Testing 
To test if all requirements for the import are met use the
Testing step.
The test for the first data line is shown below.
Import 
With the last step you can start to import the data into the database. If you want to repeat the import with the same settings and data of the same structure, you can save a schema of the current settings. There are 86 lines that were not imported due to duplicate entries (see below).
The failed lines are caused by duplicate entries, i.e. the resource was already imported for the descriptor.
