ImportExport.csv installation

 

Requirements before installation and use:

 

Log in as a user with minimum Read/Write to the type of record you wish to import/export.

 

An example:

 

Your security group for your user has Object.Client set to ReadOnly.

Therefore you will receive the following error if you attempt to import clients because your security group rights to Object.Client needs to be at minimum Read/Write

 

ImporterrorNotAuthorized

 

 

 

Installation:

 

1. Perform the AyaNova installation on this computer where you want to run the ImportExport.csv from.

 

If you had previously installed AyaNova, no worries, just run the AyaNovaSetup.exe file again overtop. Your previous selections will show already selected too.

 

 

2. During the AyaNovaSetup.exe installation, select the Install Import/Export to csv plugin

 

Setup4e

 

 

3. Complete the installation

 

NOTE: If installing overtop of an existing AyaNova installation that has already been configured for network use, and you get a message asking if you wish to overwrite the config.txt, select No.

ConfigTXToverwrite

 

NOTE: if you get a message such as below about replacing a file, this is occurring because you have something running. Click Abort.

Then check to make sure you do NOT have any AyaNova program running on this computer (i.e. the desktop AyaNova, the network Generator, the dataportal, etc

Then run the installation again confirming no longer getting the message.

4. It is recommended to perform an export of the existing type of records first, so you can familiarize yourself with the format of the csv file needed for importing that type of record.

 

 

5. Run the ImportExport.csv utility from within the AyaNova program:

 

From the main AyaNova menu bar to export or import or to set Duplicate import options if licensed

ImportExportCSV ImportClientCSV2

 

From the Parts grid to export selected part records

From the Units grid to export selected unit records

From the Clients grid to export selected client records

ImportClientCSV3 ImportClientCSV3b

 

From within a specific Part entry screen to export that specific part

From within a specific Unit entry screen to export that specific unit

From within a specific Client entry screen to export that specific client

ImportClientCSV4 ImportClientCSV4b

 

 

 

NOTE: your AyaNova user log in must have minimum Read/Write to the object to be able to import.

 

For example, if your security group for your user has Object.Client set to ReadOnly then you will receive the following error if you attempt to import clients

 

ImporterrorNotAuthorized
