Import Data in Multi Value Picklist

Hello,
Is there a way to import Data in Multi Values Picklist WITHOUT create the values MANUALLY before ?
Thank for your help.

You need to manually create the values in a Multi Select picklist before doing your import.

Import Multi-Value Picklists

Hello,
I believe it is not possible to import values to a multi-value picklist.
Does anyone know if this is true??
My requirement is to change an exisiting single picklist field to a new multi value field. So i've created the new field, but need to find a way to populate the data, short of doing 2000 records manually??
Any ideas?

Hi
It is possible to import multi-select picklist values in CRM OnDemand by following these steps:
1. when creating the .csv file, make sure to separate the multiple values of the picklist by a semicolon.
For example, if we have a multi-value picklist set up with various first names and we want to import 4 names into this field, we would enter each name separated by a semicolon. Of course these values would have to exist in the field setup.
Account Name Location FirstName
Test Account New York Will;Dan;Kory;Tim
2. during the import, choose the Add New Value To Picklist option.
Hope this will help you.

Using Import Man to load Data into Multi Value Fileds in a Qualified Table

Hi there,
When using the Import Manager, i can not use the "append" option to load data into my multi value field which is contained within my qualified table.
Manually it works fine on Data manager, so the field has been set up correctly. Only problem is appending the data during Import Manager Load.
Any reason why I do not have this option available during Field mapping in Import Manager. The selection options are shown but in gray.
Would appreciate any sugestions.

Thanks Sowseel
Its a good document but doesn't address my problem, maybe My problem isn't clear.
The structure(part of) that I have currently is as follows.
Main Table - Material
                       QFTable- MNF PN
                           LUField - MNF Name(Qualifier Single Value)
                           LUField - BU ID (Non Qualifier Multi Value)
                           TField   - P/N- (Non Qualifier)
I know how to load data to the main and qualified tables, but what I can not do, using Import Manger, is updating the "LUField - BU ID (Non Qualifier Multi Value)" using the append functionality.

How To Import Into A Table with Multi-Value Fields

Hello:
I have a table with a multi-value field that contains states in which a company does business. It is multi-value because there can be more than one state. I tried to import a text tab-delimited file in which the data was arranged as follows:
Field1 Tab Field 2 Tab OR, WA, CA Tab
The "State field contained the multiple entries separated by a comma (like they appear in a query of the multi-value field), but it won't accept it. Does anyone know how to import into a multi-value field?
Thanks,

Here's the code I used to populate a multi-value field from a parsed field. The parsing routine could be greatly improved by using the Split function, but at that time, I had not used it yet. FYI... the field name of the multi-value field in
the table was "DBAInStatesMultiValue", which you can see in the example below how it is integrated into the code.

Reading data from Lookup [qualified flat] (multi-valued) table

I have a main table u2019ABCu2019 which has a Lookup [qualified flat] (multi-valued) field u2018XYZu2019 along with some other text fields. I am able to read data from table ABC including lookup field data, but I do not see the relation
For Ex: If for a contract in table u2018ABCu2019, there are multiple line items in look up table. I have a contract with 2 line items in u2018ABCu2019, but 4 line items in look up table (2 records each for each line item with item number). Now, when I read the data from table u2018ABCu2019 for that contract, I get all the 4 lines in result table; but item no is blank even though there is item no field in table u2018XYZu2019.
Below is the sample code:
wa_query-parameter_code = Contract ID Field.
wa_query-operator = 'EQ'.
wa_query-dimension_type = 1. "mdmif_search_dim_field.
wa_query-constraint_type =8. " mdmif_search_constr_text.
wa_string = Contract Number.
GET REFERENCE OF wa_string INTO wa_query-value_low.
APPEND wa_query TO lt_query.
CLEAR wa_query.
CALL METHOD lcl_api->mo_core_service->query
        EXPORTING
          iv_object_type_code      = 'ABCu2019
        it_query                 = lt_query
        IMPORTING
          et_result_set            = lt_result_set_key.
LOOP AT lt_result_set_key INTO ls_result_set_key.
    lt_keys = ls_result_set_key-record_ids.
ENDLOOP.
Contract Price for lower bound
ls_result_set_definition-field_name = XYZ'.
APPEND ls_result_set_definition TO lt_result_set_definition.
CALL METHOD lcl_api->mo_core_service->retrieve
    EXPORTING
      iv_object_type_code      = 'ABCu2019
      it_result_set_definition = lt_result_set_definition
      it_keys                  = lt_keys
    IMPORTING
      et_result_set            = lt_result_set.
In table lt_result_set, I see 4 records, but I do not know which 2 records belong to item 1 of the contract and other 2 records for item2.
Can anyone help me in resolving this. Any kind of help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Shekar

