Export and Import Formats

Export and Import Formats

It would be really useful if exports and imports were much more closely aligned to make the process easier for both production orders and products. As an example, the import of products requires individual operations per line, but the export has them all on one line, separated by a comma.

Thank you for this idea, @lsubrattee 

I subscribe that the export could be more streamlined so you wouldn't need to manipulate columns. However, beware that if you are aiming at importing products AND operations, you should export the operations list. This export will contain one operation per line, and will make the process much easier. Also, this export will contain operation attributes, such as cycle time, checklists, waste codes, and so on. If I had to do this, I would do the import in two steps:

1) import the products only, as raw materials - here I would include all product "direct" attributes, such as price, families, and unit of measurement

2) import the operations only, with their attributes, such as checklists, work instructions, and so on
