Chris, I assume that you are trying to interface G/L entries from a
non-MAPICS application to IFM. If this is so, then going through the Legacy
System Bridge is your best bet. You can define an LSB transaction type and
set up many of the defaults for your transaction header. Also, IFM edits LSB
data in the same way that it edits native transactions.

If you try to create a native IFM batch transaction, you have to do all the
internal housekeeping that IFM does when processing LSB records. For
example, you need to assign and increment the transiaction ID that lets IFM
keep transaction header and related detail records together.

If your non-MAPICS application passes invoice or cash information to IFM,
interfacing becomes more complicated. At a minimum, you need to synchronize
vendors/customers, terms, taxes, and banks.