i do not quite understand ur problem statement ..
but if u have items in the main table to which QLUT entries are linked ..
then when you read the main table record (u get LinkIds at the record level) that gives u the relation to the Qlookup values
i mean for ur case - u would get only 2 values in the QLUT values for the "selected" record in the main table
am not sure if you say correctly - that you get "unlinked" values in the QLUts
so u should 2 values in lt_result_set and not 4 .. see if u are using the LinkIds properly

thanks

MDM Import Manager - remove multiple values from a multi valued fiedl

Hi,
We have this multi-valued field and we would like to clean the values from it.
How can we do this using MDM Import Manager?
Example:
Article A
Field XPTO has values Z, T and P.
We want this field XPTO with no values. How can we do a mass actualization to clean the field for some articles?
Thanks and regards,
Maria

Hi Maria,
There can be multiple ways to achieve this -
1.After doing field mapping for XPTO you can set conversion filter for each of the values.
2.Value map with NULL.
3.Trigger a Workflow on import/record add,run assignment and make that field NULL.
4.Run mass update for conditional assignment based on that value of XPTO.
There can be more ways,whichever suits you best you can go ahead with that.
Hope it helped

[Forum FAQ] How to configure a Data Driven Subscription which get multi-value parameters from one column of a database table?

Introduction
In SQL Server Reporting Services, we can define a mapping between the fields that are returned in the query to specific delivery options and to report parameters in a data-driven subscription.
For a report with a parameter (such as YEAR) that allow multiple values, when creating a data-driven subscription, how can we pass a record like below to show correct data (data for year 2012, 2013 and 2014).
EmailAddress                             Parameter
Comment
[email protected]              2012,2013,2014               NULL
In this article, I will demonstrate how to configure a Data Driven Subscription which get multi-value parameters from one column of a database table
Workaround
Generally, if we pass the “Parameter” column to report directly in the step 5 when creating data-driven subscription.
The value “2012,2013,2014” will be regarded as a single value, Reporting Services will use “2012,2013,2014” to filter data. However, there are no any records that YEAR filed equal to “2012,2013,2014”, and we will get an error when the subscription executed
on the log. (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\LogFiles)
Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.InvalidReportParameterException: Default value or value provided for the report parameter 'Name' is not a valid value.
This means that there is no such a value on parameter’s available value list, this is an invalid parameter value. If we change the parameter records like below.
EmailAddress                        Parameter             Comment
[email protected]         2012                    NULL
[email protected]         2013                     NULL
[email protected]         2014                     NULL
In this case, Reporting Services will generate 3 reports for one data-driven subscription. Each report for only one year which cannot fit the requirement obviously.
Currently, there is no a solution to solve this issue. The workaround for it is that create two report, one is used for view report for end users, another one is used for create data-driven subscription.
On the report that used create data-driven subscription, uncheck “Allow multiple values” option for the parameter, do not specify and available values and default values for this parameter. Then change the Filter
From
Expression:[ParameterName]
Operator   :In
Value         :[@ParameterName]
To
Expression:[ParameterName]
Operator   :In
Value         :Split(Parameters!ParameterName.Value,",")
In this case, we can specify a value like "2012,2013,2014" from database to the data-driven subscription.
Applies to
Microsoft SQL Server 2005
Microsoft SQL Server 2008
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2
Microsoft SQL Server 2012

For every Auftrag, there are multiple Position entries.

SSRS Multi Value Parameter-- though multiple checkboxes ie values are selected ,data is retrieved only from first selected checkbox

Hello Forum Members,
I have a Multi Valued Parameter as text field.
Input field Sale_Month is of the type Nvarchar in the Database and has 2014.01,2014.02,2014.05 etc.
I can multi select the values but when I run the report only values from first check box are retrieved though I have data for all.
Please advise me.

Go to tablix properties, under Filter tab make sure that the Sale_Month filter expression has "IN" operator. Also make sure that the value expression has =Parameter!Sale_Month.Value

Is it possible to import data values to be used in barcode creation?

I have a list of UPCs in an xml file, and would like to import the data to be converted into barcodes by Designer. Is this possible? Could anyone lead me to documentation? Thanks.
Al

You can import data from an XML file by creating a new data connection and you'll need to use the Paper Forms barcode. Be aware that use of the paper forms barcode requires LiveCycle Barcoded Forms (separate license required, according to the pop up when I place the field in a form). Once you set the data connection it's just a matter of writing a script to sift through the XML values one at a time to get the barcode.

How to import multi-value reference with Granfeldt PowerShell MA?

