You cannot upload it as the data element MATNR (which stores the material number) is of length 18 (type CHAR ; length 18).

You need to shorten the material number to be <=18.

Yo have 19 characters in your material number, and that's why the system put simbol ! there. The system can't enter 19 characters into 18 character fields,
