Will Data load support for Flex filed attributes
Would like to know the feasibility of Flex fileds attributes loading using Data load tool, rather than a Import methodology.
I don’t believe Data Load is designed to handle the flex fields as the DL tables are mapped directly to the entities.
Import methodology or sdk approach both should work.
DataLoad does not support loading flex attributes. I have no idea if it ever will, but I do know that there will be no major updates to the tool any time soon. I simply put the flex values into a separate table (with the associated item/change/etc. number) and then write an SQL script to manually load the values. Import also works very nicely, as would an SDK program.
