 +==== 1b. Prepare CSV file ==== 
 + 
 +Here is an example of CSV file which can be used for importing (or updating) roles, setting their role attributes, guarantees (by user, or by role) and criticalityTo use this CSV file, create a new identity with user name "user_login", and a new role with code "role_code"

 </code> </code>
  
-As you can see roles column can be single or multivalued. For multivalued roles, description will be added to every role.+As you can see roles column can contain single or multiple values (separated by a line; the separator can be specified in the settings of the LRT). For multivalued roles, values from the same row will be added to every role. The only exception here is role criticality which cannot be multivalued. 
 +CSV file can have optional number of columns: column names are specified in setup of LRT. 
 + 
 +The result of this LRT used with this CSV file should: 
 +  * 4 new roles (Manager-A, LAY-SP, CORE-CLOSE, AB-role) 
 +  * Manager-A will only have a description set (Leader) 
 +  * LAY-SP will have a description (Manager), attribute (attr1), criticality (3), guarantee by identity (with user-name "user-login"), and guarantee by role (with role-code "role_code) set. 
 +  * Roles CORE-CLOSE and AB-role will have a description ("desc"), and attribute (attr1) set.

 +<note important>If you are updating the roles, make sure to set the same form definition the role already have (if they have any). Also, each role can only have one definition, so if you by mistake set a different definition in the LRT configuration, you will likely get an error. Generally, DO NOT use this LRT to change the definition of a role. You can only change the definition if the role has no attributes set yet.</note> 
 + 
 +<note>This LRT can be used to update existing values but it **does not** remove old values. The only overwritten value during update is role criticality.</note>
