import SAMLTD with no inventory 1

[johnhugh]

Hi,

Is it possible to import SAMLTD but without I/C, PO and O/E?

Or, how do I import a DBdump from a database with no IC, PO, OE into a database which has IC, PO, OE set up, without overwriting what is there already in those modules?

Yes, just delete the relevant REC files.

Thanks tuba.
Can I also dump a company which has no IC, PO, OE and import into another company leaving IC, PO, OE of that company intact and just overwrite GL and the other financial modules?

I tried doing that already and the import works ok.
When I want to open I/C I get:
Internal error. Unknown key reference (ICITEM).
Error occurred when opening view IC0310.
View 'IC0310' is not a valid View ID
Error occurred when activating Sage Accpac Data Source.

Dump both companies and then copy the .REC files of the financial modules you want into the dump folder of the other company with the IC, OE and PO you want to keep. It might be a good idea to load this dump into a test company first to see that you get the results that you want.

If you have the SDK, there's a Deactivation utility.

Thank you.
I got it working now but had to maintain CSAPP.REC of the company with I/C, O/E, P/O activated.
