I get the following error when I try to prepare the import of stock items via an import scenario I created.  

 

Value was either too large or too small for a Decimal

 

The file I need to import is about 23k rows.  I copied the first 14 rows from the original file with the same headers and those 14 prepared and imported just fine.  I think it has to be some sort of formatting error but I cannot figure it out.  Has anyone else had this issue and was able to resolve it?

 

Thanks,

Jess

I have found that with this error message, there is usually a field in excel that is not formatted as text but contains a large number. 
Like an item code that is 123456789012


The excel cell might be displaying the number in exponential notation 
 


I’ve got the same problem since updating to 2021 R1. 


My issue happened to be a reference code from another system in the format of an exponential expression 9508e triggered Acumatica to think this was an extremally large number resulting in an error. 


Hi @rsternberg96 

 

See below-attached screenshot, if your excel contains invalid data it throws an error Value was either too large or too small for a Decimal
