Getting the error "Invalid company reference key" when attempting to do a Project Task import using
ACTIVITIES>SCHEDULING>PROJECT TASKS>IMPORT
I found a very helpful community answer

We are using quite a few features of Netsuite Projects including, projects, Project management, advanced project profitability and several suite apps.
We are using Activities > Scheduling > Project Tasks > Import to import tasks. Each task could have multiple resources assigned.
Our issue: when we import the tasks with multiple resource assignees, it is creating new tasks for every employee assignment, which is not what we want. Has anyone been able to import the tasks and the assignees so that it is in a one to many arrangement?
Should we import the tasks first and then try to do the assignment in a second load?
The import allows only one file to be imported and not multiple like many of the other csv imports.

Unfortunately, it does not discuss our error.
Typically, when receiving a "reference key" error, the easiest solution is to use an Internal ID. But in this case there are no Internal ID fields that can be mapped to (at least none that I can see).
In addition, the word "company" in the error message is confusing. It leads me to think that it is referring to our overall NetSuite instance. How can I get a company reference key error when we are attempting to import a Parent Project Task?
Can anyone give me a hint on the "company reference key" error?
Thanks in advance
