Importing Linked Items
During the setup process of the first location on the account, all items are imported into CStoreOffice® together with all linked items for the following cash registers:
- Verifone Sapphire
- Verifone Commander
- Bulloch BT9000, Esso
- Gilbarco Passport
For all next locations on the account, linked items are imported from the cash register only for those items that did not have linked items before. All linked items that were imported during first location setup process are not overwritten by new values, if any.
If you need to import only linked items, use the information described in this section as a reference.
The procedure for importing items from the file is described in the Importing Items to a Station (Location) section.
A file for linked items has the same format as the one used for regular items import. The file of such type allows to:
- Import links only
- Import both links and items with all parameters
The file structure used for the regular items import is described in the Preparing a File for Data Import section.
If items already exist on the account and it is needed to import only links between them, one can use only next fields for the file:
Field Name | Mandatory (Yes/No) | Description |
