In Step 2 choose Quick Export, remember that the file must include UPC/EAN values (which are categorized as metadata in the plugin), quantity on hand, and price in the report. In Step 3 of the set up you will schedule the report to be sent to us. This will be explained below.
  5. Before scheduling the report make sure that you have set up your SFTP Profile in the plugin. You can follow the instructions here to get the SFTP profile set up or click View/Add SFTP Profiles in Step 3 of the set up. https://www.webtoffee.com/create-ftp-profiles-for-woocommerce-export-import/
