Accpac (DOS) Import dialog fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Accpac extension |
The extension of the Accpac (DOS) file. The extension can be:
|
| Invert account number | Reverses the account number |
| Budget data | Imports the budget data
|
| Use department number 0 where applicable |
Inserts a zero before the account number to keep the number formatting consistent. Account numbers will be imported in the format 0-xxxx rather than xxxx (the default). Applicable when you are importing a file with departmental accounts where some department codes are not available. |
| Use department number to build entities | Uses the department numbers to build entities in the Working Papers file. |
| If file GLDATE'I.??? not found, will use File Profile setting and number of fiscal periods specified |
If the GLDATE'I.??? (GLDATE'I.xxx), cannot be found during the import, select whether to use 12 or 13 fiscal periods.
Note: Some earlier version of ACCPAC, such as version 5, may not even have the GLDAT'I.xxx file. To change the importing period dates, you can remove the file GLDATE'I.xxx from the import files and set the period dates applicable in the Engagement Properties. |
| If GL import check to create reversing entries for Retained Earnings |
Allows reversing entries. Normally this option is not necessary unless your file is out of balance after the GL import. The reversing entries may need to be written to the retained earnings account. |
