Hello, I am trying to import over 2000 items from a distributor. I have formatted the TSV file correctly, however it is only adding about 93 items. Even by splitting the file, it seems only certain items can be added. Are there limitations with Easy Populate Advance2.76d-mod3a Zen-Cart 1.3.x such as unusable characters, description lengths, etc? Thank you. Please ask if you need additional information.
Typo?? Should be csv file..I have formatted the TSV file correctly,
When using Easy Populate, every product must have unique
product model number, file should be tab delimited, and
EOREOR must be in last column for every entry.
Easy Populate also works more efficiently if around only 500 products
per file are uploaded

Thank you for your reply. Not to add confusion, but csv has become an ambiguous term where it originally was for comma separated values and tsv was used for tab separated values. Also, they are unique model numbers and EOREOR is at the end of every column. All columns line up correctly, and I tried easy populate with file split configured at 300 products. It seems to pick the exact same 93 products every time.
SilverFoxUnlimited - This is the support thread for EP 1.2.5.4 etc versions of EP if you purchased the Advanced version you should use the forum for that link below...
Easypopulate Advanced Forum
Thank you, I will check out that forum. However I did not purchase this version, I downloaded it from http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=460 on this site. Is the paid version incorrectly posted in the free download section?
2.76d-mod3a Zen-Cart 1.3.x - This is a version released this year, I have no knowledge if this version has any bugs, maybe someone else on this thread may know any known issues outstanding. I am sure others will have tested it out, and will advise. For a known working version is 1.2.5.4 without bugsEP via Modhole

I have additional information which might help for those interested. A portion of my file is available at http://www.silverfoxunlimited.com/easy_populate_tsv.txt The first item model 5001 (which appears far down the file with several similar items before it which do not add) adds correctly where the next one does not. There are no unique characters in the ones that do not get added vs the ones that do and the field lengths all vary which show this is not the limit. When running easy populate, all items that do not add say "!New Product!" where products that do get added say "!Updated!" despite the product was not previously part of the inventory nor did it appear previously on the file. The model numbers are unique. I thank everyone who has taken the time to help or offers any additional help.
