**IMPORTANT: Before uploading your file, consider the following:**

- Make sure your file is in **.csv format**
- Check that all **required fields** are included in your file
- Verify your information is in the **correct format**
- Make sure that you have only **one worksheet** in your file
- Ensure that your data **don’t contain** any special characters (including commas, dollar sign or other). **For example:** Comments should not contain text like “Expense on book, clothing” and amounts should not be entered with the currency symbol “$5.00”
