The GLA Import uses the full GLA Account string to match against any existing GLAs. If no match is found, the record from the Import File will INSERT. If a match is found, the other fields of the Import can UPDATE.

Fields

Format

Datatype is String

Formats can not be more than 14 characters in length
The default GLA will be what any picker or grid should default to if a GLA is not explicitly selected

GLA Account

Required

Datatype is Hierarchical String.

CANNOT be Updated.

A combination of all the GLA Components in a single string with individual Components separated by the value stored in GLA_CONCATENATOR.

Multiple levels of a hierarchy "path" (like Locations, GLAs, and Catalogs) are connected by the HIERARCHYPATH_SEPARATOR string. The default value for this string is right angle-brace (>) with a space on either side: " > "

For example, Site A > Building B > Room C.
