Issues with export/import in config package

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 487

Greetings,

We recently started having issues with the import/export system in the configuration packages pages. We use it when we need to modify big amounts of data, as there does not seem to be any other way? 

We now have issues where exporting a table, and directly importing the file will put the import in error. It seems it is shifting / expecting other column configurations than what it is exporting.

Is this normal behavior? Any way to know what he is expecting at import if not what he just exported?

Cheers

    do following for general testing: first export one record using your config. package and an according filter, then change one value in the exported excel doc, save, import that excel doc. with the same config. package. check if that works correctly.

    if it does not work, check the error log. which error in detail do you get?

    a problem can be readonly and calculated fields.
