Hi, You do need to specify a timezone, but it does *not* have to be the timezone of the account (see the Importing Conversions guide <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/importing-conversions> ).
In your particular case, the click occurred at: 2014-10-24 04:51:15 *GMT* Your upload has conversion time: 2014-10-24 04:51:16 *Europe/Dublin* Note that as of 2014-10-24 <http://www.timeanddate.com/time/zone/ireland/dublin>, *Europe/Dublin* was *GMT+1:00*, which means the time you specified converts to the following in GMT (subtract an hour): 2014-10-24 03:51:16 *GMT* Since that is 59 minutes 59 seconds *before* the click time, the API returns the CONVERSION_PRECEDES_CLICK error. To resolve this, make sure that you are performing the proper conversions to the timezone you are using in your upload. Let me know if this doesn't help resolve the issue.
