Remarks

The file to be imported must contain all the columns mentioned above. The order of the columns is compulsory.

The name of the fields does NOT determine the content.

The optional fields must be in the file, but can be left empty.

Some programs can generate NULL values in their exports. This value is not always supported during the import. The only way to know if it is possible to exploit the files created by your program is to test them yourself.

The payments are by default imported in status "Waiting". If the type of the Payment method is "Cash", the payment will be imported with status "OK".

The compensations are not manageable via the import file.

The exchange rate difference is calculated only if there is a rate exchange difference between the document and the payment.
