Products ignored when importing product CSV file

Problem

When importing a product CSV file you receive an error message stating products have been ignored. 

Setup

• Vend for Mac or PC

Cause

There are two main causes of this issue:

1. The tax name in the tax column does not match the tax name set up in your Vend account.
2. The ID in the CSV file belongs to a deleted product

Solution

1. Ensure that the tax name listed in the CSV file exactly matches the tax name in Setup > Sales Taxes.
2. Delete the contents of the ID column, making sure to leave the column header

Additional Information

• A common mistake is a space after the tax name
• Standard products will be ignored if their handle is identical to another standard product already in Vend
• Composite products will also be ignored when importing a product CSV file as the product will be updated if changes were made to any product(s) that make up the composite
