(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 681

Hi Experts,

I was trying to import Worker entity. In HR Share parameter I have given Personnel number sequence format as #### (Five digits). In the worker excel file if I give Personnel number as Six digits or anything which is not in line with parameter, system still successfully import the file.  I remember for some other entities earlier I also find same behavior. Could you please help me why data entities allow to import other than what define in parameters and could we stopped this.

    Hi Ankit,

    Can you check if it is because of "Set based processing" check box on data entity?

    This behavior might be due to the string size set for the field. So, it will allow up to the field size specified. Can you check the field size and change that accordingly? I guess that should fix the issue. To stop that either we need to change the size of the string accordingly how you set in the number sequence or you need to write the code in validate field or validate write of entity.
