Import manager save Vs Save & Update

Hi all,
I am getting this message when I use Import Server .
515 2008/09/03 11:42:30.091 Some portions of this import map are out of date.
Solution: Please, Launch the Import Manager GUI, preferably using the original source file that the map was generated for, otherwise the same source file and Save Update [File->Save Update] the map.
And when I do the action suggested, it does solve the problem.
My question here is why is this even happening, i use Import manager for the same data file, I am using Save rather than save & Update. So is that causing this problem??
Thanks,
really appreciate any thoughts.

Hi Sudhir,
This problem usually occurs because the XML source that gives the structural error when importing, contains an element which had not been part of the original XML that was used for generation of the original map. Since this element is not defined as mandatory in the XSD the Import Manager could open it with no schema conflict. But since the source file contains a new element the Save Update option must be applied to add this new element to the map definition.        
There are two ways to overcome this issue:                             
1. To create an input file which contains all the elements and use this to create the map (you do not need to run the actual import, it is sufficient just to save the map after mapping all the required fields. 
2. Open the Import Manager GUI and choose a number of files together (the more files you open, the better your map will be).Map all the required fields and values and then use the "Save Update" option to save your changes. Open Console and update the same map for the ports also. Doing this it wont ask for save update for the this element again
You should now be able to import all of the files as well as other files that do not have new unmapped elements. The XML files are valid against the schema and the Server is looking for the mapping not for correctness of the schema.
I hope I am able to help you
Thanks & Regards

  • Import Manager MDM 3.0 Updating old Maps

    Dear MDM Catalog gurus,
    After having upgraded from MDM 2.0 to MDM 3.0 the maps have to be
    updated in Import Manager.
    1.
    When trying to update MDM import Maps in the new "SAP Import Manager" messages
    like
    - "There are multiple roots for the XML Schema. Please select the correct one" or
    - "There are multiple path for Table "ARTICLE". Please select the correct one"
    come up.
    What exactly do we have to do? What is the root of an XML-Schema? Can
    I find that in Console or by looking into "old" Maps with the old Import Manager?
    I saved the old Schema files from Console before upgrading to MDM 3.0.
    Now when I open this old XML-Schema file with an editor, where can I
    find e.g. the "old" root node.
    2.
    What happens if I say "No" I don't want to update the old Import Maps
    when starting Import Manager.
    Then all old Maps are gone and I have to recreate them. But does this
    have an effect on the further upgrading process to MDM 3.0? Will the
    old repositories work under MDM 3.0 after having sais NO?
    Any idea?
    Thanks a lot for your help in advance.
    Best regards,
    Henning

    Hi there,
    thanks for that hints, but this does not really help.
    I already read a lot of sap links, but don't really get a solution where I can find information about where to find the rood node (or what it is) or information to former paths.
    Is there perhaps anybody how also made an upgrade from MDM Catalog 2.0 to 3.0 with similar experience?
    Thanks in advance,
    best regards,
    Henning

  • How to save the setting in MDM import manager?

    How to save the setting in MDM import manager? After I configure all things in MDM import manager, I try to save the setting, let's say, saved map name is " Test002", and then I export this map into desktop. After that, I logon Import manager again, and import this map file, system show me the same thing that I have to configure it again, because nothing was changed, what I configured before, were all disappeared.

    Hi Alfred ,
    are You not saving this map in Import Manager ? Import Manager itslef saves the map and remember it . Exporting map is only for backup .
    Pls make changes and save the map . Exit and relogin . then see the map . It should be there . Pls let us know the result .

  • SAVE Vs SAVE UPDATE

    Hi,
    Whats the exact difference between SAVE and SAVE Update in MDM Import Manager?
    and when we should be using which?
    Thanks
    Simran

    Hi Simran,
    Save option is used to save a map when you create it or do some additional changes to your map.
    Save update option is usually used when while importing your data through automatic process you get an structural exception and the error says: "Some portions of this import map are out of date". This problem usually occurs with XML files because the XML source that gives the structural error when importing, contains an element which had not been part of the original XML that was used for generation of the original map. Since this element is not defined as mandatory in the XSD the Import Manager could open it with no schema conflict. But since the source file contains a new element the Save Update option must be applied to add this new element to the map definition.

