Physical Inventory Import File - Error Message (#2147217900)

Feb 05, 2009 2 Replies

We have just finished counting inventory and I want to upload the physical counts . I am trying to import a physical inventory file (Tab delimited) but I get the following error message before the import is aborted:



Error #-2147217900 Cannot resolve the collation conflict between "Latin1_General_CI_AS" and "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" in the equal to operation. (Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server) (SQL State: 42000) (NativeError: 468) No Help file available UPDATE [##ST_Validation_1] SET ImportStatus = 3 , ItemID = Item.ID FROM Item INNER JOIN [##ST_Validation_1] ON Item.ItemLookupCode [##ST_Validation_1].ItemLookupCode



Any insight into this would be appreciated.



Thanks, Gil



GOto Store Administrator - log in wit SA password. Then access Database => Colation Setting - and when you get he screen press Enter to make the database Collation and SQL collation become the same.

Then all will work.

Be wary if this is in an HQ Environment. if you start changing collations and HQ/Store collations are different, then HQ Client comms may stop working.

From within SO Admin, Database > Collation - Check the Server Collation is the same as the Database collation.

All Server/Database collations should be identical across the business.
