C Import Mass Data into Manufacturing Systems

You can use the Bill of Material Revisions - Z File program (P3002Z) to run Bill of Material Revisions (P3002) in batch mode and accept planning bill data from the Bill of Material Master - Z File Header (F3002HZ) and Detail (F3002DZ) files. This allows you to process mass amounts of data from an outside source easily and efficiently using existing programs to validate the data.

You can process any number of records to add, change, or delete. You also have the advantage of:

• Data selection to limit the records you want to process.

• Processing options that allow you to choose the version of the interactive program to process the records.

• Error report printing.

See:

• Import Using Z File Processing in the JD Edwards World Technical Tools Guide for detailed information about Z file processing.

• Overview to Import/Export in the JD Edwards World Technical Tools Guide for information about importing data into the system.
