Import BOM in Excel file to ARAS

Hi all,

I'm new to ARAS innovator and I'm not sure on how to import BOM in Excel file to ARAS. I have read from forum and they ask to use Batch Loader but I don't know how to do it. Can anyone explain step by step on how to do this.

Thanks.

Regards,

Izzul

  • Hello,

    The concept would be exactly the same, but you'd change the first line of the AML query to add documents instead of Parts. i.e.

    <Item action='add' type='Part'>

    becomes

    <Item action='add' type='Document'>

    You'd also need to update the properties to use the property names on the Document ItemType. I'd recommend checking out our blog that covers the general structure of an AML query. All items in Aras obey the same basic structure, so once you know the foundations of how to build an AML query, you can apply the same techniques to any ItemType.
