Hi Steve, AtlasXl is really a pain as I have been having. FIrst one is, no good support from next innovation. Second thing is: it does not work properly with Ax4.0. I tried to load Item external description, it just looks/points to zipcode. One and foremost thing is, it does not use Axapta security groups and permissions. For example, I have given limited permission to a user. The user is still able to insert/update all the listed main tables via atlas xl Login ....This disappointed me a lot.. Or just data export wise, yes its good..but for just data import , if the std import does not support my requirements, I rather prefer to write scripts using X++... All I wanted to say is VERY BAD support... I thought of sharing my exp...for atlasxl with Ax4.0. I hope my comments can be taken in a friendly manner! thanks, subbu

For GL, bring in balances per period per account (so you can use AX for prior period comparisions). Step 2. For customers, one line in the journal per open invoice (the offset account is your customer control account in the GL). The control account is used as the offset so the net effect on it (the control account) is zero. It needs to be zero as step one (above) has the correct balance in it already. Step 3. For vendors, one line in the journal per open invoice, the offset account is your vendor control account) Try using www.atlasxl.com.au It allows you to import AX journals from Excel. Get your data from the old system into Excel and then use Atlas xl to create and import the AX journals. Atlas xl handles number sequences and validation for you.

I need to upload GL opening balances, Customer Balances and Vendor Balances to be transfered into the system for the first time. Can anyone help me on how to do it? I searched previous posts but could not get anything solid. Thanks, --------------------------------- Boardwalk for $500? In 2007? Ha!
