We have to chnage the entire menu price. Is there a way to export all our menu items in Excel or CSV, change the price and import it back?
thanks, guys.

Here is what I use to export to CSV file which you can then open in Excel:

Moregelen,
Thank you so much. I think this will work.
As being new to this.
Is this a batch file I need to run?
If yes, where do i run this file from, C:\MICROS folder?
Can you please expand on this?
We have Micros 3700 5.4.1.
thanks
 
Ah. I would just run it from dbisql (start, run, dbisql).

Login in using username custom, password custom, selecting the ODBC data source Micros.
 
Make sure you have a folder called C:\temp.

The first script will create the CSV file in that folder.

Make your changes, and put the updated file in C:\temp. Make sure you DO NOT CHANGE THE SEQ NUMBER - only change prices, the last 10 columns.


Run the second script once you have put the updated file in C:\temp and it will update all of the items. You CAN change the name of the item, and the script will update it, though only name 1.
 
Hi Moregelen,
here is what I did.
I connected to DB by "dbisql"
pasted your script and execute. That brought up the error.
Please see attached screenshot.
thanks again for the help.

... are you sure you pasted what I posted? Your screenshot is not even close to what I posted.
 
Moregelen,
Please ignore the post. I am not paying attention.
sorry.
thanks
 
Moregelen,
I was able to export to TXT and then converted to CSV.
Now, I change the prices in CSV file, save it as TXT and import back.
Does this sound right?
thanks
 
File should have been saved as a CSV file automatically. Just edit the prices and make sure when you save it you keep it a csv file. Excel will try and get you to make it into an excel file. Then just run the second part when done editing.
 
mxap,

You should really consider having someone familiar with SQL help you with this. You have the potential to mess up your entire database, at least the menu items. It seems like you are a bit lost. If you have someone show you the first time you should be able to handle it in the future.

 
Thanks, guys.
I am trying this on test server. If it works only then will try on live server.
Thanks , again.
