Well, I have yet to learn how OpenERP really works :~) But I thought CSV is the way to go, because it is already there. CSV is the only import option, for export there is CSV and Excel. Also, the data I like to import is already in LibreOffice Calc, which makes CSV easy to create. So my question is: (How) can I create a CSV file acceptable for OpenERP, when the exported CSV looks like this: "id","action","name","employee_id/id" "__export__.hr_attendance_1","Sign In","2012-07-18 08:00:00","__export__.hr_attendance_2_13" Cheers > As an example you can see the file 'addons/base/base_data.xml' in the > official addons. > > Regards > > Damián > > On Sun, Jul 22, 2012 at 11:47 AM, W.
