Adding the AP Import and Export Wizards

The AP Import and Export wizards that are used to transfer data between Aptify and an Accounts Payable (AP) system are only available for the Payments and Product Cost Details services by default. If you have created AP Transaction Sources for additional entities, follow the steps below to add the AP Wizards to the appropriate entity:

  1. Open the Entities record for the service to which you want to add the AP wizards.
  2. Click the Configuration > Actions tab.
  3. Open a new Actions sub-type record to add the AP Export Wizard.
  4. Enter a AP Export Wizard in the Name field.
    • This is the tool tip text that will appear when a user places the mouse cursor over the wizard's icon.
       
  5. If your organization is using Localization to translate different areas of the system to the local culture for a set of users, specify the culture string for this wizard name in the Name Culture String field. See Using Localization Administration for more information.
  6. Enter AptifyAPWizards in the Action Assembly field.
  7. Enter Aptify.Applications.Accounting.AP.ExportWizard in the Action Class field.

  13. Configure the security settings to determine who can run the wizard.
    • If the wizard should be available for all users, leave the Allow Everyone to Run option selected.
