Import / Export: article prices

Please mind that you can only update prices to existing items with this import. It is not possible to create new items by using this import profile type.

General information

Before an import to the live-system is done, you should create a database backup. In any case the import should be tested in a test- or staging-system.

Basic item prices

When importing item prices you have to mind that this profile is only for ex- and import of item prices. Every included non-price-field works only for better identification ans will not get imported.

Via import you can't delete graduated prices from an article or deleting just single steps.

Also the prices have to be entered depending on the customer-group. There has to be a new line for every price and customer-group.

Whether the prices are gross or net depends on the customer-group configuration, defined at configuration > basic configuration > customer-group.

You should always include every price(price, pseudoprice, baseprice), otherwise the missing prices are set empty.
