Hi,

I think system will automatically handles this situation.

because if data type is not matching or legacy data doe't fit into the sap field system will automatically rise an error.

Hi,

After uploading the data in sap internal table apply loop on internal table and match the data type. if data type is not matched raise the error message.

Hi Rajaram,

What method are you using to upload legacy data ? BDC, LSMW...

In LSMW there are places where you can insert validations and even change the format to match the SAP system format.

In BDC you can code the validation directly in the program
