Drop Time Import

Use this import utility to import drop times from an ASCII file. File layouts for this import are defined in File Map. At a minimum, you must include the truck ID, drop time and drop number in your file map, although you may include all of the required fields. Any fields that are not included in the file map will be prompted for at run time.

To import drop times:

• Select Utilities | Import | Drop Time to display the Drop Time Import window.

• Click Add and complete the following fields.

READ OPTION	predefined	Indicate whether the import should be run in commit mode (transactions imported into Circulation) or edit mode (no transactions imported—the file is simply read and any errors displayed).
FILE FORMAT	setup	Select a File Map format to use for this import. The file name may default from the file map.
PRODUCT	setup	Select the product.
RUN DATE	date	Enter the run date.
DEPARTURE	setup	Select the truck departure order.
