Zen Cart does not have a built-in facility for importing/exporting XML files.

The Easy Populate addon can be used for tab-delimited files provided you manipulate the files into a proper format prior to importing.

I have a client who wants to do this exact thing. Has anyone found a solution, is there a way to do this.

I would like to install tech data flat file into zen-cart database. can you give some sort of guild line in regards to what is important when binding the data.

To my understanding because there isn't a solution to do live data feed. We would download our data feed in a Flat File format. Make the correct conversion so that it opens up in excel and re-upload it.

what would be a good working example or follow through that we can use.
