When importing a landing or production report to eLandings, the XML document need not have ever data item populated. Attributes should not be provided since they are populated by eLandings based on element data. For example, the species code element only needs its numeric code, such as "200". The name attribute should not be provided, eLandings knows that "200" is "Halibut". If attributes are entered they will be ignored. Therefore if you provide the species code as "200", and give the species_code name attribute as "Pollock" eLandings will identify the species as 200 Halibut. The species_code name will be ignored, and you will not get an error message that 200 does not equal Pollock.

The following identifies which elements are required, as well as ones that should not be populated.

However, if a place holder fish ticket number is specified in the import file, and is used on line items, then the import process will replace the number consistently. This allows the allocations of line items to CFEC permits in the import file to be preserved even though new fish ticket numbers are generated.
