After selecting the upload file and clicking on [Upload], a log of any errors is displayed. On this screen, make any necessary corrections, re-validations and complete the import.

When activity start dates get modified during DM activity import, all the open submittals linked with the activity will be updated with the new start date, and the schedule dates will be re-calculated accordingly.
