13. Price Importing

Price changes can be imported from a text file.

The text file format must consists of a PLU number and price value separated by a comma on
each line, as shown in the example below. The decimal point in the price is optional.

Text import format

1001,1.23

1002,3.45

1003,5.67

This imports price changess for PLUs 1001, 1002, and 1003. The prices are set to $1.23, $3.45,
and $5.67 respectively.

The PLUs must already exist in the AstraLink database.

The operation of the price import function is as follows:

1.

Select Import Prices from the File menu. A File Open dialog appears.

2.

Select the file to import, then click Open.

3.

AstraLink imports the price changes from the file and updates the database. A
message appears when the import has finished indicating how many prices were
imported and whether any lines had errors.
An error means either the text format was invalid or the specified PLU number does
not exist in the AstraLink database.
