Hi People,

We are new at using this software and need to add stock to our site.
we need to be able add parts and update prices easily and on a regualar basis.

we can create a .csv file from our DMS system.

I have been looking into the external links option, but I am unsure if this will wipe all date every time we adjust a price or upload a new file.

can someone please please give me some advice before I loose all my hair!

Many thanks

Neil

I think that external linking will be too slow for you - also when you add new products you have to drag them into the appropriate section which would a bit of a pain if you have lots and lots.

I would suggest looking at the import formats - hierarchical and flat file.

Also we have a plugin that makes it easier to do bulk price updates, it's called the Profit, pricing and stock tool and you can find more details and a free trial here :
