Can I Import My Existing Inventory into AccuArk?
Yes. AccuArk supports importing inventory items from CSV files, so you do not need to re-enter your products one by one.
What You Can Import
The inventory import allows you to bring in a wide range of item data, including:
- Item names and descriptions
- SKU numbers and barcodes
- Selling prices and cost prices
- Stock quantities (on-hand counts)
- Category assignments
- Vendor associations
- Reorder points and reorder quantities
- Tax-related settings
Each row in your CSV file represents one inventory item.
How It Works
The import follows a five-step wizard process:
- Select your file — Browse to your CSV file and choose the target location
- Map your columns — Match the columns in your file to AccuArk fields
- Preview and validate — Review the data and see any errors before committing
- Import — AccuArk processes the file and creates your inventory records
- Summary — Review how many items were imported, updated, or skipped
Before You Start
Make sure your categories are set up in AccuArk before importing inventory items. Each item references a category, and the import validates that the category name in your file matches an existing category in the system. If the category does not exist, the row will show an error during validation.
You can create categories manually in AccuArk, or import them first using the Categories import.
