What will be imported is the white (2,3 & 5,6,7) rows. I want a parent (ex: orange rows 1&4) to be auto-created for any unique number in the "Reference" field. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

    As far as I know, there is no way to automatically import and create parent/child relationships unless you use the API or Bridge.

    If you’re using the API directly or using Bridge you can specify hierarchy when you add or update rows..
