You can either:

(a) use the "Edit" link for each slot in turn (after creating it using  
the csv file upload) and then set the sections to which the slot is  
restricted, via the appropriate screen in the slot "helper", or,

(b) if running LON-CAPA 2.11.1 ...

before uploading the csv file, update the version of slotrequest.pm  
from 1.122 to 1.124 (and reload Apache); see instructions (and caveat)  
for bug 6796, in LON-CAPA's bug tracking system:
