Import Data (delete product import) - ekmPowershop

The Import/Export system is an advanced ekmPowershop feature. It allows you to easily Export large amounts of data out of your shop such as products and orders. The Import allows you to edit all aspects of your products and categories by uploading a formatted Import file.

To access the Import/Export system please log into your ekmPowershop account and navigate to features section. Look down the list until you see the import / export feature. If you do not see the option, then you may need to install that feature. Click here to see how.

The import file can be used to add products / edit products or delete products from your online shop.

I’m going to show you how to edit a file to delete products from your online shop.

The import file needs to have the following attributes to be successfully imported into your online store:

Action	CategoryPath
ID	Name
Price

On this guide we have the following attributes:

Action	CategoryPath
ID	Name

The most import attribute to change and it will be the only attributes you do change to delete products from your online shop is the Action attribute.

Action must be set as: Delete Product

To remove products from your online shop simply set the action as Delete product, you wont need to alter any other cell apart from changing the action and then importing the file back into your online shop.

Tip: When you import a file ekmPowershop will automatically create a restore point before the file is imported so if anything goes wrong within the hour you can resore your shop to before the file was imported.
