Re: Handle Duplicate Request IDs By: Update Old Record with New Record's Data
Hello All, On a old computer, I've managed to upgrade to 7.6.04 tools and now everything is ok. The difference is in OS. The old commuter has an XP SP3, while the new one runs Win 7 on 32. ' 'Ignore required field'' This option is valid only for noncore fields. In general I use factory settings and it works OK.

Re: Handle Duplicate Request IDs By: Update Old Record with New Record's Data
Hi, Possible reason behind getting error could be the null value for required core field, In your case its Submitter field (ID: 2) So need to check whether there are null values for required field in .arx file being used for importing. Also there could be problem with the incorrect criteria that user is providing. Please verify the request ID in the csv file & its format. With Import tool there is an option to 'Ignore required field'. If you enable that option, mandatory field error will get resolved. -- Regards, ITSM Support Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.