Hi,
I am trying to import multi-value reference into FIM (Group object).
I can import all attributes from source SQL, except Multivalue reference (into members attribute on Group object).
I have defined schema like this:
$obj = New-Object -Type PSCustomObject
$obj | Add-Member -Type NoteProperty -Name "Anchor-axs_profid|String" -Value ""
$obj | Add-Member -Type NoteProperty -Name "objectClass|String" -Value "role"
$obj | Add-Member -Type NoteProperty -Name "name|String" -Value ""
$obj | Add-Member -Type NoteProperty -Name "member|Reference[]" -Value ""
$obj
On source attribute I have members defined in one attribute, divided by ",".
Import script:
$Obj = @{}
$Obj.Add("objectClass", "role")
$Obj.Add("[DN]", "Role_"+$Object.$("axs_profid"))
$Obj.Add("axs_profid", $Object.$("axs_profid").ToString())
$Obj.Add("name", $Object.$("name").ToString())
if($Object.$("member").ToString() -ne "")
[string[]]$members = $Object.$("member").ToString().Split(',')
$Obj.Add("member", $members)
$Obj
When Full import is triggered, I get following error for roles with multiple users:

$Obj.Add("[DN]", "Role_"+$Object.$("axs_profid"))
I am using the latest version of PSMA: 5.5
Thanks for your help guys!

I managed to solve this issue.
The problem was in string array (I always appended "," at the end of each value). MA then expected another value after the last comma.
The wrong approach:
[string[]]$members = $Object.$("member").ToString().Split(',')
The right approach:
[string[]]$members = $Object.$("member").ToString().TrimEnd(',').Split(',')

Import into Lookup Hierarchy Multi-Value Field

My source data contains two fields (Product ID, Product Notes). I need to map the Product Notes into a Hierarchy Lookup Field on main products table. THe hierarchy table for product notes contains two text fields and both are display fields. My source data for product notes contains a comma delimited list of values that only apply to one of the display fields of the Hiearchy table.
Example:
product1 | 1,5,10
product2 | 1,3
product3 | 1,6,13
How do I map and assign the multiple product notes to each product?

Hi Sowseel,
I do not understand your assumptions.
I have following tables:
Tablename: Product Notes
Table Type: Hierarchy
Display Fields: Note Number, Note Description
Unique Fields: Note Number
Key Mapping: No
Tablename: Products
Table Type: Main
Display Fields: Product Number
Key Mapping: Yes
The Product Notes table has following example entries already (comma delimitter indicates field seperation):
1, Description of product note 1
2, Description of product note 2
3, Description of product note 3
Notice there is no really hierarchy. This table type was used to have manual control of the order of the notes.
My import data is formated as follows:
Field1 Name = Product Number
Field2 Name = Product Notes
Field1 Value = XYZ
Field2 Value = 2,8,10
In import manager, the product notes field in my destination pane is shown as a heirarchy. Selecting the root level shows destination values of the display fields for this lookup table (i.e. Note Number, Note Description). However, my source data only contains a comma delimitted list of note numbers. I do not understand how to map the values.

ORA-00926: missing VALUES keyword | when importing data

Hello,
I get the missing VALUES keyword error when importing data from an Excel spreadsheet. Until yesterday everything worked fine. Today I'm having this problem because OSD does not build the DML correctly. See:
insert into WFT_GROEPEN (CODE,OMSCHRIJVING,NIVEAU,INDIC_LAAGSTE_NIVEAU) VALUES('1.1.1.1','- Value of business acquired',4,'N');
Working with OSD 1.2.1 on Windows XP.
Anyone got a clue?
Kind regards,
Dennis

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I found the problem myself. I got 2 columns in the Excel sheet with the same name. Then OSD creates an insert statement like following which gives the 'missing VALUES keyword' error.
insert into WFT_GROEPEN (CODE,OMSCHRIJVING,NIVEAU,INDIC_LAAGSTE_NIVEAU)NIVEAU) VALUES('3','Toelichting balans beleggingen',NULL,'N',NULL);

Trunccolumn value while importing data to physical layer in RPD

Hi All,
While importing data from database, I want to trunc few column values so that I can put complex join, but I am not getting any link to do so.
Can anyone suggest me that if on database, if two tables are linked by outer join, than how can I restore the same join state in Physical layer while maintaining star schema.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I am using version 10.1.3.4.0
This query is a select type physical table in a physical layer of the RPD
select distinct project_no,project_name from cw_vertical_d where project_no = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."Project_Number")
NQ_SESSION."Project_Number" is a session non system variable.I am trying to set this variable through a dashboard prompt ( as a request variable ).
So when a user selects any value in the dashboard prompt then this session non system variable "Project_Number" should be set and then BI Server should fire a query with this value to pick the data from database.
But this report is failing with "*[nQSError: 23006] The session variable, NQ_SESSION."Project_Number", has no value definition*" error.
Don't know what is causing this?

Vikas
