Sales Order Import: make bulk orders painless

Bulk order imports save hours — if your file and field mapping are right.

Choose your method

Maropost supports simple (predefined) and complex (custom) formats via CSV/XML. Use simple for basic loads; use complex for integrations requiring custom mappings. Always validate with a small test file first.

 

Map fields deliberately

Prioritise customer, product lines (SKU/qty/price), shipping, tax, and payment terms. Optional fields like notes, PO numbers, or custom statuses can be powerful for B2B workflows. Keep a living data dictionary so your team knows what every column does.

 

Quality control

Run imports in off-peak hours and archive files with timestamps. After import, spot-check totals and tax, then trigger any downstream tasks (invoicing, fulfilment). Maintain a rollback plan.
