Master import
Use this for the main product catalogue source that creates or refreshes the core product records.
PIM
PIM imports and field mapping
How to add PIM import sources, choose a master source, run imports, and map columns from your source data to Pricemaster fields.
Import Source Types
What source types are available
- CSV / spreadsheet upload: best when you receive a file manually.
- FTP: best when a source file is delivered onto a server path.
- Google Sheets: best when the source is maintained in a shared live sheet.
Master Vs Sub-Import
How to decide which source does what
Sub-import
Use this for enrichment files that add descriptions, attributes, documents, or other content to products that already exist.
In practice, many teams use one main catalogue source as the master import and then one or more sub-imports for richer content from other suppliers or internal sources.
Mapping Fields
How to map columns correctly
Upload or connect the source
Once the file is available, Pricemaster can inspect the column headers.
Open the mapping screen
Choose which source column should fill each Pricemaster field.
Be careful with identifier fields
SKU, parent SKU, variant title, and attribute mappings are especially important for clean imports and good downstream exports.
Run the import and review the result
If the output looks wrong, fix the mapping before repeating the import.
Practical advice: if you are setting up a sub-import, make sure the file includes a reliable product identifier so Pricemaster can enrich the right products instead of creating confusion.
