Import Inventory

Imported Inventory will appear alongside other Inventory for review and management.

  • For the most comprehensive import, we recommend downloading the latest export file with up-to-date features and fields.

  • The import process is intended for creating new records. Enter as many details as possible when importing, as attempting to update existing records will result in an error.

  • All date values must follow the MM/DD/YYYY format. If the spreadsheet contains dates, please double-check they are formatted accordingly before proceeding with the import process.

  • Imports are limited to 5000 lines. Please break down larger imports into files with no more than 5000 lines.
