Importing Inventory into CrystalCommerce

  1. Preparing the CSV file:
    • Open the exported CSV file in a spreadsheet editor.
    • Ensure the following required columns are populated:
      • Product Name
      • Category (Set Name)
      • Condition (e.g., Near Mint)
      • Language (e.g., English)
      • Sell Price
      • Qty or Add Qty
    • Important: Use Add Qty if adding new stock to existing inventory without overwriting current stock counts. Use Qty to set fixed totals.
  2. Navigating to Mass Create in CrystalCommerce:
    • In the CrystalCommerce Admin panel, go to Inventory > Mass Create.
  3. Configuring the Import Settings:
    • Check the option: "This import contains multiple categories" (since Sifter batches often cross sets).
    • Under File Import, upload the formatted CSV file.
    • Select the appropriate action mode:
      • Only Update Products: Updates existing catalog entries in CrystalCommerce.
      • Create / Update Products: Creates missing variants if necessary.
  4. Processing & Verification:
    • Click Import.
    • Monitor progress in Notifications > File Reports.
    • Confirm that products were updated correctly and quantities were added to the store catalog.

Importing Inventory into BinderPOS

  1. Preparing the CSV file:
    • Open the exported CSV file in a spreadsheet editor.
    • Ensure the following required columns are populated:
      • Product Name (rename from Card Name)
      • Set Name
      • Product Line (e.g., Magic, Pokemon, etc.; must be added as a new column)
      • Add to Quantity (rename from Qty)
