[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Import Error Message Suggestion

[Jaime Margalotti]

The error message currently driving me crazy is "archival_object/dates/0/
end must not be before begin."  I understand what it means, but finding the
single incorrectly typed normalized date in the container list of a long
finding aid is nearly impossible.  If error messages could include which
line in the finding aid caused them to fail to import, it would be an
enormous help.

Many thanks,
Jaime

Good morning, Greg,

Would you please send Chris (chris.fitzpatrick at lyrasis.org<mailto:
chris.fitzpatrick at lyrasis.org>) and me the EAD instance where you
encountered this error message?  That will help us to give a more accurate
statement of what that error message means.  It will also help us with an
ongoing task:  to improve import error messages.

Thanks,

Brad W.
