Task Import File Layout

The data file must be formatted correctly in order to be imported by the TimeForce system. The file format is displayed on the right-hand side of the main "Import Tasks" screen.

IMPORTANT: Unless specifically noted as "Optional," all fields in the import file require a value. To skip a certain type of data, insert a "0" into the field instead of leaving the field blank.
