Dear sir/madam,

I am trying to upload mass functional location through lsmw by batch input recording method. All the steps are being executed correctly. But That error message is being shown in the *display ready date* , *display converted data* step.

Error message image attached herewith.

Pls help out to resolve.

Hi,

Few things to check:

1. Correct file type (.txt) is updated under step "Specify Files" under Legacy Data. 

2. Make sure file is not open in the system when performing read data and convert data steps.

3. Check if steps no from 20 to 25 is correctly performed as mentioned in below blog by one of the community members (not able to find right ID of the member).

Hope this helps. 

Thanks
