D-basics creates a log file with events that occur during the extraction and export of information. The following events can occur:

•Value truncated

This event occurs when the size of information that is extracted from the database of an accounting package exceeds the space that is reserved for it in the export files, and only the information that exceeds the available space is dropped.

Example:

'12:51:57 : Value truncated (Field: CompanyName)! (37 -> 32) (VIVAPLANTE Bretagne/Fleurs des 7 Iles -> VIVAPLANTE Bretagne/Fleurs des 7)'

The company name in the database of the accounting package is 37 characters long. Since the export file only provides room for 32 characters, the last 5 characters will be dropped.

•Value dropped

This event occurs when the size of information that is extracted from the database of an accounting package exceeds the space that is reserved for it in the export files and all information is dropped because truncating the information would make it useless.

Example:

12:51:57 : Value dropped (Field: TelNr)! (24 -> 15) (33  254 350 469 ( privé) -> )

The telephone number in the database of the accounting package is 24 characters long. Since the export file only provides room for 15 characters, and a telephone number becomes useless if incomplete, the information will not be included into the export file at all.

•Mandatory field

This event occurs in case required information is not found in the database of the accounting package.

Example:

12:51:57 : DebtorRecord is missing mandatory field <languagecode> (Debtor #20525       )

In this example the language code is missing for debtor 20525.
