How to Import Programatically a file or an XML string in Acumatica that supports import XML - acumatica

I just wanted to know if this is possible via code, I think of as a post-installation of my customization which needs some imported XML that cannot be included in the Customization Project objects. I looked up on Customization Code Plug-in, this is the solution but I do not know where to start to manipulate the File Upload or Import an XML then I pass a string variable to make it readable for the screen to accept the Import XML and just save the data.
Thanks!

I would consider just including in customization necessary xml staff, as file. Then in Customization plugin just read from that xml, and persist it wherever needed in db.

Transform XML to PDF using XSLT with nodejs

I have xml file that contains remote xsl stylesheet link. I need to convert that xml to pdf? I have tried Prince but it is not adding desired style. Is there any other package that i can use for this purpose?
You can try with package (https://www.npmjs.com/package/xml-pdf) in this you can set your custom template also for design purpose. I have committed a GitHub repo for you. https://github.com/vivek9716/convert_pdf please check if this is helpful.

How can I use python to edit docx and/or doc file tags on a windows system?

I have a folder with a large amount of .doc and .docx files, I would like to develop a python script to edit the tags of each file so I can find a file in the folder using the tags - thus making my life a little easier.
I am unsure of how to even start and was hoping someone could point me to a library or provide some sample code to help me get started.
I am not sure if the file extenstion matters because this seems to be a windows property (right-click file > Properties > Details > Tags > type in tags) but if the extension matters I do can change all the files to be .docx
The python-docx package provides methods to access most of the metatdata in a word file. The class docx.opc.coreprops.CoreProperties in specific allows you to modify author, category, etc. I didn't see tags mentioned but if you do some more research i'm sure you can find it.
docx.opc.coreprops.CoreProperties.keywords can be used to update doc file tags.

trying to import data in pimcore from xml file

We are trying to import as XML file having some objects in PIMCORE. The file is having around 4000 records and size is around 4mb. I want to know how to import data in pimcore from XML file?
You need to write some CLI importer by your own for handle it. Pimcore don't have any feature right now to import XML files. Anyway, there is not possible to do it automatically, a cause of data complex.
You could use the Import Definitions Plugin for Pimcore: https://github.com/w-vision/ImportDefinitions
It does easily import XML files as pimcore objects.
The following data types can also be imported by the Import Definitions Plugin:
CSV
JSON
SQL
You can get the plugin via composer:
composer require w-vision/import-definitions
You might need to install the plugin within the Pimcore Extension Manager.

Expression Engine - import member data

I am finishing a site for a client and they want to import their customer database. Is there an effective way to import such data? I have used AJW Datagrab for importing data, but this is different.
Any suggestions?
I noticed that EE has an xml import template is there a handy way to convert a spreadsheet to an xml file that would fit that format?
Thanks.
ExpressionEngine 1.x used to come bundled with three native first-party Import Utilities:
pMachine Pro Import Utility
Movable Type Import Utility
Member Import Utility
With the rewrite of ExpressionEngine 2.x, only the following made the conversion:
Member Import Utility
You can access it within the Control Panel at: CP Home > Tools > Utilities > Import Utilities.
The first-party Member Import Utility allows you to import members from other systems into ExpressionEngine, in the following two formats:
Import from XML File - Allows you to import members from an XML file
in ExpressionEngine's Member XML format.
Convert Delimited Text to XML - Allows you to create an
ExpressionEngine Member XML file from another application's delimited
text file.
If you're looking to import more than just Members into your ExpressionEngine database, DataGrab by Andrew Weaver of Brand New Box in the UK is your best choice.
DataGrab allows you to import data from RSS/ATOM feeds, CSV files and XML files. Other datatypes can be added.
Among DataGrab's many uses are:
Importing initial content into ExpressionEngine from other CMS's (WordPress, Tumblr, etc.)
Aggregating data from your various websites from around the
internet, such as Twitter or Flickr (using RSS feeds or APIs)
Keeping product stock or price details synchronised with an external
system
You can also harness EE's powerful, built-in functionality (flexible templating, search, archives), DataGrab makes your data easily available as a channel entry.
The developer of DataGrab provides a walk thru on using CSV imports with DataGrab, perfect for use with Excel documents or a Google Docs Spreadsheets.
Surprisingly, the once-popular Solspace Importer still hasn't made the conversion to EE2.
A bit late, but for the record Solspace Importer is now ee2.x compatible. The big advantage over DataGrab is Importer's ability to call with JSON.

Schema/DTD of PowerPoint

I am looking for a way to add some meta-infromation to PowerPoint files. Specifically, I want to add annotation to bullets and slides.
Are there any XML attributes which can be added to the elements (of the slideX.xml file) without invalidating it? In other words, where can I find the schema/DTD of the slideX.xml files?
"Best Practice" is to download the Open XML SDK 2.0 and use the tool DocumentReflector
Create the document you would like to have and then load that pptx into the DocumentReflector and check how to generate that code....

Annotations to slide is that Notes on the slide?!?! Then you need to create a NotesSlide

Yeah, you can use ExtLst and Ext which is basically adding your own extension to PresentationML, to "tag" just about anything at all in SlideX.xml. You can read more about it here.
