Which step in the CSV import process occurs immediately after segregating customer and contact information?

The step that occurs immediately after segregating customer and contact information is the validation of the imported data. This is crucial because it ensures that the data is accurate, complete, and formatted correctly before it is added to the NetSuite system. Validation checks for errors, inconsistencies, and adherence to the specified data requirements, which helps to maintain data integrity within the ERP system.

By focusing on validating the data right after the segregation of customer and contact information, organizations can identify potential issues early in the import process. This proactive measure minimizes the risk of problematic data being introduced into the system, which could lead to complications during later steps such as importing or managing records.

With this validation step in place, businesses can then proceed confidently with importing the actual records, knowing that the underlying data has undergone this essential check.
