We are in the process of evaluating Magento CE and Cart2Quote (Extension for Magento) Not sure if this is a Magento issue or Cart2Quote

I have installed Magento CE (with test data) and are able to integrate Cart2Quote. We carry a lot of products so we need to do bulk import and export of the products.

To check import and export functionality I am referring to: http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/tutorial-using-magentos-import-export-profiles

I am able to export the product, but when I try to import the same products it gives me following error:

Invalid value for 'status' in rows: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 Invalid value for 'tax_class_id' in rows: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 Invalid value for 'visibility' in rows: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 Invalid value for 'gift_message_available' in rows: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 Invalid value for 'page_layout' in rows: 2, 7 Invalid value for 'country_of_manufacture' in rows: 2, 7

File is totally invalid. Please fix errors and re-upload file Checked rows: 24, checked entities: 24, invalid rows: 24, total errors: 100

Please note that

  1. For some of the test products, I have given (manually from the admin console);

Allow Quotation Requests: Yes
Quotation Conditions: Always show Add to Quote Button

  1. I have added new products (manually from the admin console) with:

Allow Quotation Requests: Yes
Quotation Conditions: Always show Add to Quote Button

In both the above cases Car2quote works fine, as the product shows up in the front end with "Add to Cart" button on them.

Can any one help me with the importing issue. Have attached screenshot of the importing error and below is the link for the csv file I am trying to import into the system.

I tried importing using Data-Flow profiles...it is able to import now....

Thanks

  • Are you saving this as a text csv or as an Excel csv? Make sure it is just a text file.

For bulk importing of products (or bulk updating) I use MAGMI.

After getting it setup, an easy way to get working quickly is to export Attribute Sets using Dataflow Profiles. This will give you a basic template of the information you will be required to use with MAGMI, although the file you've provided is a close match to the MAGMI .csv file format.

MAGMI can easily import thousands of products in a very short amount of time.
