Hi there,

I have imported a registry plan into AtoM 2.6 via a csv import using the command line. When the identifier value is 0 (zero), the identifier is not imported and the dedicated field stays empty.
But the 0 (zero) works when I manually fill in the identifier. However, it is not shown in the tree structure (image attached).
Does anybody know how to deal with this issue?
Thank you

Best,

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer, 

Interesting find! I've managed to reproduce the issue you describe locally, and I have filed a bug ticket. See: 
I noticed that manually adding "00" instead will display as expected. While most spreadsheet applications seem to auto-format a cell with "00" back to "0" (at least, this is what I found in Excel and LibreOffice Calc), if you confirm that "00" is actually in the CSV (for example, by opening it in a text editor and editing if necessary), then this will also import. 

Not ideal, but it might be a workaround you could use for now, until we are able to address the bug?

Cheers,
