4. Identification of columns

You must identify all properties in Quant and assign a corresponding property in Quant to each column. In the Source Preview, click on the column header and set which property the column represents.

Assign column names

If you do not find the appropriate property in Quant, you must make this property optional. Creating optional properties is described in more detail in the manuals Creating custom product properties and Creating custom store properties.

Save the criteria to the Library so that you can use them again the next time you import. Quant remembers both the criteria set in the Import Settings and the order of the columns you selected in the Source Preview.
