The first character of a row defines the row type and drives the processing of the row. If a comment token was defined, all rows beginning with the given character are skipped.

The following row types are supported:

  • H - Header row
  • I - Item row
  • S - Supplier row
  • R - Resource row
  • T - Text row

Every other first character, except the comment token, generates an error message.
