The resulting page looks like a transaction upload page. Don't
mind that; simply select the CSV you want to upload and press
"Save".
Should I ignore or fill in the other fields? Like "date", or
"Reference", or "Description", or "Transaction"?
Yes. Those fields are for a different type of upload and the upload input
screen doesn't distinguish its various uses.
I'm stumped. I'm not getting either the new
"goods" import or
the existing "inventory" import to work. Maybe the content or
format of my files?
Now that you get me thinking about it again, I don't think you will get the
"inventory adjustment" upload to work for your purpose: when uploading
inventory adjustments, the adjustment code expects inventory to (have been
or) be available in order to modify the actual numbers in stock; while it
does that, it adjusts the information required for posting COGS (Cost Of
Goods Sold) as well. However, in your case, no COGS information is
available yet, which means that the COGS information can't be adjusted. I'm
now expecting that the upload of inventory adjustments leads to errors.
That said, I'm coming to the - to me - disturbing conclusion that we have
no means to initialize a company's inventory when e.g. moving off of
another accounting solution, other than by manually entering an AP invoice.
I mean, with a database script you could, but it's not supported by the
application out of the box at the moment. (I've created
https://github.com/ledgersmb/LedgerSMB/issues/4496 to make sure that we
grow this functionality!)
Maybe something else missing in my Debian
Buster (10) install? LedgerSMB is version 1.6.9 installed
from package, with the content of "ledgersmb/old/bin" updated
(per email of 2019-12-24) and a new "import_csv.pl" (per email
of 2019-12-27).
From the information you provided below, I have to conclude that the
Internal Server Error you're seeing is a mistake I made when I prepared the
new import_csv.pl file for you: it's based on master&1.7, but you're
running 1.6. With my considerations and thoughts above, I'm afraid fixing
that file isn't going to be a solution to your problem. Instead, I have to
write new functionality to allow you to upload your inventory. I'll need
time to develop that though, I'm afraid. In the mean time, I could help you
indicate which tables and fields you should fill if you were to do an
import with SQL scripts, if that's of help.
Sorry for the laggy reply; there were simply too few hours in a day over
the past month.
Regards,
Erik.
I sent a couple messages to the list with my .csv files
attached. Maybe those didn't get through.
Any help or hints or clues would be appreciated!!
I'm getting two different errors when I try to use the new
import_csv.pm. I'm not tracking down what I'm going different to
get each message.
A dialog box may open with this message:
