Let's say that your CSV file contains these columns:
Field Name | Position in the CSV fileColumn position | Field ID* | Example | |
| First Name | 1Cognome | 1 | Peter | |
| Last name | 2 | 2 | Smith | |
| Date of Birth | 3 | 10 | 1978-03-16 | |
| Gender | 4 | 9 | M | |
| Country | 6 | 8 | UK | |
| E-mail address | 7 | 111 | psmith02@example.com | |
