Importing catalog data into Quotalogic ​

This page explains how to export catalog, product, pricing, stock, or related commerce data from common international CMS, e-commerce, and data integration platforms before importing it into Quotalogic.

Use the exported file as a source file for import into Quotalogic. Before importing, check that the file contains at least the product name, SKU or article number, price, currency, and other fields required by your Quotalogic workspace.

Note: Platform interfaces may differ depending on version, installed modules, user permissions, and store configuration. When available, use the official documentation links below as the primary source.

General Import Process ​

  1. Open the administration panel of the system from which you want to export your product catalog.
  2. Locate the section for exporting products, the catalog, or the product database.
  3. Choose one of the supported export formats: CSV, XLS/XLSX or XML.
  4. Download the exported file to your computer or generate a download link, if supported.
  5. In Quotalogic, open the Catalogs section and upload the exported file.
  6. Review the imported data and map the source columns to the corresponding Quotalogic fields, such as Name, SKU, Price, and any other information you want to use in your quotations.

Preparing the exported file for Quotalogic ​

If your platform supports several export formats, CSV is usually the safest option. For complex catalogs with variants, multiple price lists, warehouses, or custom attributes, export a small sample first and check the field mapping before uploading the complete catalog.

Before importing the file into Quotalogic, check the following:

  1. Encoding — use UTF-8 where possible.
  2. Delimiter — CSV files may use comma, semicolon, or tab delimiters. Check which delimiter is used and select the same delimiter during import into Quotalogic.
  3. Required fields — make sure the file includes the product name, SKU/article number, price, and currency.
  4. Variants — check whether variants are exported as separate rows or nested fields.
  5. Images — image files are usually exported as URLs or file paths.
  6. Categories — category hierarchy may be stored as text paths, IDs, or separate columns.
  7. Prices and taxes — confirm whether prices include or exclude VAT/sales tax.
  8. Stock — confirm whether stock is exported per warehouse, per source, or as a total quantity.
  9. Custom fields — verify that platform-specific attributes are included if they are required in Quotalogic.

PrestaShop ​

Recommended format: CSV
Use case: Product catalog export from PrestaShop.

How to export ​

PrestaShop export capabilities depend on the version and installed modules. In many installations, product export is handled through back-office export tools, third-party modules, or custom export components.

A typical process is:

  1. Log in to the PrestaShop back office.
  2. Open the product or catalog section.
  3. Check whether your installation has a built-in export action or an installed product export module.
  4. Select the product fields to export.
  5. Export the file in CSV format.
  6. Upload the CSV file to Quotalogic.

Notes ​

  • CSV is the most practical format for PrestaShop catalog migration.
  • XLS/XLSX/XML export usually requires a marketplace module or a custom integration.
  • Confirm that combinations, attributes, images, categories, and prices are included if they are required in Quotalogic.

Official developer documentation for export components:
https://devdocs.prestashop-project.org/9/development/components/export/

  7. Upload the CSV file to Quotalogic.

Notes ​

  • Shopware uses import/export profiles to define which database fields are written to the CSV file.
  • If the default profile does not contain all required fields, create or adjust a profile before export.
  • Order export may require a separate profile.

Official documentation:
https://docs.shopware.com/en/shopware-en/settings/importexport

Drupal with Commerce module ​

Recommended format: CSV
Use case: Exporting Drupal Commerce products and variations.

  2. Create a new View for Commerce product data.
  3. Add the product and product variation fields you want to export.
  4. Add a Data export display to the View.
  5. Configure the path and access permissions for the export page.
  6. Open the export page and download the CSV file.
  7. Upload the CSV file to Quotalogic.

Notes ​

  • Drupal Commerce product export is configuration-based and depends on the product model used in the project.
  • Product variations, SKUs, prices, attributes, images, and taxonomy fields must be explicitly added to the View.
  • For complex catalogs, ask a Drupal administrator or developer to verify the export View before importing data into Quotalogic.

Official documentation:
https://docs.drupalcommerce.org/v2/developer-guide/products/product-management/#exporting-products

Joomla with VirtueMart ​

Recommended format: CSV
Other possible formats: XML, XLSX, JSON, depending on the extension
Use case: Exporting product data from a Joomla + VirtueMart store.

How to export ​

VirtueMart installations usually rely on import/export extensions. The exact steps depend on the extension installed in Joomla.

A typical process is:

  1. Log in to the Joomla administrator panel.
  2. Open the VirtueMart or export extension section.
  3. Choose a product export template or create a new one.
  4. Select the product fields to export, such as SKU, name, category, price, stock, and image URLs.
  5. Select CSV as the export format.
  6. Run the export and download the file.
  7. Upload the CSV file to Quotalogic.

Notes ​

  • VirtueMart export often requires extensions such as CSVI, Store Manager, or other dedicated export tools.

Salesforce ​

Recommended format: CSV
Other possible formats: XML in selected Salesforce Commerce catalog workflows
Use case: Exporting product, price book, account, or other structured Salesforce data.

Option 1: Export with Salesforce Data Loader ​

  1. Install and open Salesforce Data Loader.
  2. Select Export.
  3. Log in to Salesforce.
  4. Select the object to export, for example Product2, Pricebook2, or PricebookEntry.

Notes ​

  • Standard Salesforce Data Loader exports CSV files.
  • Product data in Salesforce may be distributed across multiple objects, for example products, price books, price book entries, and custom objects.
  • For Quotalogic import, verify that product identifiers and prices are exported from the correct Salesforce objects.

https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.dataLoader.meta/dataLoader/exporting_data.htm

Contao ​

Recommended format: CSV
Other possible formats: XLSX or XML, depending on the extension
Use case: Exporting structured data from Contao or a Contao-based e-commerce/catalog setup.

How to export ​

Contao does not provide one universal product catalog export workflow for all installations. The export method depends on the site architecture and extensions used, for example Isotope eCommerce, Catalog Manager, custom database tables, or dedicated export bundles.

Possible approaches:

  1. If the site uses Isotope eCommerce, check whether an export extension is installed for orders, products, or other commerce data.
  2. If the catalog is stored in custom Contao tables, use a table export extension or database export tool.
  3. Select CSV as the export format where available.
  4. Export the required product/catalog fields.
  5. Upload the CSV file to Quotalogic.

Notes ​

  • For a full site move, Contao documentation describes SQL database export, but SQL dumps are not suitable for direct Quotalogic catalog import.
  • For Quotalogic, prepare a structured CSV file with product-level fields.
  • If product data is stored in custom tables, ask the site developer to export only the required catalog fields.

  3. Use the actions menu in the listing header or grid.
  4. Choose Advanced export where available.
  5. Select the export format: Excel, CSV, or XML.

  7. Export the file and upload it to Quotalogic.

Notes ​

  • Available export options depend on user permissions and Xperience version.
  • Kentico UI export works for data shown in listings; for a complete product catalog, the relevant product/SKU listing must be used or configured.
  • Reports can also be exported to Excel, CSV, or XML where report export is available.

  • Verify field names and data types before uploading to Quotalogic.
