What are the mandatory fields while importing data?

While importing data, all the mandatory fields in CRM (for the record type) need to be mentioned in the import file. For example, if Lead Name and Company Details are mandatory to add a lead in CRM, you need to have these details mentioned in the import file as well. Only then will you be able to import the records. See also Import Data.
