Suppliers Import

Hi All,

I'm going to develop a program in R12 to import / Create / Update suppliers, supplier sites, addresses and bank account (of supplier).

I'm planning to do it in this way:

1) Load data into these interface tables: AP_SUPPLIERS_INT, AP_SUPPLIER_SITES_INT and  AP_SUP_SITE_CONTACT_INT

2) Submit Open Interface Import for Suppliers, Sites and contacts.

3) Create Bank, Branch & Account Info by using APIs defined in this package: IBY_EXT_BANKACCT_PUB

I've some questions here:

1) Are these enough steps to create suppliers, supplier sites and bank info ?

2) Will HZ_Locations be populated automatically by standard import or do I need to create locations through APIs ?
