Imports expenses

[prother]

I'm creating a new company and trying to import a file containing all the checks I had written in my old program so I can see them in the check register. I have structured the file containing the checks using the Payments.csv and want them catagorized as expenses ( so I don't need a invoice number). I have set the Detailed Payments field to "No", but the import errors out saying it needs "Invoice Number". What do i have to do so the program allows this import? Is there a better way to do this?

Export the payments file from one of the sample companies. Peachtree Accounting is notorious for saying that a problem with an import file is with one field, when it's really with another. Open the export from the sample company in Excel, then paste your file right below it. Go column by column, and I'll bet you'll find the problem.

Thanks for the advice! I was able to find the problem field and fix it. Thanks
