Transfer GL data into SEM exchange

Question

Hi,
I am trying to transfert data from oracle GL to ABM going through exhange .
I am having trouble with the transfert the filters are not working.
example: I have account numbers starting from 3100 to 8130
when i enter the rules for my expense account.
I get all the accounts from 3100 to 8130.
But let's say enter the filter from 3100 to 8120 it fails
and it also fails for any other filter and i always get an error like this one.
create_update_activa_record: PDS ID :expense does not exist for Model : 20 Please create the PDS and rerun the collection.
create_rule_collections: ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into ("EAA"."EAA_RULE_COLLECTIONS"."ACTIVA_COLLECT_ID")
main: ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into ("EAA"."EAA_RULE_COLLECTIONS"."ACTIVA_COLLECT_ID")
Process Completed with Ret Code : -9999
SQLERRM: User-Defined Exception
why would it work for accounts from 3100 to 8130
but not for 3100 to 8120
thanks

Greg,
i'm repeating myself, but the two steps are
- Then II also have to repeat what I said in my quotation.
1) start with SBIW in r3 and then
- Do you think these two steps is the correct and without gaps sequence?
- After calling SBIW in R/3 one will have a tree with the a lot of menu options. Have you said which one shoud be executed? And it's not necessary to run  SBIW, it's just enough (another entry to the same screen) to run RSA5 or RSA6 as I wrote in the quoted in my reply link in order to copy a datasource on BW side.
2) activate the InfoSource on BW via RSA1.
- One should replicate the datasource in BW (most of BW is just revoked by RSA1 t-code ), then link it with the activated transfer rules (or data transformations) to the active already infosource.
Then construct data flow (transformations and data transfer packages) to data targets.
These are clearly not two steps.
