* Please pay special attention to the date format of these date/time fields when saving changes to your import .CSV file. Excel and other spreadsheet editors will often adjust the date format using your computer's regional date/time settings when you save changes to your .CSV file. This will create import failures if the date information in your import files is not in the expected format. To learn how to correct this, please read this article.
