- Click on the Menu icon.
- Select Import Packages option from the drop down.
- You will be directed to a page where you can upload the file to be imported.
Note: From here you can download a sample file to check the proper format for upload and ensure your package file matches that format, or directly proceed to upload that file.
- Upload the relevant .csv or .tsv type file from your hard-drive
- Choose the character encoding involved from the drop-down. By default, the character encoding is UTF-8(Unicode).
- Click Next to proceed to mapping the fields.

- You can manually match the unmapped ones or alter mapped ones.
- Check the box near the option Save these selections for use during future imports to automate mapping for future item imports.
