Error when importing a list where parent name = child name

menegasso

Hi,

 

I'm facing the error "New property combination found but name or code already exists" when importing a list where the parent name is equal to the child name, but with different codes. I've attached an example using a hypothetical Region->Country-> Location sharing the same names within all levels and the error presented. 

Does anyone know how to load the lists with the parent assignments in this scenario?

 

Thanks,

André

Thanks Rob, I've changed the lists to a numbered list and worked. 

Meanwhile we tried another option, to run the list load separate in two steps:

1 - Load the child list assigning the source "code" field for both Name and Code target fields, and leaving parent without assignment;

2 - Reload the child list, but now assigning the code, parent and name correctly.

This way we are able to load, bypassing the duplicate names validation. Do you know why this two step load worked? 

 

Thanks,

André
