🔄 Import & Export Volume Pricing Rules

Use bulk import/export to manage many volume pricing rules at once — ideal when you have large product catalogs or need to replicate rules across multiple stores.

Need to manage many pricing rules at once? Our Import / Export feature for Volume Pricing makes it simple. You can bulk create, edit, or migrate discount rules without having to configure each one manually — saving time and reducing errors.

📤 Export Existing Rules

  1. Go to B2B Pricing → Volume Pricing → Configuration.

  2. Click Export.

  3. Download the CSV file containing all current rules.

Use the exported file as a backup or starting point for bulk edits.

Step 3: Upload & Import

  1. Click Import on the Configuration page.

  2. Upload your CSV file.

  3. Choose import behavior:

    • Import and Add Rules — adds new rules without removing existing ones

    • Import and Replace Rules — deletes all current rules and replaces with the imported set

  4. The system validates your file and processes it in the background.

  5. Successful imports activate rules immediately. Rows with errors return specific error messages.


Best Practices

  • Always back up your current rules before replacing them entirely.

  • Use the sample file as a guide — errors often come from missing or improperly formatted fields.

  • Double-check customer and product identifiers (emails, SKUs, barcodes, variant IDs) to make sure they exist in your store — otherwise the rule won’t apply.

  • Keep priority numbers consistent so your new rules take effect in the intended order.

  • Use the merge option if you want to retain existing rules but add new ones.

  • Use the replace option when you're making a full refresh or restructuring your pricing logic.
