Understanding the Import Process

You can import information from an external text file to the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system. When you import a text file, the system creates a batch in the Text Processor Header table (F007101) and the Text Processor Detail Table (F007111). To move the information from the Text Processor Header and Detail tables into other tables in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, you must run a batch program that has been designed to retrieve data from tables F007101 and F007111.

After you import text, the system displays the new batch in the detail area on the Work With Text Batches form. A value of 5 (Unprocessed/Inbound) in the Status Flag field indicates that the batch has been imported successfully.
