What is the difference between an Alert and an Error?

An alert is caused when the entire row is skipped due to logic preventing that row from being imported. An alert can be triggered when the:

• Exclude members found in the csv file checkbox is selected.
• Records have a member status of unsubscribed, purged, or undeliverable.

An error occurs when there is something blocking the cell or row due to validation or type. An error can be triggered when:

• Duplicate emails, memberids, or identity variables require a unique value.
• The cell content is not valid with the column (for example, you are attempting import text into a numeric value or you are using the incorrect date format in a date question).
