Upload hierarchy using CSV
You can import packaging hierarchies, or linked products, via a CSV and export them to the needed channels using the Retail PX API. You must link each product to one lower-level product in a hierarchy by providing the GTIN and quantity of the respective lower-level product in its data within a CSV import.
For example, you can import and export linked products in a scenario similar to this:
- In the PALLET unit, you can provide the GTIN and Quantity of the relevant DISPLAY unit.
- In the DISPLAY unit, you can provide the GTINs and Quantities of three CASE units.
- In the CASE units, you can provide the GTIN and Quantity of the respective BASE unit.
When you import data with the GTINs and quantities of lower-level products, the Retail platform automatically connects all the linked products and displays the respective hierarchy tree on the product detail page.
Product status line
For every product, at the bottom of the product details page, you can see the workflow line and the status of the product.
