Hi there I am trying to help someone import journal transactions from a POS systems in a CSV format and I cannot find a record layout anywhere.

We were finally able to get by all of the errors but upon (what we thought was a successful completion),we could not locate the transactions.  This is the format I was able to get the furthest with: Its in Excel below but saved as CSV

Date Reference Number of Distributions Currency Exchange Rate G/L Account Description Amount Transaction Number Recur Number Recur Frequency
10/17/2018 10/17/18 Cash for De 3 1020-0300 Tender $0.02 1 0 0
10/17/2018 10/17/18 Sales PLANT 3 4022-0300 Department (Sales) -$0.01 1 0 0
10/17/2018 10/17/18 Sales DRIED 3 4023-0300 Department (Sales) -$0.01 1 0 0

    It did help.  Thank you so much.   I had to demoralize the layout to include a date and header for each record. Do you know if there is any way to include an account reference is in the layout?    It seems very specific with no mapping tools. 

    We are also receiving supplier invoices for multiple retail stores summarized by account-dep to post to AP.  Do you have a layout for this?  I our actual iitem level inv management  is performed in different software.

    The method for generating Purchase Invoices and Sales invoice are very different, more so because these are linked accounts in Sage 50 (AP and AR)

    If you generate an .IMP file using KB  91392 and open it in notepad, you can have a look at the format. That article indicates that if you email a sales invoice, it will fire out a purchase invoice IMP. If you want more detailed mapping info on the text format, have a look at KB 41370. As an alternative, if you weren't concerned about getting too technical, you can have a look at our partners at http://sagepss.com/Solutions.aspx?p=6. Some on here have created their own solutions for importing AP and AR.
