Section C - Vouchers and credit cards

Importing benefit information is usually 'additive' (ie, you update what is already there). It is important to remember that if you have 'blank' columns, the system will map the column and overwrite existing data with 'blank' data if it can. Although this is useful for removing content, we would advise not having banks columns unless it is intentional.

If you are importing based on payroll number of NI number, those fields are mandatory and can't be ignored.
