"I thought I read recently were Mapics had created a command that would 
allow the ability to upload via offline files without using the offline 
file import program. It was more simaliar to something they use in COM. 
Does anyone know anything about this? "
Jeff, I have this saved in my inbox because I want to experiment with it 
later.  It talks about command OLIMTRN:

Solution Information
Title:SH82066 Process IM Offline transactions automatically
ID:16sql50611
Domain:mapicsl
Solution Statements
goal: Process IM Offline transactions automatically
goal: Process inventory transactions outside of XA
goal: API to update offline IM transactions 
goal: Automated job submission for offline inventory transactions
goal: Created OLIMTRN command for offline IM transactions 
goal: SH82066 - Need to create an API to run "IM Transaction Processing - 
Entry from Offline Files" function outside of Infor XA (like IM OLMITM) 
fact: IM
fact: CAS
fact: XAR6
fact: XAR7
fact: Offline Transaction Processing 
cause: Inventory Management has been enhanced to provide Automated Job 
Submission of an inventory offline transaction batch.    A new Application 
Programming Interface command has been added - OLIMTRN.
note: Link to documentation for using the OLIMTRN command (link).    
note: After calling the OLIMTRN command, your program can call the 
PRTIMTXR command to print the transaction register. 
note: When this enhancement was originally delivered, the newly created IM 
offline transaction batch was left in 'Suspended' status, which would 
require manual intervention to set the status to 'Closed' before the batch 
could be processed by the PRTIMTXR command.  APAR 82124 was opened to 
correct this oversight.  A new parameter  -- Close/Suspend batch (BCHSLT) 
--  has been added to the OLIMTRN command, allowing you to set the batch 
to Closed status.  SH82066 has been updated to incorporate this change. If 
the BCHSLT parameter does not function properly because you had downloaded 
SH82066 before this function was added, please download SH82066 again and 
reapply. 
fix: Download and apply SH82066. This fix must be permanently applied. 
This fix may require prerequisites, so please review the cover letter. The 
following modules are included in this fix:  Name Type =========   ==== 
OLIMTRN *CMD    AMIMENU *FILE    M6CMDPMT *MSGF AMIC30 *PGM AMIPEA *PGM 
AMI3C *PGM After applying this fix, these modules will be at the following 
levels: XAR6 PTF 8710 XAR7 PTF 6255
