How To: Importing the Third Party File to Tyler (02-08-12-11)
Overview
This tutorial describes how to import the file received from a third party routing company into Tyler.
Step-by-Step
- Click the folder button to the right of the ‘Import PC File’ field.
- Select the import file from your computer.
- Check the ‘Update Order Header Route Info’ box if you want to update the Route, Delivery Date and Time fields on the Order Maintenance screen (02-08-02) with the information from the file.
- The Time field is updated with the Stop Number, not the actual time of day.
- If you use Centralized Delivery or manually update the order header information (through Order Maintenance), it is recommended that you do not use the ‘Update Header File’ option.
- If the Date, Route, Stop Number, Time Start, and Time Stop information from the file should be stored in a Tyler side file, check the ‘Update Side File Route Info’ box.
- The side file is used to sort the orders for printing (Packing Sheets and Standard/Long Method Invoices).
