Data changing when loading CSV into Infocube

Data changing when loading CSV into Infocube

We were loading data from a CSV file into the Infocube, and it went on successfully, but the thing is, it is showing different results. The total in the CSV file is around 70 million, but it is showing 5 million. The same with the other field, but only one column is showing the correct value. What do you think should be done to rectify the error, and where is the error?

On occasion strange things do happen when uploading CSV files into SAP via custom or even standard programs. Without being able to see your file structure, I'd suggest splitting the file into smaller pieces and then trying the divide and conquer approach. You may be pleasantly surprised with the result!
