United Stationers Interface

United Stationers Unitape Interface Option

Simple Accounting is available with an optional interface to the United Stationers Unitape on-line ordering system. This interface allows you to:

1. Import the Unitape CD product list into Simple Accounting, enabling you to place orders using United Stationers’ product IDs.

2. Electronically transmit those orders to United Stationers for processing, using their UniCom on-line ordering system.

 

Procedure

1. To begin, go to the Inventory menu and select [Import File To Products].

2. When prompted for a file to import, enter:

 E:UNITAPE.01

(Substitute the drive letter of your CD for ‘E’ — if your CD drive is D: for example, you would enter D:UNITAPE.01.)

Notes:

1. The import may require as much as an hour to run the first time in order to load all of United Stationers products (there are at least 36,000) so plan on doing the import when you are not going to need your computer for a while!

2. Subsequent imports go much faster, since the initial records have already been imported.

3. No other users may be logged into SAFE while the import is in progress.
