  • If Protection is activated, the File permission "Import" is required to perform this operation.
  1. Open the client file in which you want to import.

  2. On the Engagement tab, in the Data group, click Import | Accounting Software.

  3. In the Import From field, select Adagio Ledger and in the Version field, select the version you want to import.

    Note: Click here to see all accounting software supported versions.

  4. In the Import Path field, type the exact path where the file you want to import resides or use Browse to locate the file manually.

  5. Under Import Components, choose to import either:

    • The Trial Balance (Opening Entries) or,
    • The General Ledger Detail.
  6. To import client information, click Import Client Information. This information will be displayed in the Engagement Properties dialog.

  7. Complete the remaining fields of the dialog. >>Quick Reference
  8. Click OK to begin importing.

Note: If, after a GL import, the file is out of balance, then it may be because reversing entries need to be written to the retained earnings account. To allow reversing entries, select the If GL import, create reversing entries for Retained Earnings check box. Normally this option is not necessary unless your file is out of balance after importing.

Accounting data is imported into the client file.

  • The GLDATE'I.xxx (GLDATE'I.??? in the dialog) file from Adagio Ledger versions 6.x-8.x is the equivalent to the GLFISC'R.xxx file from version 9.0.
  • GLPST.xxx in previous versions is the equivalent to GLPOST'R.xxx for version 9.2A.
