This item has been identified as an outstanding known issue. A workaround is provided until the issue is officially fixed.
Issue
A module-to-module import fails with the following error:
"Import into <XX> module failed: The dimensions in the target module do not match the import definition"
The specific conditions that cause the error are as follows:
- Source module has an extra dimension (List)
- Target module has a Subsidiary View
- Both source and target Line Items are of the same format (Text, Time Period, List)
Note: If the format in the 3rd point above is either Boolean or Number, the module-to-module import will be successful because booleans and numbers are not truly blank when they have no value. They are set to False/0.
Workaround
To workaround this issue:
- There must be a cell value in the source Line Item.
- Add source module list as an 'Applies To' to the target Line Item and re-map the import.
If this workaround is not suitable in your use case, please contact Support at support@anaplan.com.