  • Error "A web exception has occurred during file upload" when trying to import ESXi image file into Update Manager

    I'm encountering this error and not sure how to fix, I'm quite new to vCenter so please bear with me.
    I'm trying out vCenter 5.1 with Update Manager 5.1 right now.  No license key has been entered and I still have 50 odd days to try it out.
    2 ESXi hosts are being managed by this vCenter, and they're both running ESXi 4.0
    I'm looking to use Update Manager to try to upgrade the ESXi 4.0 hosts to ESXi 5.1
    I downloaded the image file VMware-VIMSetup-all-5.1.0-799735.iso from VMWare website, and is looking to import it using the Update Manager so I can update the ESXi hosts, but I keep on getting the error:
    File name:     VMware-VIMSetup-all-5.1.0-799735.iso
    Failed to transfer data
    Error was: A web exception has occurred during file upload
    I tried importing it by using vSphere client to connect to vCenter server both remotely and locally, with firewall disabled.
    I've read http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1026602
    I've disabled firewall, and there is no anti-virus program on the server.  I've also restarted the machine several times, to no avail, I didn't reinstall update manager because the whole Windows and VCenter installations are clean from scratch.
    I logged into the vSphere Client using Active Directory credentials, and I've made all Domain Admins (which my account is a member of) part of the administrator group on the vCenter server. I can't log in using admin@System-Domain because it tells me I don't have permissions for it, I still haven't really had the chance to figure out why that is and not sure if that makes a difference.
    Also, I'm fairly certain I'm using the right image file, as I've burned some DVD's used that image file to upgrade some other ESXi hosts.  Unless there's a special image file I need to download?
    I'm at lost on what I can do to make it work.  Please advise.
    Thanks.

    The ISO file you mentioned is the one for vCenter Server. What you need is the "VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.1.0-799733.x86_64.iso" (or VMware-VMvisor-Installer-201210001-838463.x86_64.iso) for the ESXi host.

  • Sharepoint 2013 Active Directory Import- Manager field not updating

    Hi,
      SharePoint 2013 Active directory import  -Manager field not updating
    Concern/Issue-
     We are using SharePoint and configured the Active Directory Import .First import it seems everything is working fine and OOB Organization chart  built using User profile data is coming out right.
    Now the user is moved from one Organization Unit to Another.
    Now our Manager field is not Updating .There is change in AD manager attribute but not reflecting in the SharePoint User profile.
    Manger field is mapped to "manager" attribute in SharePoint.
    We tried removing the user and Re-Import using Incremental import but no luck.
    Thanks for help in advance
    Sachin

    Moving a user from one OU to another in AD won't normally change the Manager attribute in AD.  You would need to edit the user's organization settings to change the manager value in AD.  I've also seen these changes not be picked up unless something
    other than just the manager field in AD changing.  Try changing something like Office location and see if the manager change is picked up by AD Import.

  • What is meant by criteria of Updateability in MDM Import manager

    Hi,
    What is meant by criteria of Updateability in MDM Import manager? i read some information, but i could understand, it says original data source be  updateble. what is meant by Original data source.?
    what is the use of option "Read-only"  in Import manager logon screen.
    Thanks

    Hello Ankam,
    You can check the Read-only option to prevent MDM from updating your data source.
    Kindly see the below information on "DATA SOURCE UPDATES"
    DATA SOURCE UPDATES
    Some MDM Import Manager operations require that the original data source be updateable, thereby allowing new fields and/or entire new tables u2013 and the corresponding data values for each record u2013 to be automatically added to the data source before further processing.
    Other operations simply create virtual fields in the MDM Import Manageru2019s workspace, although if the data source happens to be updateable, some of these operations instead add the new fields to the original data source as well.
    NOTE ►► Updating the data source when possible allows you to
    perform additional operations on the new fields as if they were part of
    the original source data, and also use them as record matching fields.
    NOTE ►► Fields that are added only if the data source is updateable
    can be deleted automatically by the MDM Import Manager when you
    exit or switch data sources based on the setting of the Delete Created
    Fields on Exit configuration option.
    Updateable Data Sources
    Whether or not a data source is updateable depends upon the following:
    u2022 Source type. The source Type must permit the MDM Import Manager to update its schema and insert the additional fields of data; some supported types are updateable and some are not.
    u2022 Media. The media on which the data source resides must itself be updateable. If the media on which the data source resides is readonly, such as a CD-ROM, the data source cannot be updated.
    u2022 Permissions. You must have the proper file system permissions to update the file, or the proper DBMS permissions to update the schema of the database.
    u2022 Read-only option. You cannot have checked the Read-Only option, which prevents MDM from updating the data source even if the other conditions would otherwise permit it.
    NOTE ►► The Read-Only option is: (1) enabled for source types that
    can be updated (Access, Oracle, SQL Server, and XML); (2) disabled
    and unchecked for those that use Access as an updateable staging
    area (Delimited Text and Fixed Text); and (3) disabled and checked for
    those that cannot be updated (Excel and ODBC).
    NOTE ►► When the data source is SQL Server, the table names in
    the database must not contain spaces; otherwise any operation that
    would update the data source will fail.
    Hope this helps.

  • Ibook author loading, save, open and update issue

    When we create the ibook author file with 30 pages the systme gets too slow, since it took cache file within the recovery folder.  Also when it take more time while save, open and update process. Curent file size is 169 MB (Minimac 10.7 with 2GB RAM and ibook author version is 1.1)
    Can you any one investigate this issue and help me how to remove this cache file and make the ibook author file is fast?

