# Import / Export

It is useful to be able to change products in one pub and automatically update them in the other pubs. It will save a lot of time and be more reliable. Exporting allows you to export prices to a lot of outlets in one go. Importing will only bring prices in from one outlet. First, select the type of product item you want to work with and then click on either the import or export button.

Import

You will be shown a window where you can choose where the cost prices are going to be imported from. Select an outlet from the list and then click OK. You are now prompted to confirm whether you want to proceed with the operation. If you click on Yes, the cost prices for all products in this outlet will be updated to match those in the outlet you have imported from.

Export

You will be shown a window where you can choose where the cost prices are going to be exported to. You can choose to export to a single outlet, all outlets or all of the outlets setup in a group. The group options will not be available if the outlet is not part of a group. Choose the option you want and select the specific target outlet if appropriate. Click on OK. You are now prompted to confirm whether you want to proceed with the operation. If you click on Yes, the cost prices for all products in the other outlet(s) will be updated. A completion message will displayed showing which outlets have been updated.

Note
For both importing and exporting, products will be updated by product code - the description is irrelevant. i.e. If Famous Grouse has a different product code in different outlets, problems may arise. Be careful!
