Import and Export Utility

223

The Field Name field displays the WMS fields with information that
can be imported or exported.

If the box in the Required field is checked, this field must be selected.
The field must have a numeric position greater than zero, and it must be
contained in your import file.

To include a field that is not required, enter the position that represents
the order where this field’s data appears in the imported or exported
file. (An entry of zero excludes a field from inclusion in the selected
interface.)

If a fixed width file type is selected, the Length column appears and
requires an entry when a position has been assigned. It is the length of
this field in the import or export file. This column is hidden when tab
delimited fields are selected.

The Max Length field shows the size of the existing fields in WMS
and is not editable. It is a required reference for length entries when
using the fixed length file type or comparing imported field sizes from
external systems.

You are able to change the data order by selecting the column name.
Use this feature to organize the numeric order during position assign-
ment.

A Note About Importing Data

When importing data, your import file must contain exactly the same
number of fields for which you assign positions in the interface tem-
plate grid.
