Mobilink syncronization mapping one column of SQLA to two of HANA columns

Question

Hi,
In SQLA I have a column(say col_a) which I want to divide and put in two columns in HANA(say col_a and col_b). My string lengths are fixed so I know where exactly to divide.
With this in mind, I could write the upload script to upload data into hana which goes into two tables.
Here it is :
INSERT INTO <MY_TABLE>
       ( pkey,
         col_a,
         col_b )
VALUES ( {ml r.pkey},
         SUBSTRING ({ml r.col_a}, 0, 26),
         SUBSTRING ({ml r.col_a}, 28, 6) )' );
Now I am confused about how to write the Download script. Usually I should concatenate them and put in the one column of SQLA I tried with this :
SELECT <MY_TABLE>.pkey,
       CONCAT ( CONCAT ( <MY_TABLE>.col_a, " "),
       <MY_TABLE>.col_b)
  FROM TEST_CHAR_TYPES_TABLE
       INNER JOIN <MY_TABLE>_upserted
               ON <MY_TABLE>_upserted.pkey
                = <MY_TABLE>.pkey
WHERE <MY_TABLE>_upserted.upserted_timestamp
    >= {ml s.last_table_download}
This does not work. Any pointer on this would be of huge help.

Hi Subhankar,

Your download_cursor SQL looks okay in this instance - can you clarify what the error is that you receive with MobiLink?
Feel free to post a simple log snippet (dbmlsync -o remote.txt or mlsrv16 -o mlsrv.txt) with the details.
Thanks,
