On this page we explain how you upload and manage your product data with the Product Manager so that it becomes available to your buyers via the Trading Partner Network.

You can use your own product data file, as explained below, or go to the instructions on how to use the Onetrail template.



Step 1: Create product data file

All product data you want to make available to your customers must be presented in an Excel or CSV file. 

Product data file guidelines

  1. The maximum amount of products in the file may not exceed 20.000 items.

  2. We apply a maximum file size. Please make sure your file size does not exceed the 6 MB.

  3. We only support the file formats Excel (.xlsx) and CSV (.csv)

  4. When you are using a CSV file your file needs to have an exclusive separator. For example, you use a comma as a separator, then you can’t use comma’s in your product descriptions.

  5. Your file must contain at least the following mandatory fields and each column comes with specific restriction and requirements for the data being added:

Pre check for your product data file

If you are having doubts about the correctness of your product data file and the ability of your IT-system to deliver the right data, you can choose to do a pre check.

With this pre check our customer care department will check your file and deliver you a report with the outcome and advice on how to solve any emerged mismatches. Based on this report you will be able to assess whether you meet the criteria to setup this connection.

For this pre check advice, you will be charged € 280,00. Please contact customer care at support@onetrail.com for inquiries.

Step 7: Overview of all available products and customize products

In the 'Product table' you find an overview of all the products you have made available to your customers.

This display defaults to 10 records, you can adjust this setting at the top right. Use the arrows at the bottom to navigate through the overview.

You can also:
- Sort;

- And choose fields.

With the 'Download current overview' function you can download an up-to-date overview in Excel format of all product data that you have made available to your buyers via the Product Manager.


Adjustments
If you want to make a large number of adjustment, or add new items, you can do so with a new product file upload.

For small number adjustments or adding a few new items you can do that in-line. Show how....   


Remove products
For products that are no longer supplied, for example due to end of life (EOL), you remove the product line from the product file. The system automatically sets the missing product to delete. This product will then no longer be forwarded to your buyers.