    I'd suggest to upgrade the ram in your mini to the maximum - low cost and the best thing you can do to improve performance for all apps.
    The cache file's purpose is to make things faster....but if a book is corrupted there may be issues using it for editing. You may need to remove resources and re-add to fix - that or make a new book from start.
    See this Apple Tech Note:

    Good luck.

  • Updated xml schema not reflected in Import Manager and Syndicator

    Hi all,
    We have a perfectly running MDM scenario using custom XML schema for import and syndication. I have now updated the schema by adding a couple of fields to the schema and uploaded the new schema to MDM using Console - Admin - XML Schemas, and we have added the same fields in the repository. However, when I open Import Manager or Syndicator the xml schema is not updated, it is still showing the old version without the new fields. The fields added to the repository show up just fine.
    I have searched around the forum and it suggests I actually have to re-create manually all mappings with the new schema?! I cannot believe this is really necessary and would mean massive amounts of work.
    I have tried to export old maps and create new map with new schema. Then the new fields show up, but when I import the previously exported map the old schema returns and the new fields disappear.
    Any help with this seemingly very odd behavior is very much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Kenneth

    Hi Kenneth, Aamir
    the statement
    > Uploading the XML schema in Console is mainly a placeholder, it not not synced with Import Manager or Syndicator schema at runtime.
    is not completely true. You have to differentiate the MDM version and the tools:
    MDM 7.1 Import Manager: uses the actual XSD of MDM Console
    MDM 7.1 Syndicator: stores the XSD as part of the map and disregards the one in MDM Console
    MDM 5.5 Import Manager: stores the XSD as part of the map and disregards the one in MDM Console
    MDM 5.5 Syndicator: stores the XSD as part of the map and disregards the one in MDM Console
    Best regards

  • MIRO - User Exit during SAVE: Read items & Update header

    Hi there!
    During MIRO after pressing save...
    I search for an user-exit or BAdI, to READ ITEM DATA and UPDATE HEADER DATA (XBLNR) after SAVE but before UPDATE.
    I have searched this forum, but with no luck. Many more then me seem to have the same problem. The most common answer have been to try BAdI INVOICE_UPDATE, but that BAdI only give READ access and NO UPDATE, so no luck there..
    To summarize all my searching here and findings... I list all exits I have tested...
    User-Exits
    LMR1M001 User exits in Logistics Invoice Verification

    Would be greatful for any ideas on this matter...
    Best regards
    Henrik

    Hello Henrik,
    In BADI INVOICE_UPDATE there are 3 methods CHANGE_AT_SAVE, CHANGE_BEFORE_UPDATE and CHANGE_IN_UPDATE.
    Of these CHANGE_AT_SAVE is called before INSERT / UPDATE statements are executed. We can use this to update RBKP-XBLNR.
    We can't use CHANGE_BEFORE_UPDATE and CHANGE_IN_UPDATE methods as they are called after INSERT / UPDATE statements are executed and before COMMIT.
    You can update RBKP-XBLNR through INVOICE_UPDATE~CHANGE_AT_SAVE method using call stack technique like below. You can replace 'VALUE' in the below code with the value based on your calculation using other variables like s_rbkp_new, ti_rseg_new etc.
    method IF_EX_INVOICE_UPDATE~CHANGE_AT_SAVE.
      DATA: lv_name_xblnr(30) TYPE c VALUE '(SAPLMRMP)RBKPV'.
      FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_rbkpv> TYPE mrm_rbkpv.
      ASSIGN (lv_name_xblnr) TO <fs_rbkpv>.
      IF <fs_rbkpv> IS ASSIGNED.
        <fs_rbkpv>-xblnr = 'VALUE'.
      ENDIF.
    endmethod.

  • Importing preferences won't save

    Since I upgraded to iTunes 7.6 for windows I have been having a very strange problem. When I try to set the preferences for importing including mp3/ACC choice, bit rate, mono/stereo, and even whether to play the songs as they are imported- they will not save. The CD always imports with the default settings.
    I have even reinstalled iTunes and nothing is fiding the problem. I've been using iTunes for 4 years and have never had this problem. Any ideas?
    thanks.

    hmmmm.
    okay, let's try an experiment aimed at working out if this is a problem more with the program files or the preference files.
    head into your user accounts control panel and create a new user account with full administrative rights. (there's help documentation on how to do that at the left of the control panel screen.) while you're in that control panel, switch off "fast user switching" in your logging-on preferences.
    now log out of the old account and log into the new account.
    launch itunes. do itunes preferences changes save properly from inside the new account?
    (if they don't, that points towards a program issue. if they do, that points more towards preference files.)
