In Sage 300 ERP, Every Organization, whether it is manufacturing or selling, needs to purchase products or services from suppliers, and you will typically be given the option to pay later. Businesses must effectively handle the trade payable since it is a significant source of cash outflows for which we can use Accounts Payable Module.

In this blog, we are going to discuss working of creating the AP Invoice entries using text file data. We will create a utility, that upon execution it will first read the data from the text file. Next, it will validate the data from the file. If any errors are present in the text file then it will create an error log which will have exact description of that error. We can send that error file to user via mail so that user can rectify those errors and can import file again for AP Invoice Entry creation. Once the data is validated successfully utility will then proceed further for the creation of the AP Invoice Entries.

New Stuff: – Creating GL Entries using Text File Data

The text file will contain mandatory fields that are required to create the AP Invoice batches. Those fields are Vendor No., Document Number, GL Account Number, Document Date, Amount, etc. User also can include other fields as well as Optional field data in the text file as well. Please refer below screen shot for the sample text file data which is used to create the AP Invoice entries.

Below is the text file which will be used for making batches in the AP: –

Figure 1: Text File Data for AP Import

After the successful execution of the utility the AP Invoice entry created in sage as follows (Please refer below screenshot).

Figure 2: AP Invoice Entry

In this way user can create AP Invoice Batches from the text file data which serves the purpose of this utility. One of the advantages of this utility is that we can also perform this functionality through task schedular as well so to optimize the manual labor.
