The exported Excel file can be used for the Import feature as it has the same structure that the import requires.

The import feature is located in the main left menu, under Products and Prices list, accessible by clicking on the edit sign.

Excel File With Explanations For Fields

Excel File Details

For each Product detail and Price detail, a column is defined, and the file to be imported must maintain the same structure as in the attached sample.

You may import multiple products at once, each with multiple prices.

For importing a product with more than one price:

  • On the 1st row (which is actually the 2nd row in the Excel file, because the 1st row is the header), you must fill in the product details and the details for the 1st price of the product.
  • On the following rows, to enter 10 prices for the same product, you must copy and paste the same information for all 13 Product columns in 10 lines and then fill out the Price-related columns for each line separately.

When you have completed the details for the 1st product with all its prices, as explained above, you may add other products with related prices, in the same Excel file.

Important Mention!

For the columns of the Excel file that require completion with TRUE or FALSE values, the column must be formatted as Boolean Value.

First, apply the correct format to the column cells, and after that, type in TRUE or FALSE.

All columns requiring TRUE or FALSE must be completed with one of these two values, without exception.

Each product must have at least 1 price for which Season Begin/Season End, Book Begin/Book End dates must be filled in, otherwise, the import will result in an error.

Columns of the Excel File Explained

Product ID

For new products, leave this column empty or fill it with 0 (zero) as the value.

For updating an existing product, include the product’s ID from Victoury in this field.

If an ID is entered and not found in Victoury, this row will be ignored.

Product Code

If the Product ID column is already filled in, then the product code of the entry found will not be updated; only the rest of the data will be.

If no ID is entered, a new product is created with this Product Code.

If no ID is entered, and the Product Code already exists in Victoury, an error will be returned.

Product-related data update does not occur based on product code identification.

NOTE: Victoury does not allow duplicate Product Codes, thus your codes must be unique.

Supplier Name
