Cause
- Usually Bank Directory File Upload for SAP Template is done through a .csv file format, but the uploaded file is other format (For Example : .txt format).
- The maximum file size exceeds 25 MB.
Resolution
- The bank directory file must be a text file in character-separated values (CSV) format.
- If necessary, edit the file using a spreadsheet or text editor, then convert the file into the correct format while saving your changes.
- The CSV format requires that each field value be separated from the next by a semicolon (;), and that each row is one line in the text file, followed by a line break.
- Also ensure that order of the bank data in your file is in a specific order.
- Before uploading the file, make sure to have the file in correct format with the fields in the file in specific order.
- If bank directory file size is larger than 25 MB, compress the file into ZIP format before uploading or divide the data into smaller files.
