Excel Data Load
Hi wesfletcher,
When you do the upload of a table from excel or any type of file the first 200 rows are used to define the type of field that the column as so if the first row is only number it will give that row a number type format when it tries to convert the rest of the column when it encounters a "-" it gives and error.
You can solve this by just choosing the second step "Changed Types" and formatting the account column to text and your issue should be solved.
