Character encoding: UTF-8 (without BOM)
The line separator is the character set CRLF: Carriage Return (carriage return) and Line Feed (line feed). The last line may or may not end with this separator.
The file must have a first "header" line reminding the names of the fields defined below.
Columns are separated by the character ,
Each string value can be surrounded by double quotes ". If a value contains the character , it becomes necessary. If the " character must appear inside a surrounded value, the character must be doubled.
For further details on the CSV format, see the RFC 4180.
The file name must be in the form of: printing_information_YYYYMMDD.csv (ex : “printing_information_20241201.csv”).
You can remove optional columns altogether, or change the order of the columns, although the names of the columns must remain unchanged.
If you want to update the values for a period, you can do so in a subsequent file.
