Issue in Importing Microsoft project plans to RTC

Hi
I am facing issue while importing Microsoft project plans to RTC. I could import all the plans but do not get the Start and Finish date imported.

I am not sure here, but I think to import the start and finish date you need the right to modify the timeline. I think I remember I saw a message saying so when I tried. There are some articles in the library you could check.
I do not get any error message. It imports all the tasks to the plan but without start and finish dates. I refered to the article https://jazz.net/library/article/590/ and it do not refers to the date.
There is a newer article here: https://jazz.net/library/article/663
I just imported a test project plan and the dates imported are the plan start and end date, as in the article. The individual tasks start end end dates are calculated also using the resource availability after the import when doing the proposed and planned plan snapshots.
I could import MPP to RTC. Sorry for the delay in posting the solution. The issue was with the field mapping. The field mapping should be as mentioned below.
Insert a new column in .mpp file of Column Type 'Deadline ' ==> Copy the entire column values of Finish date to this newly inserted column ==> This column value will ultimately be populated in the Due Date field in RTC.
Insert a new column in .mpp file of Column Type 'Constraint Date ' ==> Copy the entire column values of Start date to this newly inserted column ==> This column value will ultimately be populated in the Constraint Date field in RTC.
Insert a new column in .mpp file of Column Type '
Insert a new column in .mpp file of Column Type '
