Data Import Tool
The Data Import Tool will allow a user to import and update data using a predefined csv file format downloadable from the import page. There is also an options to undo an import. Imports can be undone for a period of 24 hours after the import process is completed.
Under Tools -> Data Import, you will select which type of data you wish to import. Once that is selected, the import screen will open.
Within each import option, you will see a link to download a Sample Inventory CSV file. You will need to make sure your data is In THE EXACT Same Field layout as this sample.
Steps to Add/update:
- Choose File:
- Upload File: After you upload, you should see the data in the Data GRID (screen shot below)
- Make changes etc. until your file is clean (Green check Mark). You may have to repeat Steps 1 & 2 a few times to clean up the errors. FYI: You can make some changes right in the GRID
- Import: You will not be able to import until all errors are corrected.
If this is your first time importing, we recommend trying this with a small set of records so you can gain comfort with how to troubleshoot any issues.
