If you want to transfer a large amount of price information between Virto Commerce and another system, you can use a specially-formatted spreadsheet to import or export that data. Virto Commerce uses CSV (semicolon-separated value) files to perform this kind of bulk task.
The business goal for the module is to provide to non-technical not high skilled business users (like "category manager") who works with prices on a daily basis and don't understand the database structure to work comfortably with prices export and import functionality using it for price management.
Note:
To automate the transfer of information from third-party systems like ERP, refer to the API, Integration Middleware approach, and Azure Logic Apps connectors.
- Export two price lists to make comparing.
- Change multiple prices in the price list of few hundreds of records in the price list.
- Make a bulk price update (+5% for everything) for a price list.
- Add prices for a batch of new products added to the catalog.
Abstractions and implementation including public API can be changed in next releases (breaking changes may be introduced).
