The warehouse team will process the uploaded file and update the Warehouse Management System as required.

Common Uses
The Uploads page is commonly used for:
Stock Imports
Upload files containing stock information for products being received into the warehouse.
New SKU Requests
Submit details of new products that have not yet been created within the Warehouse Management System.
This allows the warehouse team to create the new SKUs before stock arrives.
SKU Updates
Upload amended product information to update existing SKUs, such as changes to descriptions, dimensions, weights, or other product attributes.
Previous Uploads
The Previous Uploads section displays files that have already been submitted.
For each upload you can view:
- Date and time received
- User who uploaded the file
- Filename
- Number of rows contained within the file
This provides a record of files that have been submitted through the portal.
Note: Uploading a file does not automatically update the Warehouse Management System. Files are reviewed and processed by the warehouse in accordance with your agreed operating procedures.
