# Inventory Migration Template

## Make your inventory import process easier with ArtCloud's Inventory Migration Template

[This helpful article](https://help.artcld.com/en/knowledge/import-your-inventory) covers the process of importing Inventory into ArtCloud in bulk. It also covers where to download ArtCloud's **Inventory Import** **Template**.The Inventory Import Template can be opened by any spreadsheet software that can open .CSV (Comma Separated Values) files, such as **Microsoft Excel**, **Google Sheets**(free), **Numbers**(by Apple), or **Libre Office Calc**.

**NOTE:** Your first migrations into ArtCloud should occur in the following order: **Contacts** -\> **Inventory** -\> **Invoices**.

The template works based on column names. Every row (**A**, **B**, etc...) is an Inventory Record, and the intersecting columns are what field that cell will be populating. For example:

|  | **title** | **inventory\_number** | **sku** | **artist\_first\_name** | **artist\_last\_name** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **A** | Marilyn | 333 | AW\_100 | Andy | Warhol |
| **B** | Wheatstacks | 334 | CM\_001 | Claude | Monet |

The first piece's title is *Marilyn*, and it's Inventory Number is 333. Its SKU is AW\_100, and the artist is Andy Warhol. The second piece's title is *Wheatstacks*, and its Inventory Number is 334. Its SKU is CM\_001, and the artist is Claude Monet.

**NOTE:** Fields can be left empty with no consequence, and you can include as many or as few pages as you please. **Keep in mind that adding information to existing Inventory records after an import may result in a fee.**

### How do I import images with my inventory items?

Most fields can be left empty depending on how you would like to add images to your pieces. You may want to add the images to your pieces one by one on your own, depending on how many pieces are being uploaded. However, if you are importing *several* inventory items, the ArtCloud team can assist you. Contact us at **support@artcld.com** before working on your import if you need assistance.

### What if I have multiple editions of a piece?

If you have an artwork that has multiple editions, you'll need to create a row for each edition. You'll need to specify what the edition number of the piece is (1st edition, 3rd edition, etc.), and how many editions in the series exist using the **edition\_number**, and the **edition\_count** column. You may also want to set a unique **sku** for each edition, since they are 4 separate inventory items rather than copies of just one. **The title of the piece should be kept the same**. Below is an example of an artwork with four editions.

 

|  | **title** | **artist\_first\_ name** | **artist\_last\_ name** | **SKU** | **edition\_number** | **edition\_count** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **A** | The Ant | M.C. | Escher | MCE01 | 1 | 4 |
| **B** | The Ant | M.C. | Escher | MCE02 | 2 | 4 |
| **C** | The Ant | M.C. | Escher | MCE03 | 3 | 4 |
| **D** | The Ant | M.C. | Escher | MCE04 | 4 | 4 |
