Companies Import

Companies Import

At Kornit X we offer this quick solution to create multiple companies at once.

How Do I Use This Imports?

To be able to access this import, simply head to the "Companies" section which is found in the top corner cog wheel of the system. This has been shown below.

To import or export the product data simply use the the "Import" and "Export" options which we have highlighted below for you. 

Please note that an example of this import can be found attached at the bottom of this article. 

What Can I Do With The Export?

With the companies export you can access your company data in one quick CSV and using this you can overwrite and update certain elements such as the company name, default email, admin company ID, setting the retailer or fulfiller IDs (used when creating Dropship companies), deactivating/activating companies and the explainer name. 
To import an update you must include the "company_id", "company_ref_id" and "external_ref" which will be included when you run the export, you must not change these fields as the import will fail. 
If you plan to change the type of the company we recommend not using this as there are certain fields, it would be easier to make a new company and deactivate the one you wanted to change.
