Shopping Enginer Export Wizard

[CommunityJedi22]

Shopping Engine Export is an additional paid-for service.

The Shopping Engine Export (SEE) Wizard allows you to export product catalogs out of ChannelOnline for use on shopping comparison sites or inclusion into an external ERP database. This feature also includes the activation for your store to be indexed by search engines, and to perform a Full Catalog export once every 24 hours.

Note: the exported SEE catalog will be based on the assigned Price Profile used in a specified storesite.

Export Requirements
The maximum number of SKUs allowed at one time (per export) is 100K, however, there is no limit on the amount of products exported in total. If you intend to export more than 100K SKUs, you must break up your catalogs into several custom catalogs, each containing 100K SKUs or less for the export. Otherwise, if you export your full catalog, only the first 100K products will be exported. You may create custom catalogs from the Admin | Catalog Admin menu.

3. Click on Start Export to begin exporting your catalog.
