Directions for the AP Invoice Upload Spreadsheet The AP Invoice Upload Spreadsheet is used to enter Accounts Payable historical invoices (only, no GL Entry) to the OGSQL system. This spreadsheet is designed to assist in creating the necessary text file needed for the Import Data from ASCII file option on the Exceptional Processing Menu. Steps to follow If necessary, reset the spreadsheet Click Reset Click Reset again Populate columns B through AD with the appropriate data (definitions of fields and data type at end of instructions). Click the Check Data button The data entered will be checked for errors based on field size and data content. If a large number of rows have been entered, this may take some time. Please be patient.
If errors are discovered in the data, a notification asking to check or ignore the errors If Check is chosen, the user will be returned to the spreadsheet to make changes. Errors will be marked on the spreadsheet in red Hover over the cell with the mouse to see a comment with more detailed information on the error Correct any errors and click the Check Data button again. Repeat as necessary until all errors have been corrected. If no errors are detected or if ignore is chosen, a dialog box displays to save the text file.

Navigate to Process Exceptional Processing Import Data from ASCII File. Select your company code if necessary and click OK. Place a check next to the AP Invoice option Click the Scan button [ ] and brows to the directory where the file is saved. Verify Advanced Selection settings The advanced selection option allows the user to select a specific directory that will apply to all files selected. There are also several other options that the user may choose from.
o Rename Files after Import If multiple files are being uploaded at one time, this option will rename each file when the upload is complete. This is helpful in auditing that all uploads are completed. o Validate Selected File Names This option will validate that the file name selected is what the program is requiring. o Overwrite Duplicate Records If the file contains a key field that is already in the database, the data in the database will be overwritten by the data in the file. Otherwise, an error on import will be received on duplicate records. o Report Overwritten Duplicate Records when the upload is complete, a report of all records overwritten will be outputted. o Recognize OMIT_ME Normally, a column of data is considered omitted on an import line if there is nothing there, not even a blank, after its preceding comma and before its trailing comma (if any). If the user has difficulty making a.csv file, then instead they can put OMIT_ME in that positions and check this box, and that data cell will be treated as omitted. Omitting something has a different result than putting in a blank or zero. If the user omits something on a brand new record being imported (not a re-write), then the default value for that column is used instead. If they omit something on a rewrite import, then that data item is left untouched when the rewrite is done. This is different than when a blank/zero is included: that will always change the contents of the resulting record to blank/zero. o Prorate Expense Deck Interests If an Expense deck participant s interest changes and causes the total to be higher or lower than the original, this option would prorate the rest of the participant s interest so that the original total interest would remain the same. o Prorate Revenue Deck Interests If a Revenue deck participant s interest changes and causes the total to be higher or lower than the original, this option would prorate the rest of the participant s interest so that the original total interest would remain the same. o View Generic Import Formats When enabled, the user will be able to view all imports whether they are applicable to the database or not. Use of imports that do not apply to the database before the options required are enabled will cause an error on import. Click OK Click Import
