Capability
The 'Equipment Catalog Import' allows Users to update and Import records into the Equipment Catalog grid.
Matches On
The Equipment Catalog Import matches on Part Number. If there is no match, the record from the Import will INSERT. If there is a match, the remaining fields can UPDATE.
Important Notes
Fields that are mapped with Column Mappings or Conditional Logic and are left blank are saved as NULL (this will overwrite existing data for updates).

Child Tables:
Default Charges
By default when inserting default charges the first occurrence of a default charge in the import will clear that records default charges and insert the new default charge. Subsequent inserts of default charges for that import will be appended to the record.
Updating - Default Charges cannot be updated. In order to update a default charge you will need to import all the default charges for that Equipment Catalog.
Inserting - Importing a default charge will clear existing default charges as explained above and insert the new record. If you want to append a default charge to the record without clearing the existing default charges, set the Default Charges Clear flag to false.
