Import Selection csv in the Showroom

About this article:

This feature allows you to upload a csv file to the current selection in the Showroom and perform a bulk import, instead of manually adding products to the selection. Through the import you can decide to either override the present quantities or add them on top. If your buying process involves using spreadsheets to place orders, this feature will make it smoother and faster.

How to access the import selection feature

1. In the Showroom, click on the side menu and ‘Selections’

2. Choose a selection

3. In the bottom menu, click on the ‘Import selection .csv’ as seen below:

4. The following pop-up appears:

   

5. Prepare the import file following the instructions in the pop-up. There are two ways to structure the import file:

   • SKU; Variant SKU; Size; Quantity; Delwin *

   

   • UPC or EAN; Quantity; Delwin *

   

   • Delwin stands for Delivery window. Please insert the name of the Delivery window.

   If instead of creating the file from scratch, you would like to have some examples, please add some products and quantities to your basket, go to ‘Checkout’, click ‘Download’ and select ‘Product information’. This file includes the SKU, Variant SKU, EAN, UPC and Quantity columns, so you could use this as a template. Please remember to delete unnecessary columns, and keep the right column order.

6. Once the file is ready, save it as csv

7. Upload it by clicking ‘Choose file’ or dragging it to the respective part of the pop-up

8. Select how the import should work between the two options below. Note that this setting is only relevant if you already have some products in your selection and wish to modify/increase their quantity.

   • Increase the quantity of these items - If some quantities have already been added to the selection, this setting adds the import file quantities on top. For example, if 2 pcs have been added to the selection and the import file has 3 pcs, the end result is 5 pcs
   • Override quantities - If some quantities have already been added to the selection, this setting replaces them with the import file quantities. For example, if 2 pcs have been added to the selection and the import file has 3 pcs, the end result is 3 pcs

9. Click ‘Import’ to finalize the process. The following pop-up appears upon successful completion:

   

   If the file is wrong (i.e. fields missing, incorrect data) or the import is not successful, an error message appears to inform you about what went wrong.

   Note that the same feature is available in the Centra backend. Read more about this here.
