Import/Export File Layouts

Field names are in order and can be comma delimited or fixed length. Comma delimited strings may optionally be enclosed in double quotes, unless the string contains a comma in which case double quotes are required. All fields must be accounted for even if blank.
Note : While importing the comma delimited file for Policy table, dates should not be enclosed with double quotes.

FIELD TYPE DEFINITIONS:

Type Description Valid Format
C Character Alphanumeric
B Boolean 1= true, 0= false
D Date mm/dd/yyyy
N Numeric Decimal
I Integer No Decimal









For Example
An example Policy import file would look like this: CommaDelimitedExample, FixedWidthExample.

To see an example containing your data, you can perform a policy export in Policy Terminator® with Data Options "Include table name" and "Include field names" not selected. For instructions on how to export out of the Policy Terminator application:click here.

When you create a import file, you must save the file in a comma delimited format (csv). We recommend that the column headers be removed from the csv file otherwise one needs to remember to select the ‘Field names present’ option when importing.
