Let’s take an example of importing customer records using excel file format.
As a first step you have prepare the excel file in a format as required by customer import template. This file consists of all the desired customer records which you want to import.
New Stuff: AP Vendor Ledger Report for Sage 300 ERP
Then you select this file under customer import program (A/R Customers >> File >> Import…). During the process you encounter the following error.
You will further notice that the Status is Import not ready
The possible cause of the error is due to worksheet name.
Import program reads each worksheet in excel file as Table. It expects the table name to be same as displayed.
