Import Attributes in NXT

Mark Young

I reached out to service center in June and they confirmed that right now there is no way to import Attributes in the Excel-Add in. They confirmed that the database view will remain available until a resolution is found. Has anyone been able to upload attributes using the Excel add-in? I keep seeing the note that the database view is going to be removed, but the current solution on the excel add-in does not work.

@Mark Young I don't see the functionality yet in the Excel Add-In unfortunately and I sure do hope they build it in before taking away the ability to import batches! There are a few ideas in the ideabank regarding this that you can vote on, but I can't imagine they won't build it in before they take the ability away in database.

@Mark Young Also, not sure you are aware, but with the JE record feature being removed in Database, you can still import batches with attributes through the database view import feature. Here's the instructions I received: “create the Journal Entry in webview (batch header)/update their JE Import file to add the Batch Number/Go to DB view/Admin/ Imports to run their JE import."

@Katy Ripp Thanks for this info.
