Import to Excel

Why is the import taking over 20 minutes from PDF to Excel?

Hi mm368,
We would like to help! What is the size of your doc? There is a 100 MB limit. Was the pdf created from an excel doc originally?
Looking forward to hearing back from you!

Has any one came across this issue that I am facing now?
I have a form in HFM and I exported the form to Excel and the export works fine. but when I import the excel template into form, it was not successful. I have 250 rows in the template. I deleted 50 rows and tried to import and it worked fine . Is there any row limit on this?
Below here is the error message that I am getting
An error occured. Please contact your administrator

I appreciate any ideas on this

What version of HFM and Excel?
Make sure you honor the file extension requirements for 2007 docs and import the same as they are exported.

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.

Issues with importing from excel

I have been running into a several issues with importing from Excel.
First my configuration
I am running SQL Developer ver 1.5.5 Build MAIN-5969
I am on a Windows XP Professional Version 2002 with Service Pack 3
I am importing into an Oracle 10g database.
1. SQL Developer doesn't work on Excel 2007, I have to save all my files into Excel 97-2003 format before I can use them.
2. If I run into an error loading and stop the process, SQL Developer doesn't release the Excel file and I get a sharing violation if I try to save the spreadsheet without closing SQL Developer.
3. I have found that I have to set print area to the area I want to work with, otherwise the import wizard tries to keep adding rows.
4. When using the Import wizard, it keeps adding commas on fields with numerics unless I specify the column in excel as text. Currently the column is formatted as General in the spreadsheet or I can change the wizard format to say the column is an integer, but it actually is just a code field with numeric characters so it may have leading zeroes that I need to keep.
This might be related,
I have a column in excel defined as text but only contains numerics. It is of length 4, but the wizard sets a precision of 5 with a datatype of VARCHAR2. If I try to change it to 4, I get an error saying the field is not large enough. Yet, when I do a LEN on the column, it only gives me a 4. I have other fields in the same sheet that a 3 position numeric and 2 position numeric and those are fine. I am thinking this is related to the comma being inserted in a numeric field for anything greater than 3 positions.
5. Importing excel dates to oracle dates doesn't work. I have to convert the excel date column to text then import as a VARCHAR, then convert to Date once in the database.
6. The default of nullible is not set on any columns and I have to set them before the import. (I would prefer it set to nullible and I have to uncheck the box to make it not nullible. I would prefer to import all of the data and then deal with the nulls after they have been pulled in)
7. When I select header columns included it uses that as the column names. Is it possible to do the name length check then? It has bit me a few times where I try to import and forget to check the name length and then I get an error when I start running the import.
8. If one of the columns to import has all nulls, then the precision comes out to 0 and if it isn't changed an error occurs on import. Could this situation default to a precision of 1?
9. It would be nice if there was a completion message displayed and a cancel option while running.

On point 3.
I have a column in excel that consists of numbers. 4 digit numeric codes. Ex, 1111, 2345, etc
The column's format is general. It displays as just 4 numbers.
When I start the wizard initially, the column appears with data as 1,111, 2,345, etc, on the Data Preview screen.
It determines the precision to be 5 on the column definition screen.
If I change the precision to 4 then continue, that field will error out when I verify with "not big enough to hold the data in source columns"
If, I change the excel column to a TEXT column.
Excel still displays as 1111, 2345, etc
The wizard then displays the same data 1111, 2345 on the Data Previeiw screen
Yet, when I get to the column definition screen it still sizes it as a 5
If I change it to a 4, I get the same error when verifying.
If I leave them alone as 5, then it processes just fine.

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.

Data Import from Excel - Users Logged on

Hello all,
I am new the forums and am learning SAP from a user and administrator perspective so please excuse if some of my questions seem obvious. I appreciate everyone's help very help
I have the task of setting up two new company profiles in addition to our current one.
I am at the stage of importing Item Master and Business Partner data.
1) What is the preferred method? DTW vs. Import from Excel? Is one more suitable then the other for this purpose?
2) The help file for importing via excel states "If SAP Business One is running on a network, you have ensured that other users will be logged off the system during the import." Could someone please explain:
- What are the risks of running DTW or imports while users are logged in?
- If users are logged into the live version of our company but I am testing DTW/excel imports from a TEST copy of that company are there still risks or is this okay?
- If users are logged into one database but I am performing data imports on a different company database (for example I would be the only one logged into the companies currently being set up - is this okay even though users are logged into SAP server but accessing a different company?)
Thanks very much!
Richard

Hi Kiwi,
Referring to the Rules of enagement you have to post one thread per question. Please adhere to the rules from your next post.
DTW is the very much Preferred method you have simulation to see if you record are find to be imported before importing to the DB, using DTW Import from Excel will only help importing BP and Item master data. If you have to make any updates then it will be a task again. In DTW you can save the template and keep adding data and changes can be updated from the template and re-imported
Please refer to the link below to "Differences between the Import From Excel and Data Transfer Workbench templates" the screen shots for DTW are from version before 2007A SP01 PL09.
[http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/B1/DifferencesbetweentheImportFromExcelandDataTransferWorkbenchtemplatesandwhathappenswhentheyare+interchanged.]
1. When users are logged on It can cause some inconsistency, ensure no user is logged on the live DB before performing any major DTW import
2. It will be ok if you are Test importing data to test DB on the same SQL server.

