Sublist Fields
At least one row is required in this record's sublist. In the Import Assistant, this sublist is referred to as Manufacturing Cost Template Cost Detail. (In the UI, the sublist is labeled simply Costs — to see this, choose Lists > Supply Chain > Manufacturing Cost Templates > New).
Each record in the sublist must consist of a pair of values, as follows. Note that this sublist is not keyed.
