Error in loading the data from flatfile

Hello All,
when am loading the data from flat file iam getting error "ERROR4 WHEN LOADING THE EXTERNAL DATA" is it because of mapping in the transferrules or error in the flat file.
Points will be assigned to all helpful answer.
Thanks & Regards
Priya

Hii Priya,
The reasons may be the file is open, the format/flatfile structure is not correct, the mapping/transfer structure may not be correct, presence of invalid characters/data inconsistency in the file, etc.
Check if the flatfile in .CSV format.
You have to save it in .CSV format for the flatfile loading to work.
Also check the connection issues between source system and BW or sometimes may be due to inactive update rules.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
I think you are facing an invalid character issue.
This issue can be resolved by correcting the error records in PSA and updating it into the target. For that the first step should be to identify if all the records are there in PSA. You can find out this from checking the Details tab in RSMO, Job log , PSA > sorting records based on status,etc. Once its confirmed force the request to red and delete the particular request from the target cube. Then go to PSA and edit the incorrect records (correcting or blanking out the invalid entries for particular field InfoObject for the incorrect record) and save it. Once all the incorrect records are edited go to RSA1>PSA find the particular request and update to target manually (right click on PSA request > Start update immediately).
I will add the step by step procedure to edit PSA data and update into target (request based).
In your case the error message says Error : Record 1 :Value 'Kuldeep Puri Milan Joshi '. You just need to conver this to Capital letter in PSA and reload.
Edit the field to KULDEEP PURI MILAN JOSHI in PSA and push it to target.
Identifying incorrect records.
System wont show all the incorrect records at the first time itself. You need to search the PSA table manually to find all the incorrect records.
1. First see RSMO > Details > Expand upate rules / processing tabs and you will find some of the error records.
2. Then you can go to PSA and filter using the status of records. Filter all the red requests. This may also wont show the entire incorrect records.
3. Then you can go to PSA and filter using the incorrect records based on the particular field.
4. If this also doesnt work out go to PSA and sort (not filter) the records based on the particular field with incorrect values and it will show all the records. Note down the record numbers and then edit them one by one.
If you want to confirm find the PSA table and search manually."
Also Run the report RS_ERRORLOG_EXAMPLE,By this report you can display all incorrected records of the data & you can also find whether the error occured in PSA or in TRANSFER RULES.
Steps to resolve this
1. Force the request to red in RSMO > Status tab.
2. Delete the request from target.
3. Come to RSMO > top right you can see PSA maintenace button > click and go to PSA .
4.Edit the record
5. Save PSA data.
6. Got to RSA15 > Search by request name > Right click > update the request from PSA to target.

This should solve your problem for now.
As a long term you can apply some user exit in source system side or change your update rules to ensure that this field is getting blanked out before getting loaded in cube or add that particular char to permitted character list in BW.
RSKC --> type ALL_CAPITAL --> F8 (Execute)
OR
Go to SE38 and execute the program RSKC_ALLOWED_CHAR_MAINTAIN and give ALL_CAPITAL or the char you want to add.
Check the table RSALLOWEDCHAR. It should contain ALL_CAPITAL or the char you have entered.

Error while loading the data from text file

Hi,
I got an error " Data Value Encountered before all Dimensions selected" while loading the data from the text file.
Can any one please suggest me the solution.

Possible Solutions
Make sure that the data source is valid.
Is a member from each dimension specified correctly in the data source or rules file?
Is the numeric data field at the end of the record? If not, move the numeric data field in the data source or move the numeric data field in the rules file.
Are all members that might contain numbers (such as "100") enclosed in quotation marks in the data source?
If you are using a header, is the header set up correctly? Remember that you can add missing dimension names to the header.
Does the data source contain extra spaces or tabs?
Has the updated outline been saved?

Error while loading the data from excel to database.

Hi,
I am using PL/SQL developer to load the data from excel to database. I will set the data source in the control panel and will proceed through ODBC importer in pl/sql developer to import the data.
What exactly the error is when i click the filename to view the result preview it shows an error as:
The field is too small to accept the amount of data you attempted to add. Try inserting or pasting less data.
Kindly help with solution.
Thanks/Regards
Sakthivarman J.

Hello;
That error message comes from Microsoft, so something in you Excel sheet is the cause.
Its a pain but I would check properties of each column in case Excel decided to add something, a comma for example.
Do you have a column over 255 characters? Look there first. If any length is greater than 255 it will crash and burn.
Or convert it to a CSV and create an external table.
Best Regards
mseberg
Might also throw an 3163 as an error where you cannot see it.

Hi Rizwan,
you didn't mention the error message in details. there could be a few places to be checked:
- check if BW itself source system is active and in tact and reactivate if necessary
- check if update rule is active and reactivate if necessary
- check if ODS is active and reactivate if necessary

Load the data from a transparent customised table in BW to an ODS

Hi there,
How can you load the data from a transparent customised table created in BW to an ODS.
Many thanks.
Sarah

Hi,
just create a generic datasource in rso2 for that table, replicate the datasource for source system 'myself', create a infosource and assign the new datasource to that infosource. Create a update rule from infosource to ods, create a infopackage and load the data.

When Loading the data from a french Language

Hi all
First let me Wish u Happy Friendshipday
When iam loading the data from a french system. Do i need to have a french key board.
And wht measures should i take to load a load when it is not in english language..

Hi
You dont need a french keyboard!
Just make sure that the french language is installed in your BW system
TO check this go to transaction RZ10 and select a defined parameter.
In it, see if apart from English and German, if french is also checked. Installation of language is job of basis guys and check with them too
Hope this helps
