 # Csv Parser
+
+A CSV Parser is responsible to read your CSV-files correctly. You will need a, when you create a Thing. So this is the first to start with.
+
+In the following we will have a look at the fields which need to be filled out, when creating a parser:
+
+* **Project:** The parser will only be available for users within this project
+* **Timestamp format**: The expected format follows https://strftime.org/ 
+  * Example 1: If your timestamp looks like this `6/13/2024 3:45:00 PM`
+
+                            The Timestamp format is :          `%m/%d/%Y %I:%M:%S %p`
+* **Column delimiter:** e.g. typical csv delimiter: , ; \\t
+* **Footlines:** If the last line of your file is an empty line then ???
+* **Decimal sign:** standard is the "Point"
+  * So far this can only be changed by admins \* However if requested more often this might change in future
+  * It might happen sometimes by chance that you have a line which states
+    * "Pandas read csv: {"decimal":","}
+    * In this case you have the Komma as decimal sign. Please create a new parser to have the standard "Point" as decimal sign

 # Things
-In this area you can manage your _Things_. Existing _Things_ are displayed here and can be searched and edited. New _Things_ can be created.
-A _Thing_ describes a data stream that comes from a defined source (e.g. a file, a file server or a specific server with a programming interface). Various metadata can be attached to this data stream and supplemented with specific attributes, e.g. for the data format.

 1. Filter by ingest type
 2. Filter by project
 
 Please note that you will only see _Things_ that belong to projects in which you are registered. The entire project management is administered via Helmholtz-VO. For more information, see [here](https://codebase.helmholtz.cloud/hub-terra/sms/service-desk/-/wikis/User_management)
