Import Utility...

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

In the past I have used the free import utility to add inventory to my database.  

Over the past couple of days I have built a flat file for 500 items with all of the appropriate fields populated and correctly mapped in the import utility (tab delimited).  It fails to properly import into the database.  I am running CU5 plus a couple of hot fixes after that release (i think 2.2007).

I am guessing that the structure of the database has changed to the point that the import utility no longer works?  I have test systems running sql2005 and 2008, the import does not work with either setup.  Does anyone know of a workaround?  Should I not import certain fields?  Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

    Sleep helps....  Done this a 100 times, never had a problem in the past.  Automatically assumed it was because of the database update...  Not so...  Reversed mapping in the flat file (cost and ILC swapped).

    All is well now.
