There is an unsupported tool called QSImport that is available from MS Tech Support. Personally I don't think that tool is worth the effort of learning - it's easier for me to just use the tools built into SQL Management Studio. If you want to use a tool specific to RMS, get the Import Tool from Retail Realm - it is far more powerful than QSImport.

QSCimport works OK.

For items, it's almost easier to use Excel to generate a series of query statements.

Unless you are absolutely helpless, don't pay for data import into RMS.

Hi Tom,

I am obviously helpless as I don't know how you can import an excel file into RMS. Can you give me any hints as this would save a considerable amount of time.

Thanks

Andy

Contact me by e-mail and I will give you some direction.

Basically, use the text functions in Excel to build a series of INSERT INTO statements, copy the statements into SO Admin and run them.

For every row, add this in the rightmost column: ="INSERT INTO Item (ItemLookupCode, Description, etc...) VALUES ("&ILC&", "&DESC&", "&ETC...&")"

Where the values referenced are cell references. The quotes are required.

The Excel VLOOKUP function can help you associate the items with the necessary SupplierIDs from the Supplier table. You'll want to export the supplier table and copy it into Excel - preferably to a separate worksheet within a single workbook.

If you need to import suppliers, do that first. Items second. If you want to import customers with account balances, use QSCimport. Importing customers (no account balances) would be OK.

There is a utility for importing from QuickSell - QSCImp. If you can find that somewhere then you can import from a text file that is saved in Excel.
