Importing a .imp file i generated. Getting error "there is no corresponding end tag for adding transactions"

Question

As the title says. I have included the imp file i am trying to import. I can't see anything wrong with the file that the documentation discusses so I need some help. I did replace the real company name with the words company name. Other than that it is original.

I didn't take the time to validate each line but based on the message, my best guess is that you need an extra line feed after </salinvoice> to put a blank line at the bottom.

Depending on how you created the file, you can just open it in Notepad, hit Enter after </salinvoice> and hit save. Then try again.

I don't know if it matters but I have always used <SalInvoice> and </SalInvoice>, not <salInvoice> and </salInvoice> (caps on first letters of Sal and Invoice) because that is the way Sage published the format. Since it is only looking for a proper End Tag, I assume it is a line feed issue.
