The LSS format is a pipe-separated format encoding landings (sales-notes). It is provided to IMR on a regular basis from FDIR. Column headers are in Norwegian.
Historically, columns in the landings provided from FDIR has been adapted for each data delivery Lately data deliveries has become standardized, but in order to support variants adherence to the standardization is not enforced by this function, unless option 'strict' is selected. If column names does not match specification, but data is otherwise parse-able, a warning will be issued.
If the parameter 'strict' is not TRUE, data types may be inferred from data.
