If excel can have empty number field then ensure in your transform map check this checkbox

I assume you have configured the Number column

@SAS21 

your excel doesn't have any INC number?

Is that what you expect in file?

If you always want to insert then remove that field map?

Hello @SAS21 

 

You will use field mapping on reference field just give which field you will use to identify reference record. In below example we are mapping value from source table for column "created by" to target table column "caller" now while mapping we are checking with refernce field column as email if match found this entry happens else it get ignore if choice action selected is ignore if created option is selected it will create a new user entry on reference table.

Referenced fields in data to import may not always be references to a sys_id, or a name. This video explains how to solve this problem. Also covered: Importing selected rows from an import set table. Timecodes 0:00 Intro 0:14 The import file and target table 1:55 The transform map 3:04 Transform 1

Hi @SAS21 

 

What is required to generate the transactional data? You can do this by importing XML from another instance.
