      Article summary

      The Location Importer is for importing location files. This is the most efficient way to add locations in bulk into the system. The file that you import has to be an excel file in .CSV format (comma delimited). If you click the Template button in the top right, it will download a template excel file which will show you all of the headers you will need to put on the file for each column of information.

      If you click the Logs button in the top right, it will show you the last 10 imports that were performed. You can also pull the file that was imported for each of them too by clicking the File link on the right side (See Below).

      To start a location import, go to Imports tab, then Locations. Click the Choose File button and select the excel file you are importing.

      Once you choose the file to import, notice that the Save button is clickable now. Click the Save button and when it's done it will pop up a screen letting you know it's finished.


      Once the import is complete, you will see the section down below called Previous Import Results. It will show you how many locations were imported along with other detail I will note down below.

        1. Status: Displays as either Completed or Failed. If the status is Failed, the file likely contains an issue—such as an unsupported or foreign character—that prevented successful processing.

        2. New: The number of new locations successfully imported.

        3. Updated: The number of existing locations that were found and updated with new information from the file.

        4. Rejected: The number of existing locations that were found and updated with new information from the file.

        5. Unchanged: The number of records that matched existing system data and therefore required no changes

        6. Missing Lookups: This is the number of missing lookups. Lookups include fields such as Location, Type, Inventory ID, etc

        7. Total: The total number of location records contained in the file.

      The import is now complete, and you can continue with any additional file imports.
