Not all of the fields in this list appear in every Import File window. Please refer to only those fields that appear in the Import File window you`re using.

Import File Format

Choose whether the file you're importing data from uses a tab-delimited or comma-separated file format.

First Record is

Choose whether the first record in the import file is a header record or a data record.

If you choose Header Record, MYOB Accounting Plus will assume that the first record in the import file doesn't contain any valid MYOB Accounting Plus data, and won't attempt to import this information.

If you choose Data Record, MYOB Accounting Plus will assume that the first record in the import file contains valid data (regardless of whether it does or doesn't), and will attempt to import this information.

Duplicate Records

Select whether to reject duplicate records or update existing records with duplicate records' information, or add duplicate records to your MYOB Accounting Plus company file.

The options you have in this field depend upon the type of information you want to import. If you're importing accounts or item records, you can either reject any duplicate information that exists in the import file or update the existing MYOB Accounting Plus records' information with the import file's information. If you're importing customer, supplier, employee or personal contact records, you also have the option of adding the duplicate records to your company file.
