"Can not update built-in fields values."

I am leaving Notion for QB. I created an exact copy of my Notion database (it was pretty simple) in QB and exported the Notion data into CSV. I started the import and in  the preview screen it looked perfect. But every time I hit "import" I get "Can not update built-in fields values." 

I can't find any simple solutions to this, just very complex instructions about API, which is a little beyond my skills! Does anyone know of a simple workaround? Thank you!

Thank you for replying so quickly. Much appreciated. I only plan to use QB to keep track of the thousands of articles I used for my newsletter business. The "Projects" section is all I use--or plan to use. Above are the 12 fields I use, showing the status of each article, its author, its editor, and the newsletter it is slated for. I am getting a sense that one or more of those is somehow interfering with pre-set QB fields. Is there a workaround? Here. Again, thank you for your assistance.
