An alternate solution would be to modify your props.conf & transforms.conf to explicitly specify the headers

props.conf

[source::/etl/issrdr/scripts/tst/splunk/input/updates.csv]
REPORT-fields = updateFields

transforms.conf

[updateFields]
FIELDS="TIME_STAMP","TRANSACTION_ID","ENTITY_NAME","ERROR_MESSAGE"
DELIMS=","

You shouldn't have had to re-start Splunk as those are search time field extractions. You might try a "| evaluate reload=T" but I don't think that is the challenge.

So you're seeing the results but when you choose "Pick Fields" those fields are not listed as options?
