Import and Export Scenarios

Dear Acumatica Support Team,I would like to inquire whether it is possible to import inventory items into the Requisition screen.Currently, I need to add more than 100 inventory items to a requisition, and selecting each item manually is very time-consuming. It would be greatly appreciated if you could advise on which function or tool (such as an import scenario or any standard feature) can be used to import inventory items in bulk.Thank you very much in advance for your support and guidance.

Hello community,I have been working on an import scenario of Purchase Receipts, where I am looking to import the lines using Add PO button → Under the Details tab, but the scenario isn’t working. Can anyone let me know what is it that I am missing here?Have attached the XML file of the import scenario. Thanks in advance.

Hello,     Our vendor is requiring us send files which are exported from Acumatica to them by SFTP in daily basis.       Yes, this can be done manually, I can export the file to my local computer and then I use a SFTP client to send the file.       However, I am wondering can this be done in an automation way?      Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,I currently have an import scenario set up that creates a single purchase receipt for multiple drop ship orders. This is working well and behaving as expected.One enhancement that would make this process even more effective would be the ability to update the unit cost of the lines being added to the purchase receipt within the same import scenario.This would be especially helpful because our vendor pricing can vary based on customer location. Right now, I handle this by creating the vendor bill separately and adjusting the unit cost there using another import scenario.If it were possible to set or override the unit cost directly on the purchase receipt during import, it would allow everything to be handled in a single process and significantly improve efficiency.I’ve attached the original XML for reference.Has anyone found a way to achieve this within a single import scenario, or is this a current limitation?Thanks in advance for any insight!

While trying to import “users’ with the user type of “Portal External User” I encounter an error: “Unable to link employee with guest user. Do you want to proceed operation and remove link?” I have tried adding the dialog box with the answer of yes and it still doesn’t work.Import Scenario 

As of now, here is a test:My goal is to import three GL transaction records in a single batch. I have been working on this scenario for over two days and several iterations. As of now, the scenario imports the records and creates 2 batches from 3 records. I am attaching the latest version of the import scenario and the sample data. As of now, the source for this data is a SQL Server table, but for simplification, I have exported it to an Excel file (attached). The amount fields in the table are defined a money columns.You may notice a lot of hard-coding because I had to hardcode several field values to understand what is going on.I am working on Acumatica 2025 R1Build 25.101.0153.7 

Hi Acumatica Fam! I hope everyone is doing well.I have created a basic Import Scenario to add new customers and update existing records. Everything is working correctly, except for updating the Default Payment Method under the Payment Method tab.By default, the system pulls the settings from the Customer Class, but some new customers require a different Payment Method. Has anyone successfully updated this specific field via an Import Scenario?I’ve attached screenshots of my current Import Scenario and the specific field I am trying to update for reference.   

Does anyone have an example of an import scenario that will update the Lot Size and Min Order Qty for Supplier Inventory?  There are many items where multiple suppliers can supply the same stock item so it needs to be specific.

I am trying to complete ‘In process’ production orders’ via import scenario and replicate the user sequence. I don’t get an error message but it isn’t updating the records, what am I missing? 

Hello Community, How can I create an export scenario for SOLines and then import it using an import scenario? Where can I find detailed information about export scenarios — in forums or documentation?Thanks in advance.

Hello Acumatica Community,I'm reaching out to inquire about the best practices for migrating historical data from Sage 300 to Acumatica. Given Sage's significant presence in the market, it seems logical that Acumatica might have developed a user-friendly method for this data transition.From my research, I've come across "Import Scenarios" in Acumatica. Could anyone confirm if this is the recommended approach for importing historical data?Additionally, I'm curious about any potential limitations regarding the types of data (especially transactional data) that can be migrated from Sage to Acumatica. I've encountered varying opinions from different consultants, which has led to some confusion and concern.I would greatly appreciate any insights or experiences you could share regarding this process.

Am I even close?  I’m new to import scenarios.I have several hundred records to modify the warehouse on, so it would be so helpful. 

I’m trying to route the shipment confirmation document to separate printers based on conditions defined in a GI through an automated business event.I’ve done similar business events on the process orders screen, but this is my first time on the process shipments screen. I feel like there is an import scenario bug on the Shipments target object but wanted to share here in case anybody had ideas as I’m at a loss.This is the error I get. “0 records of 1 have been processed. The last error was At least one item has not been processed.”I’ve turned all of the “extra” parameters off to test and encountered the same error, so the error is either coming for the action or the shipment number key. I have also tried to run the action as “Print Shipment Confirmation” for kicks. No luck.Anyways, I appreciate your additional review. Thanks.  

Hey, gang - our client gets an excel file monthly from one their customers to be imported into their system.  The issue is that the file may have Stock Items included within that are NOT in our Clients instance, nor should they be.  Nevertheless, they need the data associated with the item to be imported, but under a generic item.  In this case, the client wants the nonexistent Stock Item that’s in the Excel file to be renamed to a generic item (say, “GENERICITEM”) during the import scenario.  The client would prefer not to cross reference the existing stock item list with the monthly customer provided list and have the import scenario do the heavy lifting.  Is there a formula or a combination of formulas that can determine if a stock item is in the system and, if not, return a generic value?  Note:  Yes, you could cross-reference and update the spreadsheet beforehand or intentionally error it out and replace the errored items - I’m curious if there is a way to let the system handle th

Good day,I wrote the attached WO Import Scenario.  It is said it processed without issue.  However, it not producing the write off document from the scenario.  I think it has to do with the selection/process action not working.Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.Evan

I cannot seem to resolve the error ‘The Submit button is disabled’.If the Submit action is removed, the time card Save creates and saves the time card as expected.I have tried many options in the scenario to continue to Submit without any luck (different flags, different Submit action, etc.). Any suggestions on how to resolve? Attaching the XML also. 

Hello everyone,We recently upgraded to 2025 R2 and one of our Import Scenarios is now throwing errors.  Here is the main one:  The Import Scenario is Deleting the Salesperson from each location in preparation for adding the new person in a second scenario.I went to the Customer and every aspect is filled out correctly.  Nothing in the error message is empty for the Customer.  Do we need to add all of those fields now to each Import Scenario???  I have attached the file to this post.

Hi,I am working on import purchase order receipt type transfer receipt which is triggered by record change on Business Event. But, I can’t apply field locations of receipt lines with the same value, just line nbr 1 is applied. I don’t know if there is something wrong with my import mapping.  

We have a client who is using a third-party timecard and payroll system which utilizes Alpha-based employee IDs in these systems.  We also need to import time card data into Acumatica, but our employees are numerically assigned and have limited 7-character codes due to the BIZACCT segmented key setting.  For this reason we are using “Substitution Lists” to cross-reference the Timecard’s employee identifier with the Employee ID in Acumatica.  We are storing the timecard system’s employee ID using External Ref Nbr field in the Employee screen.In order to keep our substitution list up to date, we’re using the Employee GI as a data provider to update the GI using an import scenario.  Knowing that the substitution list will error if we try using the “=1” code for new lines, we’re using the @@OriginalValue constant to define the row key and mapping it to the Native Field [SubstitutionValues.OriginalValue].  The expectation is that the import will locate the Original Value in the grid, if it

Hi,I have a list of dropship orders in a csv (downloaded from a 3rd party app) that contains everything I need to create a Sales Order with an import scenario, except our customer’s details. If all the orders in the spreadsheet are for the same customer how do you recommend I proceed?could add column to spreadsheet - but want to avoid that manual step.  Could write something in Excel to ask for the customer and create a new csv, but this is the 2020s. hard code the customer id into the import scenario - possible but there are many of these and that creates a burden on maintaining the scenarios (if one for each customer). Is there a way to ask the user to choose a customer as part of running the scenario? Can the import scenario link to a Generic inquiry that could be filtered to the correct customer? Any other ideas? Thanks in advanceSimon
