You can include custom fields for WBS tickets in your CSV import.

When tickets are imported via CSV, **only the automatic progress rate calculation within the parent-child task structure is performed.**

The following automatic updates are **NOT** performed:

- Automatic updates to other items following a ticket status update (e.g., actual dates, progress rate).
- Automatic status updates for parent/child tickets.
