Error when loading hierarchy through flat file

Dear All,
We are facing an issue during hierarchy upload through flat file.
Below is the message :-
Error 8 when compiling the upload program: row 658, message: A newer version of data type /BIC/B0000559000 was.
Message no. RSAR233.
Nothing else is being displayed.
Request you to guide on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Anup

Hi,
I faced the same issue earlier.
This is what i did. SE38-RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL run the program and give your sourcesystem name this activates all the structure including new version /BIC structure what you have stated.
After which you need to refresh the RSA1 Tcode and do the same process again to load the hierarchy.
It should work fine now.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Harish

Error when loading hierarchy from Flat-file

I am trying to get the Fund Group-Fund Fund Center Hierarchy .
Ie : Fund Group
             Fund 1
                    Fund center 1
                    Fund Center 2
       Fund Group 2
I am trying to load it from a flat file.
I got the Flat file structure for the hierarchy.
& I am trying to load it to the Funds Group master data.
I am stuck at IPak.
In the Processing Tab,
Only the option Only PSA is enabled.
My Doubt is :
Why are the other options disabled: could it be because I might have missed something in my previous steps ???
Or
if I load till PSA , I dont know how to load it to the Master data from there -as when I schedule it : I can see it in PSA but then it stays in Yellow & then turns to Red.

Hi,
Go to monitor(RSMO)then verify on detail tab for PSA Load. Hope this help you,
Thanks

Hi,
This is Thilak. For loading Data To hierarchy from flat file u should follow the below steps.
1. Create info objects as per ur hierarchy structure. i.e., ZH_CNO( for cno), ZH_SRGN (for region) .
2. find the highest node level info object. i.e., ZH_CNO.
3. go to that info object (highest node level info object) and select "with hierarchy" chk box.
4. click on " MAINTAIN HIERARCHY" button and move the external characteristics info objects to rt. side pannel.i.e., ZH_SRGN.
(Hint : other than first and last node level characteristics)
5. Activate the info object.
6. Create the info source (ZH_IS) of " DIrect Update Type".
7. Assign Hierarchy Data source( ZH_CNO_HIER) to that info source.
8. Schedule the info package to load the hierachy data from flat file.
Note: If u have any doubts regarding flat file format and hierarchy structure plz call to +91 9600015640 or mail to thilak.oggn@gmail. bcz i am unable to draw that hier strtr ana table.

1) Wrong format, you wont get much support loading OLAP cubes in here I think.
2) Has your CSV file been anywhere near excel by chance the conversion of 20071113121100 to 2.00711E+13 looks very much like what I see when Excel has an invalid number mask / precision specified for a cell.
*** We are using EBS. File was already generated by consultants through SQL query. Getting error while loading though Informatica. Target table is setup as date datatype and source is String(19).
Expression in Informatica is setup as below.
IIF(ISNULL(CREATED_ON_DT), NULL, TO_DATE(CREATED_ON_DT, 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS'))

Error 1 when loading data from flat file

Hi,
I am working on BW 3.5 when i was loading flat file it is giving error 1 when loading external data can anyone solve and mail to me this email id [email protected] .

Hi,
I have done correctly but even error 1 data loading from external file is coming, i just clicked on that and it came like this, Error 1 when loading external data,no invalid data like arthematics operations,But file accessing and path is correct.
Message no. RSAR234
Diagnosis
Error number 1 occurred when loading external data:
1. Error when reading the file (access rights, file name, ...)
2. File size or number of records does not correspond to the data in the control file
3. Error when generating the IDoc
4. File contains invalid data (errors with an arithmetic operation or data conversion)
Procedure
Check whether you have the required access rights and whether the data in the control file is correct (file names, record length, number of records, ...). Correct the data in the control file if necessary and check the data file for invalid data (values of the wrong type, values in the wrong format for conversion exit,...). Check whether the file has headers that have not been specified.
Thanks

