Import an Account Budget

To import an account budget:

  1. In the Home window on the File menu, select Import/Export, and then Import Records.
  2. Select Updated account budgets and click Next.
  3. If you want to back up your company, click Back Up. Click Next when the back up completes.
  4. Enter the location of the file you want to import, or click Browse to locate it, and click Next. Sage 50 Accounting only accepts .TXT or .CSV files that contain the layout and format specific for Sage 50 Accounting.
  5. Click OK and then click Finish to close the wizard.
  6. Note: The account number and department (Sage 50 Premium Accounting) segments must match your Sage 50 Accounting data. If it does not match, it will be skipped during import.

    If any accounts or departments cannot be imported, they are identified in the Import Progress Summary displayed on your desktop screen. You can print this summary and adjust your import data as required.
