I want to dataport the records of CUSTOMER from Excel file to NAV 4.
It’s is the right way to,just create a dataport for Customer and dataport the data from excel file? or there is a right way?Thanks :smiley:

This is “a” right way. There are also others.

Important is that you use VALIDATE on the field to be sure that the values you import into some fields exist in other tables. (E.G. if you import “Customer Posting Group”, the value should exist in it’s table)

OK…Thanks very much.
