When you create or update items using the CSV import feature, note the following:
-
The CSV import feature does not add or update the Item Additional Lot Fields sublist information.
-
If Enable Lot Auto Numbering is set to No, the Lot Number Format and Initial Sequence Number values are ignored.
-
If Enable Lot Auto Numbering is set to Yes, but lot number format does not contain sequence number, the Initial Sequence Number value is ignored.
-
When updating an item, note the following. If there is a value in the Initial Sequence Number field, any value for the field in the CSV file is ignored.
When importing non lot inventory and assembly items using CSV import, the fields in the Lot Numbering subtab appear in the Field Mapping page. However, any data for these fields is ignored when importing.
