ImageDirector Import/Multiple vendor format Reports

This import has two printable reports - Import Vouchers report and Import Voucher Exceptions Report. Only one report will print based on if there were exceptions or not.

Import Vouchers Report - Shows all records that were/will be processed from the file. All fields (purchase order number, account number, project job, invoice amount) that contain invalid values will be indicated with an asterisk.

This report indicates that the file was/can be processed regardless of any invalid values.

Import Voucher Exceptions Report - This report will print if one or more vendors could not be located from the file. If this report prints, the import was not successful and no records were imported. Users must fix any exceptions from this report before proceeding with the import.

ImageDirector ImportMultiple vendor format file layout

The ImageDirector/Multiple vendor import file is in a csv format. The filename text will be updated with a preceding "ProcessedOnMMddyyyyhhmmss_" once the file has been successfully processed to help prevent accidental duplicate processing.
