Import error (parent item has a child item that is in a different list)

Maxime.Schaller

Hi all,

I'm getting the following error in one of my import:

 

Import into Hub_0_Product_Group Marketing L8 # list failed: Parent item has a child item that is in a different list:
You can only add a child to a parent item, if any existing children of that parent item belong to the same list.

 

Do you have any tip/advice to detect and fix the root cause of the issue ?

I'm struggeling on that.

 

Thanks,

Have you tried using a numbered list? 

If so, and the error persists it would appear that you are trying to create a parallel hierarchy.

 

Create a duplicate second hierarchy using the desired parents and children ( this parallel hierarchy will contain a duplicate parent and the second child )

 

Create a mapping module which maps the two hierarchies using the parallel hierarchy's child list as the dimension and the primary hierarchy's parent list as a list formatted line item. Establish the relationship between parent and child and use this mapping when creating aggregation using the parallel hierarchy.
