Symptom
During question import at System Administration>System Management Tools>Import Data>import Entity type Questions, the job fails with error:
- The objective ID you specified either does not exist or you do not have permission to use it here
- The data in the following cell is incorrectly formatted
Environment
SAP SuccessFactors Learning Management System (LMS)
Reproducing the Issue
Login Learning Administration>System Administration>System Management Tools>Import Data>import Entity type Questions> Upload the file
Cause
The import job is used to associate Questions with existing Objective IDs. Creating new Objectives in batch is not supported.
The Objective IDs in the upload file must exist in the SuccessFactors learning system already.
Resolution
Please make sure the Objective ID exists in the LMS; and if not, create them manually first and import the file.
