Add Product SKUs to my Product Catalog

ShippingEasy's Product Catalog provides a centralized hub to store all your product information. This information is then used to update your orders automatically, matching the product SKU to override data synced from your store.

If you use our Inventory Management tool Lead Time, you can follow these same steps to add new products, update existing products, and update stock levels.

Note

This feature is available to existing Inventory Management subscribers. Learn more about using the ShippingEasy Product Catalog.

At this time, we are not currently developing new features or functionality for our Inventory solution. This means that at this time we cannot address the issues you have with the current system. However, we do expect that in 2022, we will be introducing a new and improved Inventory experience.

Product listings can be added one by one or all at once via CSV file (in bulk).

Add Individual Products

  1. Go to PRODUCTS and select CATALOG from the drop-down.

Add multiple Products via CSV file

Tip

When updating products via a CSV file, it is not necessary to pare down the data to only the new items.

A file with a complete listing of all your products will work just as well as one limited to only products with updates. ShippingEasy will review the file for (1) new items and (2) updated items. All others will be ignored. New items will be entered as new product listings. Updated items will be edited to reflect new weights.

For this process you will need to be on the PRODUCTS page and have your prepared CSV file on hand

  1. Click the grey Add Products button and select Upload from .CSV.

  2. Click Browse from the CSV file menu,. After selecting your file, click Upload file.

    Note

    The ShippingEasy Account Owner will receive an e-mail once the upload is complete. This gives you the opportunity to continue shipping while the upload processes.

  3. Map the "Source Column" to the "ShippingEasy Column" on the "Upload CSV: Product Import" page. Then click Continue.

    Note

    In the event you need to download the CSV file you uploaded, to confirm or change something, simply click the file name in blue.

  5. Edit any fields that require an additional update by clicking the field. An edit dialog will appear. Once all the data looks in order, click the Complete Upload button.

Your new products are now cataloged!

Add multiple Products from your stores

If you have a supported store connected, you can select to import multiple products to update your catalog quickly with new SKUs, weights, and images. Importing products from your stores will also import any SKU variations as well as link SKUs between the product catalog and your store. For accounts with Inventory Management connected ShippingEasy will also set the initial stock level for newly added SKUs to match your store.
