Q&A:

Q: There is an error when uploading the template I want to import. What could cause this to happen?

A: Possible errors could include:
General:

Missing a required field

For time entries:

  • Can not find case

  • Can not find user

Cases:

  • Case name not unique

Q: There is an error when uploading the template I want to import. What should I do?

A: Make sure the template is saved in the CSV format.

Q: I am getting an error saying my file is too big. How do I fix it?

A: Open the file, copy and paste some of the data and headers into a new CSV file, and then upload files one at a time.

Q: What is the difference between a failure on an import and an error on an import?

A: An import failure is when the whole file and all the rows fail to import. This could happen because of the file type, size, or missing a required column. Errors happen on an import when only some of the rows don't import. These errors could be caused by missing a required field or trying to add a time entry for a user that does not exist in the system
