Introduction
With the use of CSV files it is possible to upload multiple records at once. This prevents having to add records manually which saves a lot of time.
On this page it is explained how to upload the Master Data and which Master Data Uploads are available.
How to Upload Master Data
Master Data can be uploaded using 'EDI Jobs'.
Example:
- Open the page 'EDI Jobs'
- Add a new EDI Job
- Select the EDI Definition Job for which you would like to upload the Master Data
- The EDI Definition needs to be setup before the EDI Job can be uploaded and determines what records will be created
- The Description is automatically filled with the name of the EDI Definition Job, but can be changed, for instance to show what data is uploaded
- E.g. Relations - NL
- E.g. Relations - NL
- Click on Next
- Drag the CSV file to the 'File' field or choose a file by clicking in the field
- Click on Next
- Click on 'Finish' to upload the file
- Select 'Run EDI Job' to process the file when clicking on 'Finish'
- Select 'Run in background' to run the EDI Job in the background. This enables you to continue using the system while the file is being processed.
Upload Cities
The system features a large database of cities throughout the world. Any missing cities can easily be uploaded using the Cities upload.
Upload Dossiers
With the Upload Dossier function, you can create Dossiers for specific order types, such as inbound, forwarding and outbound.
When the setup has been completed, the correct tables or lines will be mapped to the correct field in the Dossier.
Upload Locations
The Locations upload makes it possible to create multiple pre defined locations in one go. The Locations will be mapped to cities, countries, streets and much more.
Some of the fields for Locations are mandatory, so when filling out the form make sure all the required information is available.
Upload Location Subs
Per location you can define Sub Locations, this can be storage locations or Docks. With this upload you can easily create more Sub Locations in one go.
Upload Products
With the Product upload, you are able to upload multiple products at once. This will help when creating many products, as you don't have to create them one by one.
Information you can define varies from Product number to ADR to Relation specific products.
Upload Relations
In the Logistics Cloud Suite, all types of Relations can be uploaded from one file. The relations can be pre defined with all information, including the address.
To make it easy, you can directly create Locations that are linked to a Relation as well.
Upload Zipcode
If you want to make sure that no incorrect Zipcodes are entered in the system, you can upload a list of zipcodes that you want to use in the system.
