Import statuses (Sources/Mandates)
Sources and External Mandates can be created via import. Imports have statuses. Once an import is validated and processed, it creates the desired objects.
In LotusPay, you can create sources (if you have API access) and external mandates
(by invite only) by uploading files in the dashboard. Imports get validated and then processed.
To view the import, go to Settings > Imports and then select the import that you want to view.
Import statuses
Import is created in validating status. If all rows are bad it goes to invalidated. A validated_full or validated_partial import can be cancelled or you can click on process to take it to processing, then it reaches processed. Refresh the page to see the current status.
validating
The import is being verified by our system. This takes a few seconds for less than 100 rows, or a few minutes for thousands of records.
Possible previous statuses: none
Possible next statuses: validated_full or validated_partial
invalidated
The import contains one or more bad rows. The bad rows cannot be processed. If the import has max 500 bad rows, you can continue to process the good rows only by clicking on 'Process'.
Possible previous statuses: validating
Possible next statuses: cancelled, processing
validated_full or validated_partial
The import contains all or some good rows. You can continue to create the objects by clicking on 'Process'. You can review the errors on this page.
Possible previous statuses: validating
Possible next statuses: cancelled, processing
cancelled
You clicked on 'Cancel' on a validated_partial or validated_full import, or you left it two days and our system automatically cancelled it. Nothing further can be done with this import. You should always cancel unused partially invalidated imports to prevent anyone from accidentally processing them.
Possible previous statuses: invalidated, validated_partial, validated_full
Possible next statuses: none
processing
You clicked on the 'Process' button and the validated_partial or validated_full import is creating objects.
Possible previous statuses: invalidated, validated_partial, validated_full
Possible next statuses: processed
processed
The import is complete and all good rows have created objects.
Possible previous statuses: processing
Possible next statuses: none
