Import from Excel file not picking up WBS

I believe I understand the mechanics of exporting activities to create a template to use for adding new activities to an existing project via a subsequent import. And it seems to work, i.e. I end up with new activities in my existing project. BUT.... I can't seem to direct which WBS they add to. It just adds them under the top level project WBS rather than the lower level WBS I specify. I initially tried just having the WBS code in the import, but then added the name and path. But no help. Do you know whether I can direct the new activities to have the WBS I want and if so how?
Thanks
S

Yes, it's work. Ussually I exported from P6 the current data with include WBS ID in the collumn.
Then add new Activity ID and others required information incliding WBS ID, and import again to P6.

Importing From Excel file will not import assignments correctly where there are more than one assignment per task

I am trying to import an excel file ... see below. It appears if you select both Tasks and Assignments tables it will not allow you to do this, says file is not in a project recognized format. So I import Tasks tab first then run the
wizard again and import the assignments tab while selecting merge with project option. This works with one exception:
If there are more than one assignment per task. It does not merge in the 2nd assignment, only the first.
Is there a way to import a task with 2 or more assignments?
Background
To figure out what the format for the file needed to be, I started with a MPP file and from project saved as Excel and selected the "Project Template" file. Now I am trying to import that XLS to see how it works

Andrew,
I did a quick test using your example although I didn't include the Predecessor or Outline Level fields to keep things a little simpler. I imported the Excel data into a new Project file with a single import of task and assignment data. It is very important
to set up the Excel Workbook correctly. On Sheet 1 I entered the task data (Name, Duration, Start). I did not include the ID or finish date as that is redundant - Project generates its own ID and will calculate the finish date based on the start date and duration.
On Sheet 2 I entered the assignment data basically just as you show it except I didn't include the Units.
The data imported as expected.

Import from Excel file to Oracle Db

Dear all,
I am not having DBA privilege.And I cant use export utility.
I want to import the datas from Excel file through query builder. I Know there is a option in query builder. But i dont know how to do?
Plz help...
Thanks.

Hi,
If you are very specific to load using your tool only then below are the steps.
In the main menu
Go To Database-> Import -> Import Table Data
In the screen select your schema and table name you wish to load in.
Click on Show Data and after that click on Execute Wizard.
This will ask for table type where you can select Excel file and then follow the wizard.
Thanks.

Is it possibke to extract import data from excel file not csv type

I am getting training from somebody, who is telling me the excel file has to be type csv only to extract and import the excel data for creating infoobjects, is that true.
Please kindly provide steps, if any one has steps to extract the excel data while creating info object.
I am going thru an excersise for creating info objects, but while brining the excel csv file data to info objects do i again need to create each field column and its attributes etc.
Thank you all for the helpful info.

Hi
If you want to load data from excel to BW(Info Objects or data source), then file should be in excel format. to import the data system directly import it into excel sheet(normal one)
to load the data you should have all values and attributes in your excel sheet which you have created in BW system.

Import data from excel file - best practice in the CQ?

Hi,
I have question related to importing data from excel file and creates from those data a table in the CQ page. Is inside CQ some OOTB component which provides this kind of functionalities? Maybe somebody implement this kind of functionality or there is best practice to do this kind of functionalities?
Thanks in advance for any answer,

You can check a working example package [1] (use your Adobe ID to log in)
After installing it, go to [2] for immediate example.
Unfortunately it only supports the old OLE-2 Excel format (.xls and not .xlsx)

Import From CSV File statement runs forever, no error, does not finish

Hello,
I am trying to import a CSV file in a JAVA program, with the following statement:
IMPORT FROM CSV FILE '/debug/testdatabase/FILE.csv'
INTO "JOSEPH"."TEST_TABLE"
WITH COLUMN LIST IN FIRST ROW
RECORD DELIMITED BY '\n'
FIELD DELIMITED BY '\t' ERROR LOG '/debug/testdatabase/file.err'
THREADS 10
BATCH 10000
I have two HANA instances on different machines A and B:
Both machines run HANA version 1.00.74.00.389160 (NewDB100_REL), while the OS is
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.1 on machine A and
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.2 on machine B.
The statement above runs fine on machine A and the rows are imported properly from JAVA as well as when executed from HANA Studio SQL console.
If I copy the file to machine B and try the exact same statement with the same file, it does not finish (neither from JAVA nor from HANA Studio SQL console). There is no error either. It cannot be cancelled, only a HANA restart stops the statement. Also the sample file I use has only 2 rows, and memory does not seem to be a problem.
I seem to have a similar problem to the one described here, but the answers there do not help me: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3396582 I specified the record delimiter, and I used a python script to check for any strange characters that are not supposed to be there, but didn't find any.
If I copy the file to my windows PC and use the "File Menu -> Import -> SAP Hana Content -> Data from Local file" function, it imports the file correctly into B, but I need to be able to do it from JAVA.
Machine A administration view:
Machine B administration view:
If you have any idea what might cause this behavior or where I can find more information on this problem please give me a hint.

