Import and export data in the standard import export (SIE) format

  • Article

You can import and export general ledger data according to the standard import export (SIE) format. By specifying SIE dimensions and file types, you can define the level of detail that's covered by import or export transactions. For more information, see Standard Import Export Group.

Note

SIE Audit Files Export is part of the Swedish localization. However, as of version 22.1, the Swedish localization will be based on the W1 base app, and the SIE functionality will be moved to the extension that's installed by default. This functionality is based on the Audit Files Export app that has the preinstalled SIE format. To learn more about this change, see Audit Files Export.

Even if the feature is preinstalled, it isn't enabled by default. Follow these steps to enable the feature.

  1. Select the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature. icon, go to the Feature Management workspace, and then select the related link.
  2. Find the Feature update: Enable using SIE Audit Files Exports feature. Then, in the Enabled for column, select All users.

Set up SIE dimensions

  1. Select the Lightbulb that opens the Tell Me feature. icon, enter Dimensions SIE, and then select the related link.
  2. In the Dimension Code field, select one of the standard dimensions that you want to map.
  3. In the SIE Dimension field, specify the number that you want to assign to the dimension.
  4. In the Selected field, specify whether the dimension should be used when General ledger (G/L) data is imported or exported.

Audit file export document for SIE

The Audit File Export Document page includes a few fields that are specific to SIE. You must set these fields before you begin.

    • Year - End Balances
    • Periodic Balances
    • Object Balances
    • Transactions

    All other fields are set by default, based on your previous setup.
