SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RSDD_XLS_MSG - Excel Upload Messages

• Message number: 006

• Message text: Normalized value '&1' from cell (column &2 row &3) is not of type &4

What causes this issue?

The content of a cell does not match the data type of the column.
The column type is determined based on the first data row and is set for
the entire column.
The cell content is copied in a normalized format and can therefore
deviate from the visible content of the Excel sheet.
If the column is of type 'Standard' (General), and the content in the
first cell of the first data row can be interpreted as a number, the
column is formatted numerically. If this is not the case, the column is
interpreted as character-type.

System Response

The load process is terminated. Previously loaded rows are discarded and
are therefore not transferred.

How to fix this error?

Correct the content of the relevant cell or change the format of the
relevant column.

Procedure for System Administrators
