You can use Accredo GL Batch format or IMS Payroll Partner format to import Transaction Batches.

Import Type

Select the format to be imported from:

  • Accredo GL Batch
  • IMS Payroll Partner

File Name

Specify the name and path of the file to import, or click Select File (F2).

Branch

The default Branch to use if an import line does not contain a Branch. This can be left blank. (Accredo Saturn Only)

 

Department

The default Department to use if an import line does not contain a Department. This can be left blank. (Accredo Saturn Only)

 

For more information on the Accredo Standard GL Batch Format, with an example GL Batch File, see GL Export Batch.

Period for Posting may be specified in the import batch as 1-12 (1 being the first period in the current year relative to GL Current Period). If Period for Posting is empty or zero in the import batch then the Period for Posting is derived from the latest date seen in the imported batch lines, falling back to current period GL if period for date is not found. Regardless, the Period for the batch may be edited after importing and before posting the batch.

For batch files imported with a different currency code than the base currency code of the Company, an exchange rate dialog will be displayed. The transaction amounts will be converted to the Company base currency using exchange rates.

Note: Accredo can still import GL Batch files created with previous versions of Accredo. These files have a Signature of MGB81.
