POS Usage Export Overview

This document will contain information specific to the POS Usage export template. For general information about the Data Extraction Service and it's API please see the general purpose documentation

Job Run Parameters

This template supports filtering against the DBGen range of finalised ZReports. Only sales data belonging to ZReports in the specified DBGen range will considered during a jobrun.

Parameter Definitions

Parameter Type Description
DBGenFrom Number (required) The (inclusive) start of the DBGen range which will be used to filter ZReports and their sales data.
DBGenTo Number (optional) The (inclusive) end of the DBGen range which will be used to filter ZReports and their sales data. If unspecified the current latest DBGen from the server will be used.
TradingDate DateTime (optional) The specific trading date to rexport historical data

TradingDate Usage

TradingDate is designed to be used independent of DBGen range filtering. Specify EITHER a DBGen range OR a TradingDate.

Auto Value Considerations

DBGenFrom supports auto values which (when executing an auto value job run) will update to the value supplied at DBGenTo (or the latest DBGen from the sales data). When DBGenFrom is set to use an auto value it will use the value of the auto value + 1 to ensure that repeated executions will never export already exported sales data.

Output Files
