Mapping your item data to fields in Checkfront
Back to topOn the next screen, you see an empty table with the Checkfront data fields as the column headers (A). In the sidebar on the left, you see a list of the same fields, each with a dropdown box next to it (B).
These dropdown boxes contain a list of the field names you used to create the column headers in your spreadsheet.
It's now just a simple case of going down the list of fields and selecting the matching one from your spreadsheet (C).

When you have done this, click on the blue Import button at the top of the page.

You should see a pop-up asking you to confirm the import.

At this point, you can hurry over to view your imports at Inventory > Items, but before you do, let's have a quick look at some of the other options available to you from the import screen.
