Interfaces - Import Export - Price Lists

FILE TAB

The Export and Upload functionality is found in the FILE tab of the form, this is designed to allow you to easily update prices on products, product price lists, and customer price lists.

This is ONLY designed to allow you to amend existing prices

What is the process ?

  1. Export the Price list you wish to modify

You can export

  • Product Prices

  • Product Price Lists

  • Customer Price Lists

Specify the directory where you want the files to be downloaded to.
The system will then export a file which can be edited in excel or a similar application.

  1. Open the price list in excel and update the prices

You should only update the sales prices on the files and reupload, make sure you do not alter the other information on the line especially the first field which is used to load the data back into the system.

Use Excel

  1. Save the price list in the upload location

 

  1. Upload and validate the price list

When you have finished editing the files save them and go back to the system but this time use the UPLOAD button

 

When you upload the data you will be asked to provide a directory for the location of the file, this will then load the data and you MUST validate whichever price lists you loaded.

 

If item 4 is succesful then the prices will immediately be updated.

Validation Issues

Anything which has failed validation will be shown in the VIEW/EDIT rejections page and from here you can double-click on the item, correct the issue and then resubmit it.

 

 

Interfaces - API Incoming Monitor

API TAB

 

You can monitor incoming and update for incoming items using the API, this include items coming from

  • Your website

  • Vision Insight

  • Vision Horizon

 

Customer

Incoming new customer or updates to customers will flow through this monitor, any which need to be manually added will be shown on the form, where you can update the fields and then push them into the main Commerce system.

 

Orders

Incoming new orders are processed through the orders tab on the menu. If you have manual processing or there is an issue with the order it will be in this screen waiting for you to push it onto the main system.

 

Audit Log

if you wish to look at the details of what has been happening then you should view the audit log which provides a complete breakdown of all the transactions being processed

 

 

What do you have to do

If you want to complete the information you can simply enter the missing information or double-click the entry will provide you with a form for key information which is missing, if there are further details which you have not noticed are missing then these need to be filled in.
