Importing Journals through DTW

Forum,
I am having difficulties importing a journal through DTW. I get the initial message that it's unbalanced. I have performed a SUM of the Debit/Credit columns and these agree. I have also checked the field format and checked the decimal places in case it's something with Excel and rounding, however there isn't anything noticable and there' all set to 2 decimal places. The previous month a similiar journal was imported successfully. I have compared the two files and there's nothing visable in terms of differences.
I have then tried importing the journal in smaller batches (currently 201 rows) the DTW wizard the reports that the ContraAct AccountCode is invalid. I have checked this account code exists in SAP which it does and it isn't ticked as being a control account.
Has anyone come across this issue before?
Regards,
Juan

Juan,
You may want to use an editor like Notepad (a simple editor) in Windows to look at the file and verify that there are not any weird or special characters that are in the file that you are trying to import.

hi,
Check below note.
Note 878906 - How to import User Defined Tables via the DTW
Summary
Symptom
You need to import data into a User Defined Table(UDT) with the Data transfer Workbench(DTW)
Other terms
UDT, User Defined Table, import, data, DTW
Reason and Prerequisites
Need for information
Solution
You create, for example, a User Defined Table(UDT) called "UDT" with the following fields
ZIPCODE
ADDRESS
In the database you actually have 4 fields since Code and Name are created automatically when creating a user defined table. When filling a UDT you must ensure that you fill these fields also and bear in mind that Code needs to be a unique number.
Code
Name
ZIPCODE
ADDRESS
To fill a UDT with information you would need a template something like this (It is also attached)
Code,Name,U_ZIPNAME,U_STREET
code,name,,
0,0,12345,Street 1
1,1,12346,Street 2
With the DTW you can then select the @UDT table from the Object Type list in step 2 of the DTW wizard.

ERROR IN IMPORTING RECORDS THROUGH DTW

Hi Experts,
I am trying to import more than 25000 items using DTW and i am getting the error msg, is displayed tht created failed and it is displaying only "20" items which r not imported but actually none of item is not imported. why it is not displaying all the items in the log files.

Preme,
It will be very hard to say whats exactly going wrong unless the template can be reviewed. It would help if you could answer the following:
Upto how many records do you see the DTW progress in import?
Which particular record does it fail?
It would help if you can provide a few Items from your template that failed to import.
In the meanwhile, you could try the following
Try to split the file into 5 or 10 templates with each having 2500 - 5000 items each.
Import the first file and see how it goes through.

Using "&" and "," characters when importing .csv through DTW

Hi all,
How can I import values like addresses or names using DTW eg: "POBox 123, Capetown" or "Hulley & Rice" where the "," and the "&" characters are valid.
Thanks

Hi,
I think that it is better to import your file using txt format with Tab as delimiter.
You will be able to import text with ",".
For the character "&", I didn't find how to import this, so I replaced "&" by "and".
Perhaps, we will have more info on that.

Error when importing through DTW for JE

Hi All,
When i try import Je through DTW it gives me the error as "You are not allowed to edit posting date".
I am trying to import around 1000 transactions of which it gives me this error for one transaction, when i remove the transaction and try to import, it imports the balance records.
Please help me out to resolve this issue.
Regards
Shanker

Hi Gordon,
Sorry for delay in replying.
This solution we had already found, the actual reason is when we are uploading 7000 transactions, it gives the around 2000 and once we resolve or remove that transaction again at 4300 give the error.
The reason is first SAP reads all the transactions which is takes around 15 Min(since we have 1 GB RAM on Server) and throws error if any, and by that time we resolve all the transactions, take lot of time in uploading the data.
Once again sorry for the delay in replying.

Importing Sales Orders through DTW

Hi,
I´m trying to imports Orders through DTW, I wonder if it is possible to define de the Base Document, in this case the Sales Quotations
Thanks in Advanced

Aridane,
The DTW uses the Documents object, as well as Document Lines, etc., and the properties exposed in this object. If the "Base Document" property is exposed per the Documents object in the SDK Help Center, then yes you should be able to import it. The property of BaseEntry is exposed via the Document_Lines object. This is equivalent to the the BaseEntry in the DTW template Document_Lines.csv.

Posting Purchase order through DTW template

Hi
Good Morning
I am importing po through DTW templete.
after import, Item in a PO is taking price which is link to pricelist attachwith BP
(BP ->Payment tab) and showing adjusted price as discount. so total value of item is matched But total value of PO is wrong because of discount amount.
I explained it with example
I want to import item A with following details
In legacy system, PO details is
ITEM - A       Price - 1.00   quanity - 100   Amount- 100
ITEM - B       Price - 5.5   quanity - 100   Amount-   550
Total PO Amount - 650
After importing above po in SBO, i have got above PO as
Price list attached with BP Is Purchse List and Rates of following item in that pricelist are ITEM A - 1.5   ITEM B - 5.5
ITEM - A      Price - 1.50 quanity - 100   discount- -0.33 AMOUNT : 100
ITEM - B      Price - 5.5   quanity - 100   discount- 0.00 aMOUNT : 550
TOtal Befor Discount : 650
Discount : -50
Total PO Amount 700
Means Po amount in Legacy system is 650
and in SAP BO, it show that amount as Total Before Discount
Please help me
i want to import Po as in Legacy system.
is price change in any price list after entering po? which price list will we get affected ?
Kishore

Hi
I have already seen this link
But i confused how to create new tax.
ok
I have one problem while importing po throu dtw template.
I already imported po through DTW.
But after importing PO. Rates of Item are picked from pricelist.
That pricelist is link to Business partner of that PO through payment term which is attached to that payment term. or default price list which is first in list of prices.
My original price is stored as Gross Price and price in pricelist as UNIT PRICE
in PO. therefore SBO sets automatically discount field as proportional of Gross price to unit price.
We already discussed, and i set discount field as zero.
There is any field which is help to store Gross price (actual unit price in legacy system) as unit price.
Please drop any light on this topic
Thanks
Regards
Kishore

Importing Contact Persons through DTW

Hi,
I´am trying to import Contact Persons through DTW. These "Contact Persons" belong to Business Partners that already have "Contact Persons". I want to add new contact persons to these Business Partners. The problem that instead of adding those Contact Persons, the DTW is updating the Contact Persons that already exists.
I have two files, Business Partners and Contact Employees. In this first one I´m using two fields (Recordkey and Cardcode). In the second one, Contact Employees, i´m leaving blank the field "linenum". I´m also setting in the third step of the DTW process, the option of "Add all items into Schema if can´t find corresponding item when updating". In the 5 step I choose Update objects"
Thanks in advanced

Aridane,
Apologies ... I misunderstood what you were asking. If you look at the sample temple for Contacts that are related to Business Partners at ...
..\Program Files\SAP\Data Transfer Workbench\Templates\Data preparation examples\20. TestCase2_Test Data for Update function\oBusinessPartners\ContactEmployees.csv
Here you can see that you have to relate the RecordKey of the ContactEmployee to the RecordKey for the Business Partner. If there are multiple contacts for the same Business Partner, the RecordKey is repeated as in the example and you increment the LineNum for each different Contact.

Eddy
