MMi (Multi Marketplace Ingestion)

  • Updated

MMi is used to import orders, customer, product and return data from other marketplaces that are not natively supported by ReturnPro. This is so you can still send your products to our facilities to process returns for supply chain and value added services. 

The "Import Returns" button located at the top right of the Returns grid allows you to import to ReturnPro via CSV files. Currently the single "+ Add item" functionality is not supported.

 

When you click the "Import Returns" button a drawer will open containing 2 options

  • Import "Orders, products and customer details"
  • Import "Returns details"

    each option has a template CSV file available for download by clicking the link below "Upload a file"
  • "orders_customers.csv" is available when you're on the "Orders, products and customer details"
  • "returns.csv" is available when you're on the "Returns details" selection

    The tables below will help you understand what data should be in these files.  BOTH files must be uploaded successfully for items to appear in the Returns grid

To verify that your files have been uploaded and processed correctly, you can check the import history.

Import history can be viewed by clicking the history icon located at the top right corner of the returns grid.

 

 

Verify that the processing is successful with a status of "Processed" 

Then verify that there are no errors in the processing.

 

In the import history drawer, scroll to the right and verify that records have all been processed and there are no invalid records.  If there are invalid records, you can download the validation error file to see what is wrong.

In most cases the DATE or UPC is formatted incorrectly.  Take care in EXCEL to ensure the dates are formatted as YYYY-MM-DD and UPCs do not change to scientific notation eg. 897546+e11.  To fix scientific notation UPCs simply add a ' in front of the UPC.  Be sure to save the file as CSV and DO NOT CONVERT.

You can also filter results of the MMi import history drawer by clicking on the FILTER option in the “Import Returns History” drawer.
