      4. Delete Item (Allows you to enter a SKU to delete. Don’t use this feature if an item is discontinued but has been ordered in the past and you want it’s information to continue to appear in “Archived Orders” –See under “Order Manager”).

      8. Import from file (This is how your product information gets to the web site database. You must upload either a CSV or Tab-delimited file, not Excel format. When you upload a spreadsheet, records for new items will be created, discontinued items will be de-activated, and new Categories will be created. “Update Database” should be left at “Yes”.

        NOTE: Do not check “Clear All” unless a serious mistake has been made and you MUST clear out your entire item database. This will replace all items and categories with new system ID’s. It is only for extreme situations and is not advisable if you have had orders, since checking “Clear All” will change the system Ids for all items and past orders will not display correctly. This option will ask you to enter your username as a precaution).
