When completed mobility activities records were exported and reimportedre-imported, they are checked automatically against all rules, including business rules that may have been introduced or updated after the mobility activity/participation was completed previously. In such cases, the reimported mobility activity re-imported record becomes a draft mobility if it no longer complies with such rules. 

In this example, the import was successful. Five completed and three draft mobility activities have been imported.
