Data import configurator

Import of Excel and BMEcat files

Product data is often available in Excel or BMEcat format. For example, because suppliers provide corresponding files for merchandise, or because product data is processed internally in Excel. There are two ways to import data into the PIM system: Either the files are prepared for the standard import format of crossbase or a connection to the database fields is established via a graphical user interface.

BMEcat converter

To import BMEcat files, they are validated and converted into Excel format. The BMEcat contents can then be processed with the data import configurator.

Transformation rules

Contents of a column can be transformed according to rules. Text parts can be replaced, removed, added or numbers converted using formulas. This means that even large data quantities can be quickly and easily adapted for import into the PIM system.
