Import settings decide how WISEPIM handles incoming product data. Set them once and every import behaves the same way, whether you run it or a teammate does. That means fewer surprises and cleaner data.
Import settings page showing import filters, conflict resolution, empty field handling, and validation options
These settings are project-wide defaults. You can still override any option when you run a specific import.

​
Filter which products import

By default, WISEPIM imports every row in your file. Add import filters to bring in only the products you want.
1

Open the filter modal

Click Add Filter to open the advanced filter modal.
2

Build a condition

Each condition has three parts:
  • Field: the product field to check (Product Name, SKU, Price, Stock Quantity, and more).
  • Operator: the comparison logic (equals, contains, is empty, greater than, and more).
  • Value: what to compare against. Operators like “is empty” or “has value” need no value.
3

Combine conditions

Use AND to require every condition. Use OR to require just one.
Use filters to skip test products, products below a price you set, or products missing key fields like SKU or EAN.

​
Handle duplicate products

When an imported product already exists in WISEPIM (matched by SKU or another identifier), conflict resolution decides what happens.
OptionWhat it does
MergeCombines existing and imported data, keeping the most complete value for each field.
OverwriteReplaces all existing data with the imported data for matched products.
SkipLeaves existing data untouched and ignores the imported duplicate.
Overwrite replaces every field on the existing product. Make sure your file holds complete data before you use it, or you may lose information.

​
Handle empty fields

This setting decides what happens when a field in your file is blank.
OptionWhat it does
Skip empty fieldsKeeps the existing value in WISEPIM unchanged.
Clear fieldRemoves the existing value and leaves the field empty.
Use default valueFills the field with the attribute’s configured default.
Skip empty fields is the safest choice. It prevents data loss when your file holds only part of a product’s information.

​
Choose how strictly to validate

Validation decides how carefully WISEPIM checks your data before it imports.
ModeWhat it does
StrictRejects any row with missing required fields or invalid formats. No partial imports.
StandardImports valid rows and skips rows with errors. You get a report of what was skipped.
LenientImports everything it can and auto-fixes minor issues, like extra spaces or odd formats.
Standard is the recommended default. It protects your data, stays flexible, and tells you clearly which rows did not import.

​
Save your changes

Edit any setting and a save bar appears at the bottom of the page:
  • Save: applies your import settings to the project.
  • Undo: reverts every change to the last saved state.
