Fatal error during snapshot import

[Former Member]

Hi everyone,

as I'm trying to work myself through the demand sensing setup, I have to upload a snapshot with historical data of my forecast key figure.

I tried to use the template for snapshots, which looks in my case like ...

and with *_SS being my snapshot key figure.

When trying to upload the file through an import job for snapshots, I always receive the following error:

"306,E,6,Could not read file,For batch ID 306, unable to read file.  Reason: Fatal error. More info in table /IBP/IMTCLOG"

Somehow my template seems to be corrupted.

*EDIT: the import works fine on other planning areas. So the error must be related to the planning area, time profile, ... ?!*

Does anybody have an idea? I'm grateful for every little hint and help.

Cheers

Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,

would be good to see the whole file but this one line that you show looks OK to me.

Here are some points that you can check:

1. Are all the dates that are mentioned in the snapshot file to be found in the time profile?
2. The uploaded snapshot should not contain future data (as far as I am aware)
3. Does the key figure FCSTAT contain data also for future periods? One data point in the future would be enough...
4. Revision Dates are on a weekly or max 4-weekly iteration?
