Note: At some point above (either between steps 6 and 7, or after step 7), you will be able to see if any of your data was not imported. It could be because there are duplicates, or because an email address was input improperly. It’s a good idea to screen capture this and share this back with the SGS Data team, as it means that there are some incorrect ROSI records.
