Import Data (Non-Regular) (daxch0223m000)

Use this session to run the import program to transfer data on a non regular basis from sequential ASCII files to LN tables.

This session can also be used to test exchange schemes that are run on a regular basis, to ensure that the import procedure functions properly.

An import on a regular basis is especially useful in a multisite environment. In these situations it is important that no run is lost, overwritten, imported twice or imported in an incorrect order.

The details of an exchange scheme are defined in the master data and import business objects.

Exchange Scheme

The exchange scheme code.

Note: The exchange scheme is created in the Exchange Schemes (daxch0501m000) session.
Exchange Scheme

The exchange scheme code.

Note: The exchange scheme is created in the Exchange Schemes (daxch0501m000) session.
Batch

The batch code.

Note: The batch code is created in the Batches (daxch0104m000) session.
Batch

The batch code.

Note: The batch code is created in the Batches (daxch0104m000) session.
Batch Sequence Number

The sequence code of the batch.

Note: The batch sequence code is defined in the Batches (daxch0104m000) session.
Batch Sequence Number

The sequence code of the batch.

Note: The batch sequence code is defined in the Batches (daxch0104m000) session.
Processing Type

The processing type of the import procedure.

Allowed values

New run

Use this option to start a new exchange program

Restart previous run

Use this option to restart the previous runnumber

Reprocess rejected rec's

Use this option to reprocess rejected records. LN stores the rejected records in additional files:

  • Rejected Due to Error. This file contains records that are rejected because of database related problems such as index or domain errors.
  • Rejected Due to condition. This file contains records that are rejected because return values of conditions return as false.

This option can not be used if the exchange is based on an audit procedure.

Note: The option Reprocess rejected records can only be used during an import procedure.
Continue interrupted run

Use this option to continue an interrupted exchange program. The program starts at the beginning of the table relation that was not completed. You can only restart the import if more than one batch line exists. The restart can begin at the start of an incomplete batch line. If only one batch line exists, this option is the same as a complete restart.

Reprocess Records Rejected due to Errors

If this check box is selected, records that are rejected due to errors in the previous import run are processed again.

Reprocess Records Rejected due to Conditions

If this check box is selected, records that are rejected due to conditions in the previous run are processed again.

Overrule Batch Company

If this check box is selected, batch companies that are defined in the Batches (daxch0104m000) session are overruled.

Overrule Batch Company

The LN company that is used instead of the batch company. This company can only be defined if the Overrule Batch Company check box is selected.

Really Quit on Stop Condition

If this check box is selected, an import program cannot continue if it is stopped. This is because the return value of a stop condition is true.

If this check box is cleared, the exchange process will not stop if a stop condition returns true. Instead, a log message will be written to the log file.

The stop condition is defined in the Table Relations (Import) (daxch0121s000) session.

Wait for <CR> with Messages

If this check box is selected, the import program waits for a <CR> at the end of the messages.

If this check box is cleared, the import program continues without any interaction from you. This option can be used during an import that runs throughout the night.

Runnumber to be Imported/Redone

The run number of the exchange scheme that is imported or redone.
