Specifically, we need to ensure that the ID numbers for both the client sheet and SEOmonitor account for each client are there and accurate.

For these cases, it is important to understand the format and data of the reports. Please review the Report Call Script from the Client Solutions (CS) resources to aid your understanding about reporting calls: 5.0 Report DifferencesUnderstanding the difference between the 4.1 reports and the 5.0 reports is important for being able to communicate reporting data.
