What do I get errors at the time of uploading files?

How do I leave some fields in my source file unmapped?

What are some common reasons a record might fail to import?

Why can't I process potential duplicate records as part of importing records?

When I import subjects, why don't they appear in the list of subjects?

Why are numbers rounded when I import data?

Why do I receive the "An error has occurred. For more information, contact your system administrator" message when I am creating duplicate detection rules, running duplicate detection, importing records, or saving data maps?

If I receive errors in the Failures tab of the Import file, how do I know which errors indicate that a record was not imported, and which indicate that a record was imported with missing relationship or state information?
