Importing Commodity Group Lists via CSV

Korona allows you to import commodity groups into the back office using the commodity group template.

Importing  Commodity Group lists via CSV into Korona

To do this, you will need to go to the Data Exchange. Navigate there by Settings >> Data Exchange

Once there click on the Import button on the CSV Widget. You will be presented with a drop down menu with a list available templates. Select the Commodity Group option from that list.

A pop up box will appear. You will have the options to upload the CSV File, chose the encoding and select whether or not the first line has names instead of data. This will force Korona to ignore the first row of data.

A template is available for you to download to ensure that you have the necessary data. To access the template click CSV Template. A popup will appear with the template lay out. Click on download to download the template.

The CSV Template displays what column each piece of content should be in when importing your commodity group lists. In this case, the csv should have three (3) columns.

  1. Number – Number assigned to that commodity group.
  2. Key – The bar-code used for that commodity group.
  3. Name – Name of that commodity group.

The template will also display what format the data for that column should be in. It also shows whether or not it is required by Korona. Finally a description of what that column should have is displayed.

When you have set all this up in your CSV file, hit the send button. If you get any errors, a pop up will display with any issues the importer has encountered. If the import was successful, you will get a pop up that says import successful.

Korona offers multiple templates to for users to import their data into the back office. To view the various formats you will need to go to the Import CSV manual page.
