Interfacing cash code attributes

You can upload attributes and values from a non-Lawson application to cash code in Cash Management. Use this procedure to import cash code information from an external source to the Cash Management application. For additional help, Cash Management conversion file layouts and the Financial Conversion Guide are available on the Documentation page on Infor Support Portal.

  1. Prepare a comma-separated value (CSV) file containing the activity attribute information that you will interface. The file fields must match the order and data type of the fields in the Cash Code Attribute Value Interface (CBMXCONV for UNIX and Windows or DBCBCBN for IBM i) file. This file layout is available on the Documentation page on Infor Support Portal.
  2. Transfer the CSV file to the server where your Lawson environment resides.
  3. Use the Import command to load the cash code data from the CSV file into the import file. For instructions on using the Import command, see Lawson Administration: Server Setup and Maintenance.
  4. To review or check for errors, run Cash Code Attribute Interface (CB162) in non-update mode.
  5. To review or edit records in the activity interface file, use Cash Code Attribute Interface Maintenance (CB62.1).
  6. Update the imported activities using Cash Code Attribute Interface (CB162).
