> Create or update WMS products from a current CSV export, review partial results and retry only intended rows.

Use a product CSV to create several SKUs or update existing products. Matching SKUs update existing records, so start from a current export and preserve fields you do not intend to change.

## Before you begin

You need product-management permission and whole-account access; client-scoped users cannot import products. Create the referenced clients and suppliers first. Review the [Product CSV field rules](/articles/14700000000041-import-and-export-wms-data-by-csv) before editing relationships, bundles or tracking.

## Prepare and import the file

1. Go to **Products** and select **Export all products (CSV)**.
2. Keep the exported header and instruction rows unchanged.
3. Retain only the rows you intend to create or update.
4. Enter the required SKU and name, then edit the intended fields. Preserve leading zeroes by treating identifiers as text.
5. Save as CSV UTF-8. Each import supports up to 5 MB and 15,000 data rows.
6. Select **Import CSV** and choose the file.
7. Follow the background progress and review created, updated and failed counts.
8. Open representative products and confirm their saved values and relationships.

## Correct errors and retry

A header-level failure stops processing. Once rows have processed, successful changes remain even if other rows fail or you cancel. Correct the failed rows and import only the intended retry set. A matching SKU updates again; it does not undo a previous change. Only one product import can run for an account at a time.
