Data Import
Data import is the transfer of structured information from external sources into SAP Business One. Its purpose is to load data into the system in a controlled way instead of entering it manually. For the import to work reliably, content, format and field mapping must be prepared correctly. Only then can master data remain consistent and the database be kept free of incorrect entries. Data import creates a reliable basis for downstream processes and supports a consistent data foundation across the company. This allows new information to be made available more quickly without creating unnecessary entry effort or reducing the quality of the data used in the system.
