You can import lines into an agreement from a file in comma-separated value (CSV) format.

## Import lines from a CSV file

1. In an agreement, select the **Import** tab, and then select **New Import**.
2. Drag and drop the desired CSV file.
3. In the **Settings** section, define a **Column** separator, a **Decimal** separator, and **Date Format** values to fit your country format.

          
          

  - Your implementation team can define default values for a **Column** separator, a **Decimal** separator, and **Date Format** when configuring a **CSV Import component**.
  - You can change those default values and adjust them to your implementation.
4. Select **Next**.
5. In the **Mapping** section, map the columns in the CSV file to the columns in the entity table. The columns in the CSV file appear in alphabetical order.

          
          

  - Your implementation team defines the **Mapping** settings when configuring the **CSV Import**.
  - You can leave one or more columns unmapped.
  - After you have mapped a column, you can either change its mapping or unmap it entirely.
6. Select **Import**.

The system imports the lines from the CSV file. When the system completes the import command, it will launch a message indicating a successful import of the lines, or an error message that there are failed rows.

You can further check the details of the failed rows in the **Import Log**.

### Check and fix the import errors in the Import Log

1. In the **Import Log**, go to the **Error File** column, and select the error file link.
2. Select to **Download** the file, and then select **Save**.
3. Open the file and check the details of the row(s) that failed to get imported. You can fix the errors in the CSV file and re-upload the file.
