Tip
Livefield delimit the Sheet no. and description based on the file name and first space in the file name. We recommend to save file name as Sheet no + space + Sheet description to save time while uploading.
e.g.
File name: A-101 Plan at first floor
Sheet no: A-101
Sheet Description: Plan at first floor.
Here first space in file name is after A-101 so before first space, we assume it is Sheet no. and after first space, Sheet description is given.
