Product BOM Extract/Amend/Update Template

This PostTrans function allows the user to easily extract, amend, and import Sage 50 Product BOM (Bill of Materials) data.

The cell A1 has a tag “Sage50prodBOM” to designate the type of import.  It uses a series of tags, placed in row 1, to identify the data to be processed.  

These tags, listed in table below, can be easily added to a spreadsheet using the Tags button.  See Training for an explanation of this.

Price List Required fields

To Import/Extract/Amend Exchequer Enterprise Product BOM Data, the following Tags/Fields must be specified:

Sage50priceListsupp, PsErrorDesc, PsSupplier, PsProductCode, etc... see table below

Cell A1 must equal “Sage50priceListsupp” 

PbParentCode is used to detect end of spreadsheet.  PostTrans will stop Importing/Amending, from row 4 on-wards, when this field is empty.

Restrictions

Sheet must be sorted by PbParentCode before importation.  PostTrans does this automatically.
