Import Modes
Direct import vs staging import, when to use each, and their workflows.
Direct Import
Items are immediately added to your live inventory:
- Best for: Trusted data sources, verified imports, bulk inventory additions
- Process: CSV → Map columns → Preview → Import → Live inventory
- Speed: Fastest - no review step required
- Risk: Higher - errors immediately affect live inventory
- Use when: You've verified your CSV data and are confident in accuracy
Staging Import
Items are imported into staging for review before going live:
- Best for: New imports, untrusted sources, bulk updates needing verification
- Process: CSV → Map columns → Preview → Import → Staging → Review → Approve → Live inventory
- Speed: Slower - requires review step
- Risk: Lower - errors can be caught before going live
- Use when: You want to verify data before it affects live inventory
- Features: Bulk approve/reject, edit staging items, bulk repricing
