 +====Mini-FAQ====
 +  * **I tried to upload some new contacts, but they are being held due to 'Invalid Partner Location'?** The Partner Contact Bulk Import assumes that there is an already set up partner and location. Should a match not be made, the application 'holds' the uploaded data so you can associate it to an account at a later time.