Hi Joseph,
First from the pics, the revision of your SAP HANA instance is 73 instead of 74. Since I have no identical environment, I cannot test it for you. But can you try the simplest scenario? You can create a table with only one column table try to import a CSV file with only one row.
Best regards,

Can someone help me change the line width of my numbers table, its not set to thin or none and its stuck on .25. its a spreadsheet i imported from excel.

Can someone help me change the line width of my numbers table, its not set to thin or none and its stuck on pt25. its a spreadsheet i imported from excel.

MR,
Apparently the import wasn't a good one.
The best option at this point might be to start a new table. Insert a new Table, Copy the old table cell range, select the first cell in the new table and Edit > Paste and Match Style. This will throw out all the old formatting. A bit of work, but a nice clean start.

"Import from Text File" & "Upload from Clipboard" icon not appearng in F110

Hi Experts,
While making the payment to the vendors through TN F110, in "PARAMETER" screen just next to 'STATUS' screen, there is a vendor field for selection in range and just ahead of this there is an icon for multiple vendor selection ( Bold arrow mark ). If I click on that multiple vender selection icon ( on bold arrow mark ), an another screen opens for multiple selection for vendors. In this screen 'Enter, Copy, Delete etc' icons are appearing at the bottom of the screen but "Import from Text File" & "Upload from Clipboard" icon are not appearing there.
Can you please let me know how to bring that icons there?
Points would be awarded.
Rgds,
Shailesh

Hi Ravi,
I have not yet created anything and have just entered the parameter. In the multiple screen for vendors there are 5 fields for individual and 5 for range selection. Even you can put more than five range selections or individual selections by clicking on the page button but there I am not finding these two icons.
Can you please check at your end and let me know if you are getting or what to do to bring those two icons in F110.
Rgds,
Shailesh

Import data from excel file

Hello.
Is anybody can help how to import data from excel file to the form created with designer 7.0. Originally there is a script inside the form to populate drop down list and depending from data selected in the ID number drop down list, there will be filled out the description and the prices text fields. But now I have to modify this form with data from excel file, which has more than 30000 lines and put all this data to script is too much.
So, can somebody know how can I after filling the ID number field , populate the description and price text fields with data from excel file corresponding to this ID number ?
This form is used in Adobe reader.
Any comments are welcome.
Regards,
Aivar

Hi
That's what i said in my prev. Post to clear cache... :)
disable your cache from nqsconfig.ini
In cache section of NQSConfig file,
you find
ENABLE = YES;
set to NO
OR
if you are using data ware house as the source for OBIEE,
you know that when ETL is done, so just create iBot to purge cache automatically at that particular intervals,
So that report runs freshly at that time
And what happened to your View Selector question?

Import from Excel not escaping quote (')

Hi,
I'm having problems with text fields in an Excel spreadsheet that contain single quotes (') not being escaped when the insert commands are built using the Import from Excel wizard.
It's pretty much the same problem as that described in the post below (but for importing Excel spreadsheets):
<Re: DDL in the SQL tab does not escape apostrophes
SQLDev 1.2.1.32.00
WinXP SP2
Excel 2003
Any chance of getting this fixed?
Thanks,
Simon

OK, so have updated to
SQLDev 1.2.1.32.13
and still see problem when importing from Excel.
The generated SQL looks like this:
insert into INV_CONTAINERS (CONTAINER_NAME) VALUES('Tetramethylethylenediamine, N,N,N',N'-');
That's supposed to be just one item in the VALUES term.
Is there another way to do this? If not, how do I lodge this as a bug?

Importing date-time data from Excel file

I am running into problems importing date-times in the format 3/15/2010 9:30:00 PM using SQL Developer. At Step 1 of the Data Import Wizard, the data preview window displays all the date fields as Excel dates (e.g. 40252.89583 instead of 3/15/2010 9:30:00 PM). Can I get SQL Developer to recognize the data in their date-time format, rather than converting them to decimal values?

When importing from Excel, I haven't found a date format model that would convert their decimal number into an Oracle date. But the following seems to work well:
1 - Save the Excel page as a CSV file then in the SD import wizard you can enter the date format model for that column.
2 - In Excel convert that column to text. (Highlight your date column, Choose the "Data" menu item, in the "Data Tools" group choose the "Text to Columns" tool, click next / next / then select the "Text" button, click "Finish" and save your xls) Now in the SD import wizard just enter the date format model that matches the Excel 'text' column with your dates.
Either way seems to work for me.
