The importer shows a selected CSV followed by a draft with three sample products and photos. Information is reviewed before confirmation; a saved import is not shown.

Bring your catalog from a link, Excel, CSV or PDF. Review names, prices, categories and images before saving. Check each item, make corrections and add photos. You decide what content to confirm and publish for your customers. Vértice Digital. Your business, always with you.

Choose your example.

Each file has 4 fictional items and 10 columns. Excel and CSV contain the same data. Prices are COP examples, not suggested selling prices. Replace rows before using them in your business.

Excel has one sheet with no formulas or macros. CSV uses UTF-8 and semicolons. If Excel opens a CSV in one column, use Data → From Text/CSV with a semicolon delimiter, or download the .xlsx version.

How to use the file.

  1. 01

    Download and adapt a copy

    Choose your activity. Replace the four fictional rows with your items; do not add titles, subtotals or merged cells to the table. Use one row per item and keep the headers.

  2. 02

    Upload the file in your catalog

    In the app, open Catalog or Menu and products, find Import catalog and choose Excel or CSV. Files are not uploaded on this page: upload them inside your business workspace.

  3. 03

    Confirm the sheet and columns

    Select the data sheet and header row. Review the mapping for name, price and additional fields. Excel examples have one sheet to simplify this step.

  4. 04

    Review the draft and warnings

    Check names, categories, prices, item types and, where relevant, costs and quantities. Review duplicates and choose how to handle them. Complete or correct data before selecting what to import.

  5. 05

    Confirm and check the result

    Save only when the draft is correct. Review the resulting catalog, photos and availability. For retail, also check whether starting inventory was loaded before entering those quantities again.

What each column means.

Name and price are the foundation. Other fields depend on the item and your workflow. A blank cell and zero do not mean the same thing.

Name
Required
The name your team and customers will recognize.
Sale price
Required
A numeric value such as 26000. Sample amounts are in COP. Use your business's configured currency; changing a column label does not convert currencies.
Category
Optional
Group items, for example Burgers or Stationery.
Description
Optional
Useful item details. Describing hours here does not configure appointment availability.
Item type
Review for services
Use product for physical goods or service for direct services without stock. Configure appointments separately.
SKU
Optional
An item identifier. Use text to preserve leading zeros; do not reuse a code for different items.
Unit cost
For stock loading in Retail Digital
Cost per unit, not total inventory cost. Leave unknown costs blank and complete them before loading quantities; use 0 only for a real zero cost.
Quantity
Depends on workflow and plan
Starting physical stock. Does not create ingredient inventory in restaurants. Services have no quantity. For services and manual-stock plans, add stock through Catalog.
Minimum stock
Optional for products
A replenishment reference for a physical product. Not used for services.
Image URL
Optional
A direct public link to a photo you may use. Samples leave this blank for your own images; you can also add photos later in the app.

If something does not look right.

The price looks different

Examples use whole numbers without currency symbols or thousands separators. Review the importer's separator settings and the draft's amount before confirming.

Rows are skipped or repeated

Check that every row has a valid name and price. Review warnings and duplicates; correct the file or draft rather than confirming an incomplete list.

Photos do not appear

Samples have no image links. Add a direct public URL or upload photos in the app. Product pages and private files may not be readable as images.

Inventory does not match

Check the item type, plan and stock-loading mode. Restaurants need ingredients or recipes; only physical products carry stock in services. Check a load's result before repeating it.

My source is a PDF or link

Use a text-based PDF or supported public catalog. Scans, protected pages and some layouts may need adaptation. Always review the draft; Excel and CSV let you arrange fields explicitly.
