CSV Product Uploads - Required Fields | Overview

In order to use specific CSV fields, you must have the Inventory add-on. Existing Inventory Management subscribers will still have the ability to use the features specific to Inventory Management, however, we are no longer supporting new subscribers.

ShippingEasy supports updating your Products catalog via CSV file. This guide outlines which fields can be updated with a CSV file upload. For more help getting started:

Fields marked in red are required.

When specifying multiple Alias SKUs, use the following format:

We can replace, not remove an Alias SKU. If you upload another alias for the same product, we will update it. If the field is blank, we take no action on that item.
IMPORTANT: include all Alias SKUs listed for your products as these values are set per upload.

Hi DJ - good news! You can now update the active/inactive status of your product SKUs via CSV file. Designate a column to this field, then fill the field with "active" if you would like ShippingEasy to reference that product's data. Likewise, fill the field with "inactive" if you wish for ShippingEasy to ignore that product's data.
