• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PRA/RESPONSIBILITY120 - Select only *.csv file for upload. ?

  The SAP error message /PRA/RESPONSIBILITY120 Select only *.csv file for upload typically indicates that the system is expecting a CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file format for the upload process, but the file being uploaded does not meet this requirement. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect File Format: The file you are trying to upload is not in the CSV format. It could be in a different format such as Excel (.xls, .xlsx), text (.txt), or any other unsupported format.
  File Extension: The file may have a .csv extension but is not actually formatted as a CSV file. This can happen if the file was saved incorrectly or if it contains incompatible characters or formatting.
  File Corruption: The file might be corrupted or improperly structured, leading to the system not recognizing it as a valid CSV file.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check File Format: Ensure that the file you are trying to upload is indeed a CSV file. You can open the file in a text editor (like Notepad) to verify its contents. A valid CSV file should have data separated by commas.
  Save as CSV: If the file is in another format (like Excel), open it in the appropriate application and use the "Save As" option to save it specifically as a CSV file. Make sure to select the correct CSV format (e.g., CSV UTF-8).
  Rename File: If the file has the correct format but the extension is incorrect, rename the file to ensure it ends with .csv.
  Check for Special Characters: Ensure that the data within the CSV file does not contain special characters that may cause issues during the upload process.
  File Size and Content: Check if the file size is within acceptable limits and that it contains the expected data structure as required by the SAP system.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the specific SAP module documentation for guidelines on file uploads, including required formats and data structures.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for insights and solutions from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  Testing: If possible, test the upload process with a known good CSV file to ensure that the issue is with the file being uploaded and not with the SAP system itself.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully upload your CSV file to the SAP system.
