Purpose and Benefits
The Upload Errors Report provides you with immediate feedback about the status of data uploaded to the CTC, GRID, LCSR and NMD registries submitted either through web-based transmission or via the file upload portal. Similar to the information available in the Data File Process Status Table, the report confirms whether a file was successfully uploaded (with or without warnings), rejected, or failed to load and displays details for efficient data correction and resubmission.
Note: The Upload Errors Report is especially helpful for viewing file upload status and error details across file uploads for multiple facilities in the same Corporate Account. It expedites identifying the facility specific uploads that require correction using the Data File Process Status Table (see the Data File Upload Instructions article for information about the Data File Process Table).
Example Use Cases
Example 1: A Corporate Account Administrator uploads Lung Cancer Screening Registry files for October 2020 for multiple facilities using Web-based data transmission. The next day, she checks the Upload Errors Report and sees that one file was rejected as shown in the screenshot below.

By selecting the rejected file, she can view the error details in the Errors and Warning Detail tab as shown in the screenshot below. This information will help her to quickly access the rejected file using the Data File Process Status Table, make corrections, and resubmit.

Example 2: An NMD facility has recently installed a software upgrade and the Facility Administrator notices an increase in reject files and files with Successful with Warning notices. He is able to assess error patterns and meet with the software vendor to resolve the issues creating the errors.
