Additional comments
The number of custom columns defined must exactly match the number of columns detected in the Excel sheet. For example, if the Excel file contains four columns, you must define exactly four custom column definitions. Defining fewer (such as three) or more (such as five) will result in an error. Additionally, if the selected data type for any custom column does not match the actual data contained in that column of the Excel file, the system will return a type conversion error.
