  • 1.  Accuterm FTD documentation - formula question

    Posted 05-09-2022 18:31
    Is the accuterm documentation available online here in the Rocket site?

    I am attempting to FTD data into a spreadsheet where a given column is a calculation.

    Example column a divided by column b placed into column c.

    I can put the expression into the data field I will download and the expression executes BUT the data filled in the excel sheet is the result. I want the formula to be loaded into that column, not the result. The display should look the same BUT with the expression in the field, where changing column a or b alters column c automatically.

    Does anyone know how this could be accomplished?

    I checked the online access to the documentation and although accuterm (and jbase) appear on the search, when you go to the linked documentation page nothing is present. I will drop a note to the internal teams to see if they can get this sorted out so that you can download it.

    Kathleen,

    There is no separate documentation for AccuTerm FTD that I am aware of.

    All documentation is supplied with the product and is available via the AccuTerm "Help" menu – "Help -> Documentation -> User Manual" and therefore already downloadable.

    In the User Manual, there is a section called "MultiValue File Transfer" and a link to downloading files. From that section there are also links to "configuration" settings and "options".

    Hope that helps.

    If not, then an email to support@zumasys.com would currently be required for further support.

    Regards,

    Thanks Mike for the information. I have already tried those two places and
    still have questions, it's in my nature :) I was hoping someone would step
    up who uses this feature extensively so that I could ask my q;s and learn
    some tricks. Doesn't seem like that's going to happen. Having used
    Wintegrate for so long, this is a REALLY great feature in Accuterm.

    Thanks again!

    This response was recently posted to the AccuTerm (Asent) forum by Pete Schellenbach and is replicated here :

    I was able to use FTD to create an Excel worksheet with a formula. Here's what I did, so you can try it.
    Using the PROD.SAMPLE sample data file in the ACCUTERM account, I added a new dictionary item named FORMULA with an Excel formula as a constant:
    :CT DICT PROD.SAMPLE FORMULA
    DICT PROD.SAMPLE FORMULA
    01: S
    02: 0
    03: OUNCES
    04:
    05:
    06:
    07:
    08: A;'=INDIRECT("C" & ROW())*16'
    09: R
    10: 12
    Here is the FTD command:
    :FTD

    AccuTerm Data Transfer Utility


    (S)end, (R)eceive, (C)onfigure, (O)ptions, (H)elp or (E)xit ? S

    File transfer protocol: (A)SCII or (K)ERMIT ? K

    Enter source (PICK) file name: PROD.SAMPLE

    Enter source (PICK) item list: *

    Enter target (DOS) file name (d:\directory\file.ext): C:\TMP\TEST.XLSX

    Attributes to transfer: UPC DESC GROSS.WGT FORMULA

    Generate Header Record (<Y>/N/C): Y

    Explode MultiValue Fields (Y/<N>): N

    Converting TEST.XLSX to Excel file format... done.

    Transfer status: Successful transfer.
    Transferred 4 items, 254 bytes.
    The Excel worksheet accepts the formula in column D, and changing the value in column C causes column D to recalculate.
