SYMPTOM
When you import data into Point using a Data Import template, an error appears:
”The template specified a column (column name) which does not exist in the input data file”
CAUSE
The text file you are importing has a header name that is not in the Data Import template, or the column name does not match the column title in the Data Import template.
RESOLUTION
Verify the Column In File section of the import template matches the headers of the ASCII text file.
Headers are the first row of information in the text file describing each column of data. (For example: First Name, Last Name, Address, Zip Code, Loan Amt, etc..)
If there are headers in the text file, try removing them and remove them from the Column In File section of the import template. Headers are the first row of information in the text file describing each column of data. (For example: First Name, Last Name, Address, Zip Code, Loan Amt, etc..)
In the Data Import Template, use numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, etc...) for the Column in File section.
