Create New Products from Excel

Download the template directly from NOBB Supplier or click here to download it from the Knowledge Base.

We have one import template for all product types. The product type is selected from the dropdown menu in column I.

Note: Select unit (meter, centimeter, millimeter) for width, length, and height on row 1, column C (this applies to product packaging).

Columns Marked in Yellow Must Be Filled in to Create the Product (in the import file)

• Supplier's item number

• Manufacturer's item number

• Product description 1

• NOBB module number

• Price unit

• Price (applies to standard products, not applicable to VA/VVS suppliers)

• Product type

• PK1_Class

• PK1_Type

• PK1_Consists of quantity

• PK1_Consists of unit

• PK1_Orderable

• PK1_Stocked

If you have a GTIN with leading zeros, you can change the format of the GTIN column to text.

Remember

There are additional mandatory fields that must be completed before a product can be published/sent for approval:

• Price (not applicable to special products or products in the VA/VVS channel)

• Price comparison unit (PSE) and Conversion factor for PSE

  • If the price unit or one of the product's packaging levels matches the PSE for the product group, the conversion factor will be filled in automatically.

• PK1_GTIN

• PK1_Height

• PK1_Length

• PK1_Width

• PK1_Weight

GTIN, dimensions, and weight are also mandatory for D-pack and T-pack (effective from September 4, 2025).
