Warning

If the header is not correctly configured according to the contents of the file then the data will be imported incorrectly. For instance if the thousand separator is marked as space (32) and the file contains thousands displayed as 1,000 then flex.bi will read this data as 1. So if your data is grossly inaccurate double check the header of your file, because this is most likely the cause.

For some versions of Standard ERP files may be exported with wrong thousand separator code in the header ( manually or using Timed events package). To fix export with Times events with correct format on this version make sure you are using Export (not suported yet)  option.

If there are problems with your exported data formats, contact your HansaWorld consultant.
