Posted on by 24
I want to import all purchase orders from excel, I have the file whith a few fields of the tables 38 and 39 with all the data, but when I import the file, too many dialog boxes appear for confirm the change of the vendor ?¿ and that I have changed the order date ?¿ 
 
I dont know where is the error, i have to press the "Y" button to bypass thousands of this dialog boxes, and at the end, the process si correctly done.
 
Is there a way to avoid this questions ? Or anyway to fix the excel file for bypassing this dialog boxes ? Two dialog boxes from each order
 
Products and vendors are in the system, attached little example

    Hi, As Jeffrey mentioned, you can disable validation by the following method.
    More details:
     
    But please note that there are certain risks. I personally think it is better to go through customization.
     
    Thanks

    Hi xLekOx,

    I assume you're using the Configuration Package feature. You can disable validation for all fields, allowing you to bypass the validation dialogs during the import process.

    If you find this useful, feel free to mark this as the suggested and verified answer.

    Cheers,
    Jeffrey

    If I ignore the validation on "order date", no problem... but if I ignore validation on "Buy from vendor" it doesnt take the information of the vendor: name, direction, etc... and it result in many erros, as expected.
     
    I only need to assume yes on prompt dialog.

    Hi, This requires customization to do, here are two simple examples, hopefully they will give you some hints.

    Hi
    These are standard validations. Have you tried importing via configuration packages and ignoring validations? Pay close attention to this point.

    The error happend when validating this two fields, Buy-from vendor(and order date), vendor exists and is valid, but it says that is "new information", is there a way to ignore this message ? if I said yes to all the errors the process is done well.
