What This Tool Checks
Common Target Import Errors
Issues you might encounter when importing Source data to Target - and how we solve them
Missing Transaction Creation Date
The 'Transaction creation date' column is required but not found
File exported without date column
Re-export with all columns selected
Ensure you export from Seller Hub > Payments > Transaction Report
Go to Seller Hub, Payments tab, and download the full Transaction Report
Invalid Date Format
Date columns contain unparseable values or wrong format
01/15/26 (ambiguous format)
Jan-15-2026 (eBay standard format)
Don't modify dates in Excel before validating
Re-export from eBay without opening in Excel first
Missing Order Number
The 'Order number' column is required but contains empty values
(blank cell in Order number)
11-12345-67890
Each transaction must reference an order number
This may indicate file corruption - re-export from eBay
Invalid Transaction Type
The 'Type' column contains unrecognized values
Sale (incorrect)
Order (correct)
Valid types: Order, Refund, Payout, Fee, Credit, Hold, Shipping label, Other
Check if file was manually edited or corrupted
Missing Gross Transaction Amount
Required 'Gross transaction amount' column is missing or empty
(blank cell in amount column)
108.00

Ensure you're downloading the complete Transaction Report
Invalid Currency Value
Currency columns contain non-numeric values or wrong format
$108.00 or #REF!
108.00
Currency values must be numeric only (no $ symbols)
Re-export or remove currency symbols using search/replace
Fee Values Not Negative
Fee columns should typically contain negative values
15.85 (positive fee)
-15.85 (negative fee)
eBay exports fees as negative amounts (they reduce your balance)
If fees are positive, the file may have been manually edited
