Summary :
Users encountering issues with the Excel upload functionality in manual overhead cost planning are advised to verify certain configurations. Firstly, ensure clarity between "Generic file name" and "File description," as discrepancies here impact data processing; the description links the file to the planning layout. Users can either explicitly specify the file description at upload or use a generic filename pre-set in the layout maintenance. For effective and error-free uploads in .TXT format, save Excel files as "Text (Tab delimited)" and remove any totals rows to prevent the upload termination error K8013. It is critical to ensure that no blocked objects exist within the files as it leads to upload termination. Lastly, problems might occur if the Excel upload seems slow or reports successful uploads with no posted data, potentially due to the absence of input-enabled cells or the system’s inability to handle mass data efficiently. For further details or specific cases like performance issues or missing data post-upload, refer to SAP Notes 212203, 413032, and transaction SM50 as needed.
