If you want to create several articles in your production, you can do this CSV
import instead of creating each product manually, which is time-consuming.

First you should get all necessary article master data from your supplier or
manufacturer to maintain all data properly. Most suppliers have neatly maintained
lists of their assortment. From it almost all can information necessary for us
to be copied.

The most important thing is the clean data maintenance – EAN codes are extremely
important for the Scan at “goods in” and the exact product assignment. But also
article weights play a role at the shipping station.

You can either download the sample import file from the backend or create your
own with the following columns:
