Import Budget

When external applications are used for supplemental annual budget processing, New World ERP provides a means to import that transmittal file into the Annual Budget Processing module. The import supports supplemental budget transactions.

A new Import Type Usage has been defined on the Import Type Entry page for budgets. If an Import Type does not exist for the budget import, it will need to be created. ClosedShow me.

  1. The Active flag is selected by default. Deselect it only if you want to define the import type but not use it at this time.
  2. The Import Type Usage value is required. This control displays the standard options available. Select Budget Import.
  3. The Import Name is also required. Enter a value that will help you identify the import type you are defining. It may contain 64 characters. This is the name that you will see when you select an import type during processing.
  4. The Custom DLL value is the full path to the DLL used to transform the external import file into the standard XML input file for the import. The path must be for the application server. The translator tool loads this file; it tells the tool how to translate the data.

Note: The Custom DLL and Custom Class controls will be blank if the import file is in the New World ERP standard format.

  1. The Custom Class value is the name of the class in the Custom DLL that will be used to perform the import file transformation. See the table below for the standard values.
  2. The Error Limit indicates the maximum number of errors allowed by this import type. If it is left blank, no error limit is used. The acceptable value range is 0-999.
  3. The Time Out value is the maximum number of seconds to allow for transforming the import file. If this control is left blank, no time out is used. The acceptable value range is 0-9999 seconds.
  4. The Maximum Batches to Archive field is used to tell the system how many successfully processed import batches to retain. If it is left blank, there is no maximum amount that can be archived. The acceptable value range is 0-99. When the limit is reached and a new batch is archived, the system will delete the oldest batch to make room for the next one.
  5. Click Save.
