Del,

I've been exporting general ledger transactions from my filePro application
and my customers have been importing them into Peachtree Complete General
Ledger for years (since 1999, so 13 years).  I think I wrote the interface
for Peachtree Complete version 6.  The export is dead simple.  The
complicated thing is to get your application to create the debits & credits
(with the correct GL Account numbers) that you are going to export.  You put
them in YOUR fp system gl_transactions file (or whatever you want to call
it).  Depending on the complexity of your application, this can be a HUGE
amount of work and testing.  Then periodically you export them from there
into a text file in the layout that Peachtree expects them (which is very
exacting).

So in general I process invoices & cash receipts on the fp system and just
capture the effects on General Ledger in my GL transactions file, then I
export from there to the Peachtree approved import file format, then
Peachtree imports the transactions & posts them to it's GL.

I'll email you directly the file format example.

Regards,

Scott