Rakesh N

Data Import from Excel for Items

I have used the data import for items, in the past , to import the prices for existing item. I am using this for the first time in SAP version 9.0. There are new fields due to the additional currencies. In an running a test with two items and two price list codes, code 1 and code 10. When I run the import gets stuck in a loop and keeps giving me errors on line 1 with invalid price code.
I want to import two price lists Price List 1 and Price List 10. For example I want price list 1 to be $10.00 and price lit 10 to be $5.00
In the import from excel I have the following fields
A Item Number
B Price List Code
C Unit Price - Primary Currency
D Primary Currency
E Unit Price - Additional Currency 1
F Additional Currency 1
G Unit Price - Additional Currency 2
H Additional Currency 2
I UoM Code
J Price List Code
K Unit Price - Primary Currency
L Primary Currency
M Unit Price - Additional Currency 1
N Additional Currency 1
O Unit Price - Additional Currency 2
P Additional Currency 2
Q UoM Code
I am using the following columns
A item number
B 1
C 10.00
J 10
K 5.00
This is the way I use this function in SAP versions 2007 and 8.8
Any suggestions
Dennis

Hi Gordon,
I tried what you suggested, but does not work. I tried with two items, when I run the import SAP gets stuck in a loop displaying error lines. The only way to stop is to restrt SAP.

Import Word/Excel document option greyed out

For a class assignment I am instructed to import a Word document using Import -> Word Document. The problem is that the option to import Word & Excel documents is greyed out. Yes, I have the destination file open when I try to import the document. This does not change even if I create a new, blank HTML file and try to import the document into that file.
My system:
Dreamweaver CS5
Microsoft Office 10
Windows 7
64-bit processor
Could this be an incompatability with 64-bit system? That's the only thing that's out of the norm on my computer. Is there something that I can change to make this option work on my system?
Thanks.

Ok - I received a response from tech support (it's been a while, but I figured that this might be helpful to someone else with this issue).
Drumroll, please:
"Office 10 came out after Dreamweaver CS5 & is not supported"
Unfortunately, the free Adobe technical support is staffed by who are not technical experts. The answer that you received is complete nonsense.
Office 10 is the XP version of Microsoft Office, which was released in 2002. Office 2010 is actually Office 14.0.
Like you, I have Windows 7 64-bit. I also have Office 2010 installed.
I have just created a test document in Word 2010, and saved it on my desktop. I then opened Dreamweaver CS5, made sure the focus was in Design view, and then selected File > Import > Word Document. The file was correctly imported.
As I said before, it's important for the focus to be in Design view. The following screenshot shows an attempt to access Import > Word Document when the focus is out of Design view. The option is greyed out.
I then clicked inside Design view to ensure the focus was in the correct place. As the following screenshot shows, the options for Word and Excel are no longer greyed out.
Importing Word documents in Dreamweaver CS5 on Windows 7 64-bit definitely works with Word 2010. If it's not working on your system, there's a problem with your installation. It's not a bug in Dreamweaver or lack of support for Office 2010.

SQL Developer: import from Excel bug

This is a test for import from Excel.
Test table:

SQL Deveoper generates:

Inserted 2rows.
Failed to insert 1rows.
SQL Error:ORA-12899: value too large for column "BCRCEK"."BLA"."Y" (actual: 4, maximum: 1)
I think there is a bug, because there must be generated NULL without apostrophe.
insert into BLA (X,Y) VALUES(3,NULL);

Hi Barry,
   That's[b] GREAT NEWS !!!.
   So, i just update current release 1.1.2.25 to 1.1.2.25.79 ?
Thanks for the great work.

Oops !!! Am already using 1.1.2.25.79, same as bcrcek above. So need to wait for Patch Release ?

SQL Developer:Problem with multi byte size after import using excel format

Hi,
Need your help. I am trying to export multibyte characters from our China instance(r11i instance) using SQL Developer's export data via Excel format into an R12 Vision instance. I have a staging table with exactly the same structure in both instances. Prior to export to excel, I check the byte size of the sample data below using LENGTH and LENGTHB sql functions and these are the results:
Sample data = 材料LI（USD）
LENGTH=9
LENGTHB=13
Then, I exported the table as excel file. Afterwards, I used SQL Developer to import the excel file into the table of the target instance. I check the bytesize again and here are the results:
Sample data = 材料LI（USD）
LENGTH=9
LENGTHB=17
The byte size increased from 13 to 17. I did not change anything on the excel file. Just straight forward export to excel file then imported it to the target instance. How come there is an increase in byte size? Has anyone encountered this in SQL Developer? We really need to export the files as excel.
Source:
Database version = 9.2.0.5.0
Target:
Database version = 11.1.0.7.0

Wendell,
This forum is for handling issues migrating from non-Oracle databases to Oracle databases.
As this is an Oracle to Oracle issue using SQL*Developer export it would be better to open a new thread in the SQL*Developer forum -

There will be more people there who can help with this problem.
