-
In case the custom field is a checkbox - you can make any text entry like true-false, yes-no, 0-1 or off-on.
-
In case the custom field is a date field - enter date in yy/mm/dd format.
-
In case the custom field is a picklist or drop-down list - make sure all the values present in the list are entered in CSV file.
