5.     Select the products and categories you want to import by selecting the respective checkboxes.

 

Note: You can also import all settings and products by checking Import all categories and products checkbox.

 

6.  Indicate the how much you would like to mark-up the item prices. Note: Dollar Days product prices reflect your cost, therefore you will need to mark-up the prices using the Global Price Changes feature to get a profit on any item you sell.

 

 

 

Selecting a duplicate category or product that already exist in your store may overwrite the existing ones. Hence, make sure you don't have a duplicate category and always check the product ID's of the categories you are importing.

Important: All Dollar Days items import into your cart with the shipping price already set. You will not need to set up any shipping methods for these products.
