Title: SM-DE-S Import Item Links
Post by HB on 04/26/13 at 10:42:15

Hello,

We are in the process of importing a bunch of item links. We are using SM-DE-S: Import Item Links, however, I am unsure of how to complete the section below Comma Delimited of Fixed Length? [C, F] (guessing "of" should be "or")

The spaces can be filled in with 3-digit numbers, however I'm very unclear of what they represent.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm providing a link to an image of what I'm questioning: http://db.tt/SsauKr1a

Thank you!

if you select Comma delimited, then column 1 is the order in which that data appears in your import file, ie if Item number is the first filed in your file then put a 1 in the first column and so on and so on.. column 2 is not used in Comma Delimited type importing.

If you are using Fixed length then column 1 is the starting position of that field in your file, and column 2 is the number of characters that field takes up.

hope that helps
