Possible errors when importing purchase invoices, purchase quotes, sales invoices and/or sales orders

These are the possible reasons for getting any of these error messages when importing transactions into Sage 50 Account:  

1. The import file (extension .IMP) you are using does not have the proper format.
   • Refer to the Related Resources section additional article for more information about the format of the import file.
2. The transaction type is not enabled in the Sage 50 Accounting company.
   • To enable the feature, from the Home Window in Simply Accounting, go to Setup, Settings, Company, Features, make sure the type of transaction you want to import is checked.
3. The dates in the import file do not match the fiscal year dates in Sage 50 Accounting.
   • Open the import file in Notepad and make the necessary changes.