Errors during Loading TD from Flat file to PSA

Hi Guys,
I got some errors while loading the flat file transaction data into PSA using infopackage.
Could you guys can help me to solve the below errors. It would be more appreciated if you guys could send some material which tells about these types of errors more detailly.
Points will be awarded.
Field /BIC/ZIO_PRIC ( Position 4 ): External length specification will be ignored
Message no. RSDS101
Diagnosis
The value 23 is specified as output length in Field /BIC/ZIO_PRIC ( Position 4 ). It is also specified that the data is shipped in internal format.
System Response
The length specification for output length is ignored. If the data in the source actually have the specified lengths, this results in conversion errors.
Procedure
Select the external format if required.
Field /BIC/ZIO_PRIC ( Position 4 ): Amount field in internal format; check settings
Message no. RSDS099
Diagnosis
Setting made for Field /BIC/ZIO_PRIC ( Position 4 ) states that the data from the source is available in the internal format.
This is not usually the case for this source system type.
System Response
If you do not change this setting, the data has to be available in the internal SAP format.
Example:
For the Japanese Yen this means: 1000 JPY has to be delivered from the source as 10.00 JPY.
Procedure
Check the data format of the source and where necessary, change the setting to External.
Field /BIC/ZIO_PRIC ( Position 4 ): Missing reference to currency field/unit field
Message no. RSDS151
Diagnosis
If an amount or quantity field is not delivered with values in internal format, an associated currency field or unit field must be specified so that the currency or units can be converted during data import.
System Response
The DataSource can not be activated.
Procedure
Specify a reference field if the data is delivered in external format.
Specify a reference field even if the currency or unit is constant. Fields with fixed values are not part of the data source; they are filled by the system when loaded.

Hi JUergen.
The order of the fields are same as datasource. I didn't make any field for amount in a flat file as it is defined as fixed currency usd when i created a key figure. i don't think so we have to create a field unless we take 0currency is a unit for price instead of fixed currency.
Though we got the above error, it still allows activates the datasource but the 10.00 usd shows as 1000 usd.
Cheers,

Error while loading table from flat file (.csv)

I have a flat file which i am loading into a Target Table in Oracle Warehouse Builder. It uses SQL Loader Internally to load the data from flat file, I am facing an issue. Please find the following error ( This is an extract from the error log generated)
SQL*Loader-500: Unable to open file (D:\MY CURRENT PROJECTS\GEIP-IHSS-Santa Clara\CDI-OWB\Source_Systems\Acquisition.csv)
SQL*Loader-552: insufficient privilege to open file
SQL*Loader-509: System error: The data is invalid.
SQL*Loader-2026: the load was aborted because SQL Loader cannot continue.
I believe that this is related to SQL * Loader error.
ACtually the flat file resides in my system ( D:\MY CURRENT PROJECTS\GEIP-IHSS-Santa Clara\CDI-OWB\Source_Systems\Acquisition.csv). I am connecting to a oracle server.
Please suggest
Is it required that i need to place the flat file in Oracle Server System ??
Regards,
Ashoka BL

Hi
I am getting an error as well which is similar to that described above except that I get
SQL*Loader-500: Unable to open file (/u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv)
SQL*Loader-553: file not found
SQL*Loader-509: System error: The system cannot find the file specified.
SQL*Loader-2026: the load was aborted because SQL Loader cannot continue.
The difference is that Ashoka was getting
SQL*Loader-552: insufficient privilege to open file
and I get
SQL*Loader-553: file not found
The initial thought is that the file does not exist in the directory specified or I have spelt the filename incorrectly it but this has been checked and double checked. The unix directory also has permission to read and write.
Also in the error message is
Control File: C:\u21\oracle\owb_staging\WHITEST\source_depot\INV_LOAD_LABEL_INVENTORY.ctl
Character Set WE8MSWIN1252 specified for all input.
Data File: /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv
Bad File: C:\u21\oracle\owb_staging\WHITEST\source_depot\Durham_Inventory_Labels.bad
As can be seen from the above it seems to be trying to create the ctl and bad file on my c drive instead of on the server in the same directory as the .csv file. The location is registered to the server directory /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot
I am at a lost as this works fine in development and I have just promoted all the development work to a systest environment using OMBPlus.
The directory structure in development is the same as systest except that the data file is /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITED/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv and everything works fine - .ctl and .bad created in the same directory and the data sucessfully loads into a oracle table.
Have I missed a setting in OWB during the promotion to systest or is there something wrong in the way the repository in the systest database is setup?
The systest and development databases are on the same box.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
