# Adjustment File Format

Before adjustments can be loaded from a file, the file must be in a specific format. The data must be comma delimited, with no header or trailer records. The fields are in the following order:

- customer account number - alphanumeric
- adjustment amount - currency
- adjustment type code - numeric (as set up in Data Management)
- adjustment date - mm/dd/yyyy
- description (not required)) - alphanumeric
- service number - numeric (if applicable)
- associated invoice number - numeric (if applicable)
- check number - numeric (if applicable)
- batch number - numeric (not required)
- invoice category ID - numeric (not required)

This is an example of an adjustment file.
