Determine and Correct Errors in Imported Transactions Before Posting
When you import transactions, the system checks each piece of information to make sure it is in an acceptable format, required fields are not empty, and so on. If the system detects errors during the import process, an error report is automatically generated, and a message appears that indicates the number of errors.
NOTE: Certain information, such as dates, is required to post, but is not necessary to import. Be sure to print an Edit Report and review it carefully before you post imported transactions.
Follow the on-screen instructions to print the Import Error Report. This report will show you exactly which transactions contain errors and the type of error. You need to correct any errors before you can post (see Posting Payments and Charges). We also recommend you run the Edit Report to help determine any errors that were missed during the import process. There are two ways you can correct errors:
Correct Errors in the External File
While it might be possible to correct some of the errors on the Error Report in the Denali transactions batch file, we recommend you clear the batch, correct the errors in the external file, and then import again.
Correct Errors in an Imported Transaction Batch
You can correct errors after they have been imported into the transaction batch by editing the transactions in Denali. Refer to Correcting Errors Prior to Posting for information on editing transactions or Deleting Transactions Prior to Posting for deleting transactions in a batch.
Once all of the transactions are imported, verified, and any errors corrected, you can post them.
