The following should be setup/ready before the import:

1. Consumption Site - customer should have an existing consumption site. Customer Number is used as the mapping for ts_cat_1.

2. Devices - consumption site should have an attached devices. Device Tank Monitor with Serial # (tx_serialnum) is paired with customer number where the combination is used as mapping for import. 
Alternatively, a Tank Serial # can be matched if a Tank Monitor Serial # is not found.

3. Clock Reading - a reading date entry should also exists in Clock Reading as this is being mapped as rpt_date_ti.

The date should also not exist in Events tab of the Consumption Site.
