→ This function is available in airfreight/seafreight import and export as well as transport.

Update house files:

Enter data into the sub files:

In the upper entry section, enter the data for the house files.

  • All fields form the upper section that are filled with data are written into the house files.

  • Blank fields are not transferred into the files.

  • Blank entry fields are ignored.

  • There is no modification (clearning of fields) in the files.

This allows you to specifically update single fields.
The context menu entry Clear fields will clear all entry fields that are pre-assigned from the consol.

Use the checkboxes to exclude specific files from the update.
The data are only transferred into activated files and the consol file.

The entered data are always also transferred into the consol file!
