  • Save the file to 'C:\EPC' and give it a filename of 'ORDER.TXT'.
  • You can now close the basket as we are done with Triumph Online.

Platinum Operation

Having selected your parts and saved them into the 'ORDER.TXT' file, you can now import these parts into Platinum.

The import of the items can be done from any point in Platinum where you are adding a list of items, and the same method is used in all places.

This example uses Workshop to explain how it is done, but the same process is used whenever you are inputting a list of stock codes.

  • Go to " Workshop "Workshop Diary"".
  • Search for a relevant workshop job.
  • Select the [Invoice Items] tab.
  • Press <Alt+F6>. The items and quantities saved in the 'ORDER.TXT' will be loaded into the job.
  • If you have not stocked any of the items previously, you will see the Shadow File pop-up. Copy the items as usual.
  • Check that the items loaded are correct.

Once you have successfully imported the 'ORDER.TXT' file, it will be deleted to avoid you importing the items twice!
