Import of miscellaneous receipts for inventory

SOLVED

We are importing inventory receipts into a new warehouse.    We are using the import template FTIMSR.  It works fine.   The issue we are having is dealing with errors and the subsequent creation of multiple misc receipt records in Sage X3.   

If we build a long list of inventory items to import it's invariable going to encounter an error on ONE item and reject the entire submission until the next header or "E" record.

If we break it up into smaller more managable number of records we get a miscellaneous receipt record for every header or "E" record.

It works, it's just messy.

Is there a trick?   Perhaps modifying the header or "E" record to specify a previously created Miscellaneous Receipt (VCRNUM as a constant) so that it will add to that receipt?   

Thanks.

    I understand you don't want to create large misc. receipt nor single line misc. receipt when importing the stock.

    Would it be possible to create different flat files with maximum 100 lines…

    Would it be possible to create different flat files with maximum 100 lines (as an example) ? So each document created would be smaller with higher chance of success without managing an individual misc. recept for each line imported.

    We did that to an extent but there were still too many errors.   We literally created an E record for every entry and this let us instantly isolate all the errors.   We also created 3122 miscellaneous receipts at the largest  location.  That's a lot but it seems to have worked.   We have not tied out the numbers yet.  Still have a location to do and they didn't have all the bins defined that they told us to put the items in.
