Mass processing

Your business is booming and you’ve already built a solid product portfolio. But how do you best deal with item data in your day-to-day work? PlentyONE includes several functions for processing items. The table compares the possibilities and uses examples to illustrate them.

Function Explanation

Group function

Examples:

  • you want to choose the items that should be included in a special sale.

  • you want to choose the items whose prices should be increased.

Technical specifications:

  • edits several items or variations at once.

  • you directly choose the items or variations that should be edited.

Batch processing

Examples:

  • you want all of the items in a particular category to be included in a special sale.

  • you want to increase the price of all the items that are manufactured by a certain company.

Technical specifications:

  • edits several items or variations at once.

  • you use filters to limit which items or variations should be edited.

Import & Export

Use the import & export, e.g. if you want to modify several items and variations at once. Export a CSV file containing product data. Then revise the file and import it again.

Search & replace

Imagine you just found out that your manufacturer renamed a part. Now it’s your job to change the name in all of your item texts. Use the search & replace function to globally change a word or phrase in all of your item texts.

Copy

Imagine you want to add a new item to your product portfolio. It’s really similar to an existing product. In this case, copy the existing product. Then change the settings that differ for the new item.

1. Group function

Use the group function to edit several items or variations at once. You’ll directly choose the items or variations that should be edited. For example, you can use the group function to:

  • choose the items that should be included in a special sale.

  • choose the items whose prices should be increased.

1.1. Editing items

Characteristics
Setting Explanation

Create listing

Choose this option () to create listings on eBay for the selected items.

Additional settings: Did you save a listing template for the item? The listing template specifies, e.g. whether the listings are for eBay. If the item doesn’t have a listing template, then the system will try to create an eBay listing by default, since this is the most common situation.

Example: Imagine you want to create an eBay listing. In this case, you will need to save a listing template for the item. PlentyONE knows that it should create eBay listings because the eBay account is saved in the template.

Update timestamp for market exports

Sets the Last change timestamp to the current date and time.

Background: Sometimes it’s necessary to update the timestamp, e.g. if you want to sell the item on Amazon. This is because items are only exported to Amazon if they were edited within the last 24 hours.

Use this group function if you want to manually make the variation visible in the plentyShop despite the fact that it’s not in stock.

This setting remains valid until new stock is booked for the variation. Once net stock for the variation becomes positive, the availability and visibility settings if net stock is 0 or negative take effect again.

Prices
Setting Explanation

Price calculation

Select an existing price calculation. This will link the price calculation to the selected variations. The variations’ prices will be calculated accordingly.

Price change

Edits the prices of all the selected variations. How exactly the prices are edited depends on how you configured the settings.

  1. Select a source price and target price.

  2. Select an operator and enter an absolute value or a percentage.

Note: You can also apply the operators to one single price. Do so by selecting the same sales price as the source and target.

absolute

Select an operator and enter an absolute value.
= The value entered is saved as the new price.
+ The current price is increased by the amount entered.
- The current price is decreased by the amount entered.
/ The current price is divided by the value entered.
* The current price is multiplied by the value entered.

in percent

Select an operator and enter a percentage.
+ The current price is increased by the percentage entered.
- The current price is decreased by the percentage entered.

Note: If there is no monetary price saved for the variation as this target sales price, then the sales price will be linked and the new monetary price will be saved.

Note: If any of the selected variations currently inherit prices from the main variation, inheritance of all prices is deactivated and the prices are saved on the variation level.
Shipping
Setting Explanation

Extra shipping charge 1;
Extra shipping charge 2

Activate and enter a value. This value will be saved as the extra shipping charge for the selected variations.

Customs tariff number

Activate and enter a customs tariff number. In PlentyONE, it’s possible to save a different customs tariff number for each variation.

Example: In some countries, children’s clothing is taxed differently depending on the size. In this case, it makes sense to save the customs tariff number separately for each variation.

Inheritance: The customs tariff number is automatically passed down from the main variation to the sub-variations. This means:

  • you don’t need to enter customs tariff numbers for your sub-variations if you want them to have the same customs tariff number as the main variation.

  • you’ll need to enter a different customs tariff number for all of the sub-variations that should differ from the main variation.

Deactivates the inheritance function. The main variation’s data will be saved for the sub-variation.

Note: This group function controls the inheritance of all prices, categories, suppliers etc. saved for the main variation. It is not possible for individual prices, categories, suppliers, etc. to be inherited.

2. Batch processing

Use batch processing to edit several items or variations at once. You’ll set filters to limit which items or variations should be edited. For example, you can use batch processing to:

  • put all of the items in a particular category on sale.

  • increase the price of all the items that are manufactured by a certain company.

Batch processing crashes with large quantities

There may be a timeout if you try to edit too many items or variations at once. If you need to edit large quantities, then we recommend that you:

  • use the import tool instead.

  • divide the batch processing job in smaller parts. For example, you could work with flags and only edit a sub-set of your items or variations at once.
