Hi,

to use an excel file u need to save the excel file according to what u want to use as a separator between the fileds in the data. Whether a comma or space or a tab. While saving go to save as and specify the format u want and then in the step to specify the file in LSMW give the path of that file and again specify what separator you have used.

Reward if helpful.

Hi,

It's not advisable to use the Excel file to upload the data .. u save the excel file as tab delimited file & upload.....

As per my knowledge , In LSMW , u cant upload data using excel file

Reward Points if it is Useful....

hi,

there is no need to save your excel file into text or binary form

<b>LSMW takes it directly</b>

just specifiy the file name when it ask for file format

it should be <b>text file</b>. and <b>code page is ASCII</b>.

if this is not working on your side

then just do follow these steps,

1) save the Excel as <b>*.csv</b> with a delimiter e.g. <b>semi-colon (';')</b>

2) read the <b>CSV-file as plain text file</b>

3) split the line at the delimer <b>(';')</b>

just forgot to mention, do reward points if it helps.

hi,

First save your excel file with <b>.csv</b> format.

then go to <b>specify files</b> step of LSMW

select Legacy Data On PC

give file path and name

FILE CONTENTS->check Data for One source structure

DELIMITER : Comma->enter
