Start from a layout that you want to import the records into.

You can only import data into one table at a time. You can't import into related tables. As @Malcolm says, you import into the table referenced by the layout that is displayed when importing. If you want to import into multiple tables, you will need to import multiple times using different layouts.

Hope this helps.
