Below is the basic Product Import Template which can be used to import data into Vision Warehousing.

There are other fields available, if you think there is something missing please speak to the Implementations team.

We generally derive charges for products from a logical entry after the import takes place, so we calculate the charges based on the charges for the customer and the logic to apply those to the products.


The attachment below contains multiple sheets

Import Template

This is where you place your data, we will then load this data into our import tables and then we begin writing scripts to fill the missing fields, and to also derive other fields that are needed for the product import.

Product Charging

We generally derive the product charging from your product data, we build a script to apply the charging per each product from the customers default charing structure, therefore it is essential that the charging structure can be linked to the product by means of one of the product fields.

e.g.   Product Type  WINE is always the charge groups "general"
