Cause

When adding filters to date columns in a data import job transformation, it is necessary to filter them using their original value, not the final result in the HANA database. 

Resolution

  1. Remove the existing transformation in this import job.
  2. In data source of this import job, find out the original values that are required to be replaced.
  3. In SAC import job transformation, replace this original values with the desired value.
  4. Run this import job again.
