Better Feedback After Failed Import
When an import fails (donations, donors, packages, bidders), there is no indication of why the failure occurred (other than duplicates). It would be very helpful to get feedback as to what caused records to fail to import.

You can now download a file after your import which contains the records that failed to import, along with details as to why.

This is so frustrating. If the system can tell me that 3 patrons were duplicates and 8 were errors and not imported, it should be able to tell me which ones! Now I have to go back and compare 468 patrons one.by.one. Ridiculous.

Generating a report flagging the lines that failed, and an error code to indicate what field was an issue would be helpful.

Agreed, especially when importing patrons. I've run into the problem where it will say 17 (out of the 100s of names) I've uploaded couldn't be added. Then I have to go back through the system and check it agains my excel doc. SOOOO time consuming!!
