Configuration Package Field Filtering

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 907

I have an Excel Spreadsheet containing 3 Customer records. Two have a Currency Code of GBP and one has EUR. I'm trying to create a configuration package to only import the two that have a currency code of GBP and bypass the EUR one. So I went in to Edit - Config. Pagkage Filters and selected Field ID: 22 Field Name: Currency Code and I've tried various values in the Field Filter column:
GBP,
=GBP,
='GBP'
"GBP"
="GBP"

... None of these work. All 3 records are being imported when I only want two. What am I doing wrong?

I have the same question (0)

    Nick,

    I'm not sure the filtering is used during the import process.  Since Configuration Packages can be used to Export Data as well, that is where I use the filters to minimize the data exported from the package.

    I would break your Excel Data into different files.  While this can be time consuming when only dealing with 3 records, it is generally the safer practice when dealing with a large number of records.
