Export Reference Number

This is the number AMS360 assigns to each exported certificate holder. It is used to match updates and deletions to holders when the list is imported back into AMS360.

It is critical that the number not be changed or deleted for existing holders, unless the holder is no longer needed. For new holders the field can be left blank.

Vertafore recommends hiding the Export Reference Number column in the spreadsheet so it is not inadvertently modified. Use the following steps to do this:

  1. Locate the exported file. The default location is C:\Documents and Settings\(username of the person logged into the workstation)\Local Settings\Temp\AMS\Data Schedules\Export Files.

  2. Double-click the name of the file to open it in Microsoft Excel.

  3. Select the Reference Number column by clicking on the column letter.

  4. Click Format > Column > Hide. The column is no longer visible.

  5. Save the file as an Excel Spreadsheet file (.xls).

You can now email the file to your customer. When the customer returns the file, open it again and unhide the column.

 

Tips about saving the Excel spreadsheet

The exported file is in a csv format. This file is a simple format that can be read by any spreadsheet program. The limitation to this type of file is that you cannot save formats. Therefore, if you format the data to send to your customer, you should select File>Save As and choose Microsoft Excel Workbook (xls) format.

For a visual overview see the Show Me:Export Data Schedules

What's Next?

When the customer returns the updated information, see Data Schedule Import for instructions on importing the file.
