how to import items from shopify to square

hey non-techies this is just from,non-ticking entrepreneur,today we will be going over,how to import items into square,all links and chapters will be listed in,the description below and if you are,looking for more videos on the square,platform check out the playlist listed,on the card above,once you are logged into your square,dashboard,you will go to,items and orders,this will open your sub menu where you,will click items,from here,we have items already listed,with modifiers into our,item library,and to import we will click actions,and import library,this will bring up a menu for your,import type,where you can modify item library by,adding new items and updating your,existing ones,or overwriting any existing items,on in your item library so if you have,anything listed if you,click replace item library,it will delete everything that is,currently listed in,with the,modify item library it will add in new,items and not touch your existing items,for this tutorial we will be doing the,modify item library which will add the,new items in,and update any of the existing ones that,we may want to keep,then we'll click next,and it will bring you to a menu to drag,and drop your file here and in order for,you to add your file here it has to be,in a specific format,so for that we will click the download,your item library file which is a,template that would allow us to input,the right information in,you can export to excel or export to csv,for this tutorial we will do to excel,which we will update in google sheets so,we'll click export,it will give us our download and then we,will open it up in google sheets,to import the file into google sheets we,will open up a new,sheets document,then we will click file,and import from here,you can click upload,and drag and drop that file that we,downloaded,into,the,area,then we would like to replace the,spreadsheet since this is a brand new,file,and click import data,once you have uploaded your,square sheet,this is the information that you will,see,if you have products already inputted,then they will be shown here from here,we have our test,and then,our three variations for the test,description,category price,and such,going through,the items above,each product is given a token by square,so since these have already been,inputted,they have a token any new ones that we,add in we will not have to worry about,the token as once it's uploaded it will,be given a token by the square platform,next is item name this is the name that,will be shown,for the item,if you have any variations for,this product you can add them,by adding the name in here if it is all,one description for your variation then,you'll put in one description in the top,product,category goes all the way across such as,price,auto add and this will add in those,multiple,variations for this product so each item,name needs to be the same for these,variations to,come and be associated with this item,skew is next if you have a skew number,for your products you can add them here,description,category,price,auto ad item to checkout,this is if you are adding products for,your items that don't have variations,or don't have any modifiers they can be,added straight to checkout from the pos,you can input y for yes these are your,options,for this the option set is size and the,values are small medium and large,if you have one location added to your,business,then you will only see,one set of,enable,current quantity new quantity stock,alert,stock alert count,price,would be shown for your one location if,you have multiple locations you will see,them listed,the same here and you can have,which,location this product would be listed on,for,your,products,if you would like to have stock you'll,be able to put them in here for all the,items that you're importing then any,modifier says that you have already,inputted into your store there will be,an option created on your import sheet,here is where you can say,no or yes,to adding this modifier set,modifier sets are you can be used across,different products,so it has a set number of options that,you don't have to worry about going in,and adding,different variations if their modifiers,are already set so that is the import,sheet for,square,so now i'm going to add in the products,that i would like to import,so now that i have all of my items set,up with the name,variation,description,category,price,enable downtown enabled east side,because these are where i want my,products to be,and then i have no for,my last location now that i have all the,information in i'll go to file download,and,csv,this will put it into,a csv where i am able to upload it,right to,the file library then i'll click upload,and now the import inventory will be,added in,where i can make sure that all of these,sections,match,so now that we know that they match up,we will click confirm,then our import will be completed it,will tell us it was imported,successfully if there are issues then,you will get an error report that you'll,be able to go through but with it,formatted correctly we should run into,no errors,we'll refresh and we should see all of,our items in our library so here are our,items that we added from our import,we have our categories that have been,updated,locations,and price so everything was,sent over,perfectly the only thing that you're not,able to import are images so you will,have to go in and update those images in,your library,or by product,that is how to import items into your,square account,if this video was helpful give it a,thumbs up and
