GRID MAPPING

The first time you import a specific product type (footwear apparel, etc.), you will be asked to map the product grid to an existing grid in RICS. If you do not select a grid from the list, a new grid will be created.

Note: Once a grid has been mapped, it will permanently be applied to all future imports of the same product type.

  1. From the dropdown menu, select the option to create a new grid, or select the appropriate grid for the product you are importing.
