I am facing an issue with exporting and importing a csv file. So I have a file that I am exporting with data for 12 months (Dates are formatted as Y-M, (i.e. 19-Jul) in the exported csv file). Then when I try and import the same file using custom mapping (Y-M) for Time, I get a failure dump and an error which reads: Import into module failed. "The column headers in the file you are attempting to import do not match the import definition. . . Expected 2 or 4-digit year in date/period"


Any help would be appreciated.

    Ah I see that; however, there will be multiple users uploading multiple files using the export and import created so manually updating the date format in excel is not an option. Is there any way to get the export to export the time in the desired Y-M format instead of D-M.

    Hey Kavin,

     

    I tried your suggestion; however, I got the error "Invalid date or timescale identifier".
