These occur when a system or backend processing issue prevents a file from being submitted successfully, even though the uploaded data is valid.

File upload fix: Submit files

Error message - Error in running Scalar SQL Command.

If you've encountered this error on any rows whilst submitting a file in File Upload, please re-upload the failed rows and continue through the Validation and Submission process again.

If this error persists upon re-upload or you have multiple pages of failed rows, please contact us via the Access Digital Assistant and request to speak to a support agent for assistance with your upload.

Ensure to confirm the time of the error, the exact steps you were taking and the area within Access PaySuite DDCMS you were when the error occurred, including the URL and screenshots where appropriate.


Customer upload fix: Columns do not match template

Error message - We're sorry but we were unable to upload your file. The number of columns imported does not match the number of columns in the template.

This happens when your file has a different number of columns than the template expects, usually caused by adding, removing or rearranging columns, or using an outdated version of the template.

Following the steps below will resolve the issue and allow your file to import successfully.

  1. Download a new copy of the Guidance Template.

  2. Copy your data into the new template.

    📌Note: Do not add, remove or rearrange any columns. The column count in your file must match the template exactly, otherwise the upload will fail. Always use a freshly downloaded copy of the template. Reusing a saved version can also cause this error if the column structure has changed since you last downloaded it.

  3. Check your number fields and remove any currency symbols, such as £.

  4. Save and re-upload the file.

If the error persists, please contact us via the Access Digital Assistant and request to speak to a support agent.
