How to resolve the import error - New property combination found but name or code already exists?

Hi all,
I'm trying to use an import action where I have a unique key in the source (Source is a module in another Anaplan model)

This unique key is a concatenation of 6 parameters.

I'm getting an error - New property combination found but name or code already exists

I've checked the source & there are no duplicates. I've also exported it to excel & double checked that there are no duplicates there in the unique id column.

The import action mapping is just based on code-

Any ideas/solutions on how to tackle this and why I'm facing this error to begin with since its a unique code always and it should just show updated for a code that exists?

Appreciate your help!

Hi @jagadishdash ,
Thanks for helping out on this.

I got to the root cause of it, it was an additional space at the start of the code. So even though it was within 60 characters the 2 codes became " xyz" and "xyz" thereby separate if we count the space as a character too but while importing Anaplan ignores the space & hence was giving an error for duplicate :)

Based on what you've explained, it seems that the concatenated combinations might be exceeding the 60-character limit, and the ending of the concatenation is different. This discrepancy could be causing only part of the code to be supported during the import process. While this might not be the case, and you may have already checked it, I'm just thinking out loud to ensure that this isn't the issue.
