Zencart 2.1
dbio-2.0.1

I just started using this today. I have two questions.

First is how do we add an item if its not in the system. For example I dont have a v_products_id until i add it to the website. Like it did on ep4

Also from testing when i export my products my special price goes under v_products_price_sorter. When i try and change the price nothing happens on the front end.
How could i add the special pricing into the original product upload
