Error when importing into module with numbered list as dimension

Yes, because on a numbered list and using a list formatted line item, the member could be in several places within the hierarchy. For example, if the Display Name is list formatted, how would it know which member to update?

Additionally, I would not use the #ID, use the code.

Hi @rob_marshall ,

Thank you for your quick reply.

I would think Anaplan stores both the hashtag code (unique identifier) and display name when using a list-formatted line item, but apparently it doesn't.

I used the code instead of the #ID and it also worked.

One more question: although I only have 5 items in my saved view, in the mapping tab of the L3 SKU-Plant list, Anaplan tells me it can not preload the mapping (Manual mapping is unavailable when number of items exceeds 5000). See screenshots attached.

How is that possible?

No, it does not store both the Display Name and the #ID, just the #ID. And for your 2nd question, while your view may only have 5 members in it, how many members does the list actually have?

And on the last part, is your source of the import a view or just the module?

My source of the import is a saved view, filtered on these 5 items.

The list in itself does indeed have much more members, but then again, I would expect to only see the 5 members selected in the saved view.

Because it is reading the entire list.

There seems to be something strange, now it is no longer working, neither using the CODE, neither using the NAME for mapping… Strange because this afternoon it worked. Now I again get the error message "Import into DAT1_SKU_Plant Master Data module unsuccessful: The dimensions in the target module do not match the import definition."

I really don't understand

When importing into a numbered list, you should only use code. Do you have the code in the target module as well? Can you show us the mappings?

I did not change anything overnight, ran the import action again this morning and now it works again. There seems to be inconsistent behavior in Anaplan, I will need to report this as a bug.

I only use the code for mapping. See mapping import definition attached. I import code of L3 SKU-Plant master data item into target module with list L3 SKU-Plant master data.
