Import Purchase Invoices (AP) from a text file.

I want to import Purchase Invoices (AP) from a text file. The Knowledgebase says this:

From https://support.na.sage.com/selfservice/viewdocument.do?noCount=true&externalId=10186&sliceId=1&cmd=displayKC&dialogID=105647&docType=kc&isLoadPublishedVer=&stateId=105649&docTypeID=DT_Article&ViewedDocsListHelper=com.kanisa.apps.common.BaseViewedDocsListHelperImpl

This articles describes how to import general journal entries only from a text file (CSV). Sage 50-Canadian Edition does not provide a text file method of importing actual transaction details such as invoices. If you have a third-party software developer, refer to the Sage 50-Canadian Edition SDK as there are some methods available to import transactions.

I have a third-party developer but I don't see where these other methods are described. Can you direct me? Thanks in advance.

    This is from the dev-import.pdf manual that is included with the Sage 50 SDK:

    Purchase Invoices and Purchase Quotes
    To add a purchase invoice, use the <purinvoice> transaction type. To add a purchase quote,
    use the <purquote> transaction type. Within the tags, there is one vendor line, one transaction
    option line, and one or more detail lines.

    To import a Purchase Invoice, change PurQuote to PurInvoice, and paste this text into a file with .IMP as the extension to the filename :

    <Version>
    "12001", "1"
    </Version>
    <PurQuote>
    <! This is the vendor line "name"
    "UNIVERSAL CONSTRUCTION"
    <! This is an option line
    <! "no. of details", "quote no.", "entry date", "ship date", "total amount", "disount rate",
    <! "discount days", "net days", "freight amt", "tax information"
    "1","203","3-15-2000", ,"69.98","2.00","30","60","10.00","GST","0","1","7.00","0.70"
    <! This is a detail line
    <! "item no.", "quantity", "price", "amt", "tax information"
    "C1020","20.0000","2.6000","52.00","GST","0","1","7.00","3.64","PST Charged","0","0","7.00","3.64"
