Bridge

[TGDonovan]

Anyone else having trouble with the Bridge. Starting yesterday, it is now asking if you want to replace the client number. Never happened like that in the past. If you say yes it deletes everything and just puts the bridge information. If you say no it doesn't do anything, doesn't import the bridge information.

I usually only see the "overwrite" question with a Pro Forma file; Bridge files typically work ONLY if the client already exists in the database.

Did you save the files with extension ".?B#" (where ? is the module letter & # is the terminal digit of the year), or as ".?P#" (same coding)?
  P are Pro forma files, and B are Bridge.

If you have ClientNum.iP1 and ClientNum.iB1 in the same directory, the P/pro forma will process first (ALL pro formas first), before the first of the B/bridge files.
