Problemas de Importação

Important:

Some settings cannot be modified in the data file or import file during the data import so the dashboards can work properly. For instance:

• You cannot add new columns between already imported columns:
  • New columns must be added at the end of the file;
• Columns titles cannot be modified after the first import:
  • The columns nicknames can be modified in Input Data Format, but the dashboard's objects created previously will keep the previous nickname;
  • You must remove and add the column to update the dashboard's object nickname;
• The columns cannot be removed from the file after the first import;
• The columns position cannot be modified after the first import;
• The columns data type (text, value, date) cannot be modified after the first import;

Problems uploading a file

We could not detect any data column in the file

• Check if the file you are trying to import is in a format accepted by TaticView. See more Excel Importing Guide;
• TaticView reads the first ten columns (on the first visible tab in XLS and XLSX files) of the file to detect the data columns. In case the columns are not found, the process is aborted;
• Check if there is data in the first tab (spreadsheet) of the file you are trying to upload. We always consider the first tab;

Data preview problems

Columns with the name in blank

Columns when the name is too large

• Check if there is a column's title that exceeds the 50 characters limit. If so, reduce the column's title;

Columns with the same name

Columns with invalid expressions

• Check your file's expressions (formulas) and correct the incorrect ones;

File's columns removal

• TaticView does not support column removal after the file has been imported for the first time. The current file must have the same existing columns if you are updating the data;

Expressions with circular reference
