lib/collections/import-jobs

Defines the Payload CMS collection configuration for Import Jobs.

This collection is the heart of the data import pipeline. Each document represents a single, discrete import job for a specific dataset (or a sheet within a file). It tracks the entire lifecycle of the import process through a series of stages, from initial deduplication to final event creation.

Key responsibilities of this collection include:

Managing the current processing stage of the import.
Storing detailed results from each stage, such as duplicate analysis, schema detection, and validation.
Tracking progress, errors, and final results.
Orchestrating the pipeline by triggering the next job in the sequence via afterChange hooks.
Enforcing valid stage transitions to maintain pipeline integrity.
