- Transmitted files must remain in csv format.
- Filenames to be prefixed with a recognisable identifier. Typlically we recommend your abreviated customer code followed by 'ASN'.
EG: 'CUST_ASN'
- Filenames to contain a fixed-length, ideally unique, series of digits following the prefix identifier,
ie: CUST_ASN_########.csv where ######## is any numbers.
Often we recommend the unique identifier of the Receipt Document or a date followed by sequence number,
eg: 31122401 (for 31st Dec. 2024 - 01 [first] file sent).
If the number can be shorter that the agreed typical sequence digits, this needs to be prefixed with an appropriate number of zeros ‘0’ to pad out the length.
- Certain characters are restricted. File names and data must not include:
* Asterisk
“ Double quote (unless fields are quoted)
@ At sign
, Comma in a string – (Unless fields are quoted)
\ Back slash
? Question mark
~ Tilde mark
- Product QTYs must contain no leading zeros.
- Ensure the files are always CSV and not EXCEL or other types.
