KEEP CONTROL WHEN SOMETHING NEEDS ATTENTION

Clear errors. A straightforward retry.

If a file fails PostTrans or Sage 50 API validation, it moves to the failed directory with the reason added to the XML. An email alerts your nominated user.

Correct the file and move it back to the import folder to submit it again. You can also configure an email alert if the software has not been running for 30 minutes.
