Hi Malcolm - I am no expert in Cloud POS - have not tried to import items before - but have you checked out the help files? https://help.reckon.com/article/pp50ue79ff-other
String types mean text... decimal types are numbers... so the error sounds like you are trying to import text characters into a field that is expecting numbers only?
Did you download the template provided by Cloud POS first and then enter data... any pricing etc - should not have $ signs - should just be numbers?
if you want to email me the list you are trying to import - I am happy to have a quick look? Send to linda@abcomputing.com.au1 -
Linda your a star if I had only seen that help file from the outset this would have been done weeks ago. Thank you very much1
