Loading data

Loading data is used when we want to create or update multiple documents.

This process may result in

  • Multiple documents are registered.

  • Multiple documents are updated.

  • Multiple documents are registered or updated.

Loading of data is done by using files in CSV format which are uploaded to RamBase, and processed asynchronously.

Processing the load file with a relevant load program

Loading of data is done by using files in CSV format which are uploaded to RamBase, and processed asynchronously.

Process the load file with a relevant load program – A load file has been created and must be processed by a load program so the documents can be created or updated.

  1. To find a relevant program, enter INP in the program field, to enter the Input menu (INP) application.

    Note

    If the relevant load job is not activated for your company, contact RamBase Support to have this activated.

  2. Find the intended item by navigating the list and press ENTER to open the Import/export Wizard.

    1. Click the Documentation button to open the Input documentation application.

    2. Click the Send me example CSV file icon, envelope, to trigger an example file as template for the loading of data.

    3. Create the file using the template, and click the Start import icon.

  3. Click the Select file button and upload the .csv file.

    Note

    Documentation will list which fields are loadable, mandatory and display examples of how the values should be defined. It is recommended loading a line or two as test to verify that the loading is working as expected.

Tasks involved in this process

  • Create a load file - If multiple documents should be created or updated, a load file must be created.

  • Process the load file with a relevant load program - A load file has been created and must be processed by a load program so the documents can be created or updated.

  • Check the log for loading results - After the load program has been completed the log should be checked to see if any errors were reported.

  • If necessary, modify the entries that could be loaded and repeat - If the load program reported any errors, the rows that there were reported errors on must be modified and reloaded.
