What is the title of the spreadsheet that we will provide for customers? Is it "import_hra.csv"?  It is a generic interface that will import any csv file as long as it is in the correct format.  I would suppose that we will basically provide a generic file so I suppose import_hra.csv is as good as anything else.  It might not be a bad idea to store a small sample file in this document.
