Import/Export References Tool


📍 Go to Modules > Amazon > Tools


If your products have missing references or EAN/UPC codes, this tool allows you to update your product listings efficiently in 3 steps:


  1. 📤 Export the CSV file
  2. âœī¸ Edit the file using Excel or OpenOffice
  3. đŸ“Ĩ Import the modified file


âš ī¸ Important:

- You are fully responsible for your data. Always backup your database before importing any file.
- This is an internal module file: it does not send any data to Amazon.
- Use this tool before publishing products on Amazon, otherwise, you risk creating duplicate SKUs.
- This tool is intended for advanced users only.

Editing example


Editable columns:

  • Product Name


â„šī¸ The Product ID appears as 123_0 for simple products or 123_678 for combinations.
