Intended Application
For transaction importing in which a single file may contain transactions from multiple locations and/or multiple transaction types. Supports either retail amount->point conversion via Kognitiv Loyalty transaction point formula, and also direct point entry in file.
Notes
- Any delimiter, except for a semi-colon and [tab], can be used to separate columns. The delimiter used is then specified at the time of file import.
- For checkbox value types; 1, Y, YES = True (Checked) || 0, NO, N = FALSE (Unchecked).
- Header record is expected. The first record will not be treated as data.
- Negative values in either the retail value or point amount columns will result in an error.
- If custom field data is supplied, the appropriate custom field external reference must be referenced in the header, in the appropriate column position(s).
- Standard point adjustment transaction type is not supported.
