DMA: Create Products Using a CSV File
Updated over a week ago

If you don't use a POS and would like to import your products with a CSV file, follow the steps in this article.

You may not have this option. If that is the case and you would like to use this functionality, contact your Deliverect account manager or our support team by selecting the chat icon at the bottom right of this page.

Getting started


Step 2. Open the downloaded file and start adding your products. While you can use the examples from the file as a guide, don't forget to remove them afterward. Also, try to fill out as many fields as possible, as this will save you from having to add anything manually afterward.

Do not delete the first two rows or change the order of the columns.

Check each section below on how to add different product types to your CSV file.

Products

Fields

  • Name: The name to display in menus

  • Producttype: "PRODUCT" (all uppercase)

  • PLU: The unique ID for the product. If left empty, one will be generated automatically at import

  • Price: In the format "00.00" (always use a period, never a comma)

  • DeliveryTax: Set the correct delivery tax

  • Imageurl: Provide the URL (address) of an image for your product

  • Description (not required): Describe the product

  • Max: "100" (always)

  • Min: "0" (always)

  • Multiple(bundles): Leave empty

Modifier groups

Fields

  • Name: The name to display in menus

  • Producttype: "MODIFIER_GROUP" (all uppercase)

  • PLU: The unique ID for the modifier group. If left empty, one will be generated automatically at import

  • Price: "0" (always)

  • DeliveryTax: "0" (always)

  • Imageurl: Leave empty

  • Description (not required): Describe the modifier group

  • Max: How many modifiers a customer can add. Some examples:

    • A modifier group called "Extra sauce" contains five sauces that can be ordered, so the maximum is set to 5

    • A modifier group called "Choose your sauce" contains five sauces, but you want the customer to only choose one, so you set the maximum to 1

    • If a modifier group contains upsells, you can set the maximum number to be the total count of modifiers in the group

  • Min: This is the minimum amount of modifiers you can choose for this group. If you want the customer to order at least one modifier, you set it to 1. However, if the group contains upsells, you can set it to 0, because you do not want to force the customer into adding something optional to their order

  • Multiple(bundles): Enter the maximum amount of a modifier the customer can order
