"The csv file was either missing fields, contained extra fields for certain rows, or certain fields contained invalid format or type". Because one or more errors was detected, NONE of the records have been added to the system. Please correct the errors listed below and reimport"
And the following error is displayed, specifying the issue:
"The fields in this header row do NOT match those defined for this section in the data model"
