GL you have an Excel template called "Financial period close template tasks".

    Have you tried opening that one and used it for uploading your own tasks?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    The blank template was emailed to me and I added 339 tasks and now I need to know how I get it into 365.

    When I go into financial period configuration there is not a template called "financial period close template tasks.

    Hi Rita@D1 I never tried this import but can you not import the file in the "Financial period close template tasks" entity in "Data Management" ?

    Hi Rita,

    A good alternative is to use Data management with entity "Financial period close template tasks":

    Looks like the template is not loaded in our test environment. I will reach out to our project manager.

    Thanks for your help.

    You should be able to use the data entity mentioned above to import the tasks in Data management framework.  I've used this entity many times.  Unfortunately, it's the only data entity that exists for the Financial close configuration.  It would be very helpful to also have a data entity to import the Role assignment to tasks and companies.  That is a manual process and can be very tedious if you have a lot of different roles and/or companies.

    It was not loaded into our test environment. This why I could not access the template. Thanks for your assistance.

    Once the template is available, give it a try and let us know if this worked for you or whether you need additional help.

    Many thanks,

    Ludwig
