Importing is not updating correctly

Sravan_Kumar

Hi Friends,

I am trying to import this .csv file into my module.

But I can't do so.

I think I need to create a Col ID.

 

My ques: will the newly created Col ID able to match data in another module with different ID?

 

I will brief my problem elaborately, in case you find any difficulty in understanding.

Hi @Sravan_Kumar 

 

I have tried to create import action as per your import file

Template in csv format

 

2. Create a module with Product as a dimension and one line item Unit sold

If you want sales type then add as dimension

3. Create import action:

Make sure set the correct mapping for time period:

 

Output after running the action:

 

 

Hope this helps!

Thanks

Akhtar

Hi @Sravan_Kumar ,

 

I think that you are not mapping TIME Dimension correctly in the mapping Tab. you have to choose Period  to M-Y  then it will import successfully.

 

Thanks,

Hi @Sravan_Kumar ,

 

Newly created Col ID will only be able to match data if you use the same dimension in the other module or you build some mapping mechanism such that newly created Col ID can match/lookup the dimension in another module.

Okay @Rashmih.

 

Please tell me, how will I import this file.

Hi @Sravan_Kumar ,

 

Do you have Products as a dimension? 

You can create a module with Product and Time as Dimension and Units Sold as line item (Format Number) and then import the data.

Thanks @Rashmih & @naushad786

It worked correctly.

 

Thanks @Akhtar.shahbaz again for the detailed screenshots.
