LPTS will not create time sheets, just time sheet entries so clients should ensure there are exiting time sheets for the period to be loaded. If a time sheet cannot be located, the LPTS will fail to load that record.
At line 7 removed 4 lines
LPTS may create time sheets depending on how the interface format is defined in [IDIF]. In order to have LPTS create new time sheets, there must be an entry in [IDIF] for: PTSE.ACT_DIF_PRE_INSERT_CREATE_TS. This will force the system to call the new logic to create a new time sheet, if necessary.
If the PTSE.ACT_DIF_PRE_INSERT_CREATE_TS line is missing from [IDIF] LPTS will not create time sheets, just time sheet entries so clients should ensure there are exiting time sheets for the period to be loaded. If a time sheet cannot be located, the LPTS will fail to load that record.

LPTS will respect any date formats that are set up in the [INPT DATE FORMAT|INPT DATE FORMAT(System_Preference)] preference in [IMST]. If no format has been defined, then the LPTS will respect any ddmm type formats i.e.:ddmmyyyy, ddmmmyyyy, dd-mmm-yyyy

Within the [IMST] screen, the administrator must define where the Extract and Load files are located and where the load functions are to write the exception files to. These locations are used by the functions to create and retrieve information. The customer can modify these values to represent any directory on their system, which is convenient.

During the load process, all non-fatal exceptions as well as the number of insertions and updates (by table) are logged in the execution run logs. After the load process completes, a report is written to a text file indicating the number of records read, number of records bypassed, number of records processed, number of records that were bypassed because an identical one already existed in the table, and number of records updated/inserted by table. The report will display all non-fatal business exceptions encountered during the load with a record number indicating for which record the exception occurred. The report will also display the amount of time that was taken for the load process to complete.

There are 2 tiers of exceptions that can be generated during the load process. The first tier involves extracting and building data from the source file and the second involves processing the extracted data. However, there will only be ONE exception for each failed load. Basically, if the record fails to build data correctly, the program will not bother loading it so you will never see 2 exceptions for a single failed record load.
