Importing Costs Into the Product Catalog

Prev Next

You can update/enter Product Catalog cost and list data by importing a tab-delimited file that contains that information. Cost and list data must be imported separately.

To import costs into the Product Catalog:

  1. Enter the cost information you want to add to the Product Catalog into an Excel spreadsheet. (The format requires two columns: part number and cost.)
  2. Save the spreadsheet as a tab-delimited text file.
  3. In Quantify, click Product Catalog.
    The Product Catalog appears.
  4. Click the Import dropdown and select Overwrite Costs.

    The Overwrite Products Cost dialog appears. 
  5. Click the Import button ().

    The Overwrite Cost for Text File dialog appears.
     
  6. Locate and select the appropriate file and click Open.
    The Overwrite Products Cost dialog returns. 
  7. Click the appropriate Overwrite Column radio button: List or Cost. This determines whether Quantify updates the list or cost data.
  8. Click Import.

    Quantify adds the updated cost information to the Product Catalog for each part in the tab-delimited text file.
