How to Zencart CSV cobverting into xt:commerce CSV?

Hello,

I got a few Customers who sell my products and use xt:commerce and i'd like to give them my CSV file but it doesn't work if they upload it into their shop which is xt:commerce.

Is there any way to convert it to save them alot of manual item-by-item work? :)

Thanks in advance

Re: How to Zencart CSV cobverting into xt:commerce CSV?

Why would you think that people here would know about the format needed to import into a different (commercial) cart?

This is nothing to do with Zen Cart. You'd need to ask xt:commerce about their data format.

Re: How to Zencart CSV cobverting into xt:commerce CSV?

In the XT:COmmerce forum they said to ask here hence i want to convert zen cart csv to xt:commerce csv and not xt:commerce to zencart.

Anyway, seems like its impossible to do so if both sides send meto eachother.

I believe you'd need to study the differences and have someone write you an excel macro to automatically make all the changes you need.

Re: How to Zencart CSV cobverting into xt:commerce CSV?

This is fairly easy for somebody with a sound understanding of manipulating data.

However, your first posts suggests that you have already extracted your data from Zen Cart as a CSV but are having problems getting it imported into xt:commerce.

This would be either because the data doesn't fit xt:commerce's data structure, or isn't suited to its import facility. Both of which can only really be explained by people who know xt:commerce.

Indeed, in general meeting the requirements of the system into which you are importing is the more difficult part of a data transfer.
