You can find a specific product by typing in the Find text area and clicking
on the Find button. This will look in all fields for the products. You
can also filter products on all of the main product details. This can be useful
if your products are all listed by Suppler, Bin.Location or another

1 New button. You are then shown the Product
Details dialog.
2 Copy button. This copies the selected product and you shown the Product
Details dialog.
3 Automatically create products from imported orders. This is defined
when you import products.

only the few required fields (e.g. to update the EANs or ASINS in all of your
products).
5 Use the Products->Import->From Selected Orders menu option.
If you already have products in your system you can create the products from
the selected orders.
You can use the Export button to take the products out of One Stop Order Processing into a CSV file. You can then manipulate your products in Excel before importing back in again (or importing to a 3rd party system).
You can also use this facility to import product details from other systems.
The format of the CSV file is:
Import file format
The import
file is a standard CSV (Comma Separated Value) file. The first line contains
the field names separated by a comma (,). Each subsequent line contains values
for those fields, each value being separated by a comma (,). Microsoft Excel
can export information as a CSV file. You can create a template (example CSV
file) by using the Export button and exporting an existing product.
The product import
file can contain any of the fields described below, in any order. If you do
not know any of the information for a field don't include the field in the file
to import. This is described below.
You can use this
approach to import stock levels based upon the item's SKU, and only include
2 fields in your product import file, SKU and CurrentStock).
