Hello
we are in the process of upgrading from NAV 2009 til dynamics 365 business central on premise, I am trying to use standard data exchange definition functionality to import a Fiixed flat text File to General Jurnal, in the old days we make Dataport, Report or whatever, it was strate forward.

My setup for the Datamangmant definition is

General
Kode : ABC
Name : Abc Data
File type : Fixed Text
Type : Generic Import
Column Separator : Custom





Line Definition
Line type: Detail
Code :
Name :STANDARD


Column Definitions

COLUMN NO. NAME DATA TYPE DATA FORMAT DATA FORMATTING CULTURE LENGTH DESCRIPTION PATH NEGATIVE-SIGN IDENTIFIER

1 Post Number Text 3 No Right
2 Account Name Text 3 No Right


and then theres the mapping wil Tabel 81 Gen. Jornal Line


My question is: Is there XMLport, Repport an Codeunit for importing a generic fixed flat text files, or its something i have to develope. what are the rouls, i couldnt finde any sourse that explaines he Data Exchange Defintion in detales (Other than what i can finde on microsoft homepage)
