MSIR.0437 Value of (string) for field (field) maps to SIRFIELD exception value or different format pair
This message indicates that an LAI statement was issued in a FLOD program, and the unloaded file contained value string for loading into field field which matched a primary, alternate, or ERROR format. The load did not succeed, because field is related to another field, field2, and there is a conflict among the exception values, primary, alternate, and/or error formats specified on a SIRFIELD RELATE command naming the two fields.
value, when converted to a format for field2, results in value2:
- If value2 is an exception value for field2, the update is not allowed (because, since value matched a format, it is not also an exception value).
- Otherwise, it is a conflict with formats. value2 matches an earlier format for field2 than the format which matched value.
This is a very rare error message; if you receive it you should review your use of a valid date as an exception value, and your use of the ALTERNATES and ERROR clauses, as discussed in the Sir2000 Field Migration Facility Reference Manual. If this still presents a problem for you, please call Technical Support.
