Summary

This article explains how to export stock items from Platinum to eBay using shopify's 'CSV File Import'. Please Contact your Platinum dealer or our sales team on 0116 230 1500 or by using our website sales contact page if you wish to use this option.

Shopify Process

The export routine will create a file containing your products, along with a template containing specific details specified by Shopify. We have auto populated these fields with the title as specified by Shopify.

To add additional details per product you will need to amend the CSV file prior to uploading to Shopify.

Care must be taken when using an editor to avoid changing key information such as product codes.

The required details vary depending on the Shopify Template.

Please follow the links to view an example template.

Creating the Export Files

  • Once the option has been added to your system you will be assigned a menu option to use. This will produce the CSV file in the location specified on setup.

Uploading the Export Files to Shopify

  • Log in to your Shopify account.
  • Go to your stock list and click on the [Import] button.
  • From there you can drag and drop the CSV file in.
  • If this is the first import you will need to map the columns within the import file to the heading the information is to import to.
