Hello Team,

I'm getting the following warnings after successfully uploaded the data file using List Import type. I'm not sure about 'parent list item does not exist in the hierarchy'. Kindly help me if you have any idea how to resolve this kind of issues ?

Hello Kevin, Thank you very much for your response.
I'm trying to send you the private message but getting the below error when I click the submit button. I don't see any highlighted errors and its just a plain text message in a body.

Correct the highlighted errors and try again.

@aprentice are you importing using an Excel file or some other file type? Do you have a screenshot of the entire error message, by chance?

Hi Kevin,

I am using a txt file, I can send a copy of it if you need, this is the error in full below.

Thanks for helping

Interestingly, when I go to create these entries manually in List Management:

It tells me it already exists, but I can't view it in List Management, nor does it appear in the drop down where the field is displayed (Invoice Line Items)

Apologies, I'm finding things as I further investigate here!

Manually adding what I needed to the List didn't work, as it appears somewhere hidden it already exists, (which may explain the funny list import error, if it's already there somewhere in the back end, but not the front end), so I tried re-uploading the same doc but with a . at the end of each code, and that's done the job, my users can now continue submitting invoices (the field in question was mandatory)

I still need to somehow resolve this though, as the code is linked to our GL in our ERP, which obviously doesn't have a . at the end of each cost centre.

Thanks

Have you tried showing Deleted list items in List Management?  Perhaps HTS had been used in the past and deleted.
