Phasing out products can be done in several ways. It is preferable to do this via the front end and the API. (For more information, see the page: 'How do I phase-out products'). You can also send us a list of products and we will phase them out for you.
In order to process the list, the information must be supplied in a fixed format. The file must be a CSV file separated by commas. Send the file to support@optiply.nl and we will process the list for you within 48 hours.
Below you can read how you can phase out several products at once by means of a list.
Phasing out
In order to phase out products, we need the information below as shown in the image. You can enter this information in this file.
skuCode,notBeingBought
123-ABC,TRUE
898-OIU,TRUE
093-PEX,TRUE
098-WEK,TRUE
ATTENTION! To phase out a product, pass notBeingBought = TRUE !
For this, you ensure that the stock of these products is replenished to 0.
Date
It is also possible to phase out products until a certain date. Then supply the list of products in the following way:
skuCode,notBeingBought,resumingPurchase
123-ABC,TRUE,2020-01-24
898-OIU,TRUE,2020-10-29
093-PEX,TRUE,2020-05-06
098-WEK,TRUE,2020-08-15
A template of this file can be found here.
Of course, you can also indicate that products have to be purchased again. You can turn products On (TRUE) and Off (FALSE) in one list.
skuCode,notBeingBought
123-ABC,FALSE
898-OIU,TRUE
093-PEX,FALSE
098-WEK,TRUE
If you want, you can make the same import using this same file through the Product Page in Optiply
