+ | ===== Import Errors ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | You may send us your import file for error checking prior to your import. We will check your file for errors and send it back to you. However, should your import file contains an error (e.g. invalid credit card number), then the import wizard will stop at that row. The wizard will prompt you to remove all successfully imported rows prior to the error. This will ensure you do not re-import the same rows when you fix the error. | ||
