12. While uploading a file with valid telephone numbers for outbound dial, why does the message "No valid data is present" appear?
This error commonly appears while trying to upload numbers from an Excel file. To avoid that, enter
the phone numbers in a uniformly formatted manner with no spaces in between the digits. Also check that there are no blank rows in between the numbers.
Also note that the prefix "0" is lost in Excel while uploading if the telephone numbers have been formatted as "numbers".
It is better to format the cell property as Text to preserve the prefix. This factor becomes critical in case of STD/ISD numbers.
