Working with duration fields in Data Load Spreadsheet

When Generating Spreadsheet with the Export Data Checkbox for duration field, data is exported in milliseconds. For same data to be imported back to application it has to be converted to  #y#M#w#d#h#m#s format for it to pass validation. There is no easy way to convert milliseconds to required format for import of same data to application.

In most situation users would even not know what they are looking at and how to convert it to acceptable format.

Benefit is to all users working with data load manager.

 

Data should be exported in format that can be imported back to application or additional macro should be added to xlsm template for user to convert duration to acceptable format for import - #y#M#w#d#h#m#s
