I tell you the best way to upload data. Create Classes in X++ that use ODBC. I always upload customer data into Axapta during implementations using X++ and ODBC.
To give you and example, we had a functional consultant take Zipcode data and try and upload that into Axapta through the Excel import. It took 5 hours for Axapta to upload that data through Excel. I took the data when I came on the project, and had to re-load the Zipcode data. I delete it, and used my ODBC Classes that I have wrote in X++ and it took less than 10 mins. 5 hours vs. less then 10mins? If you want an example on how to do this you can search the site: http://dynamics-ax.blogspot.com Thanks, Brandon -----Original Message----- From: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hemant Kumthekar Sent: Thursday, March 23, 2006 9:23 AM To: Axapta-Knowledge-Village@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Axapta-Knowledge-Village] Upload Thru Axapta Excel Templates Hi, Use CSV file to upload. It is faster than excel upload. Create the same excel spreadsheet, but you may have to map later to create definition for upload. We had uploaded 4 years balances for 3 companies, thats lot of records but the load was much much faster. Another soultion is ATLAS/XL that works well too but I haven't tested with heavy load, you may give a try.

I uploaded 378 lines with minimal data at each line level. It took almost 15 minutes. What i would like to know, is there any way to optimize the Data Upload thru Axapta? Is there a way to reduce the Formatting Issue? Does any one use any 3rd Party tool to upload the data into Axapta? The above are generic questions, but would really appreciate some advise on them.
