[4.0.4] - Importing a Many to Many relationship

Posted by Meryk on 15-Jan-2016 05:12

Hello,

I have two objects A and B with a Many to Many Relationship. Object A (M:M) Object B.

I have an excel sheet with data that I imported to object A and same thing for object B.

No I have another excel sheet (2 columns) with the associations between A and B, something like that :

FirstColumn : SecondColumn

A1  :  B1|B2|B3

A2 :   B4|B1|B2

A3 :   B5|B12|B3

where A1,A2,A3 are records of object A and B1,B2,.. records of object B.

What is the best way to import the relationships between these two objects ?

Thank you

Meryem

Hi Merky,

Please follow the steps in the below link

documentation.progress.com/.../index.html

I have tried and i could import the related records successfully.

Here the IDs of the related records are to be available in the Excel sheet i.e instead of B1| B2 in column 2, it should be ID of B1| ID of B2.

Please let me know if the mentioned link doesn't work for you, I could provide detail steps to import the related records.

Thanks,

Shivani.

Hello,

Thank you it is working fine now. This is what I was doing before except that I am using a unique field instead of the Id.

Don't know why it didn't work first time.

Thanks anyways.
