Perform manual import
To perform the manual import of product dimensions to Lost & Found, follow these steps:
Step 1: Download the import template by selecting the “Download template” button with the down-arrow icon at the top left.
Step 2: Open the downloaded import template using a spreadsheet program. Review the columns and headers, which represent the data fields for the product dimensions on each of the template tabs:
- “Data definitions” includes the instructions for filling out the columns of the “Template” tab;
- “Template” is the main tab to be filled out with the data you want to import;
- “Example” provides examples of values for each column;
- “Valid values” provides the values offered in the dropdown lists of the “Template” tab columns.
Step 3: Fill out the “Template” tab with the data you want to import to Lost & Found. Ensure that you follow the required format and guidelines specified on the “Data definitions” tab.
Step 4: After you have filled out the import template with the necessary data, save the file in the required file format: Tab-delimited text (TSV) or Semicolon-delimited value (CSV).
Step 5: Return to the "Dimensions import" page and select the “Upload file” button with the up-arrow icon at the top left. Select the previously saved import file by clicking the “Choose file” button. After attaching the file, click “Upload”.
Note: If the import file is of the wrong file format or has the required fields missing, the relevant warning message appears. Review the message and make the necessary corrections to your import file. Repeat the upload process for the corrected import file.
Step 6: Once the import is launched, a new entry will appear in the page table labeled as "Manual import".

Step 7: If there are any errors in the import operation, the system will indicate it with an error icon at the beginning of the corresponding table line. Click the “Show errors” button with the error icon to open the “Dimensions import errors” modal form with the detailed error information. Review the error messages to determine what product dimensions have not been imported.
By following these steps, you can import product dimensions to Lost & Found using the provided import template. Successfully imported data will be available on the “Dimensions” page.
