Quick answer: Shipedge’s Import Products function under the Inventory tab lets you upload a CSV to add new SKUs to your account in bulk. For updating details on SKUs already in the system (dimensions, descriptions, UPCs, or other fields), contact your account manager.
How to Add New SKUs in Bulk via CSV
This is how you can add new SKUs in bulk, step by step:
Step 1: Prepare Your CSV File
Build your CSV with one row per SKU. The two required fields are:
-
SKU: your unique alphanumeric product identifier.
-
Description: a clear, specific product description that the warehouse team can use to identify the item without seeing it physically.
Additional fields to include where available:
-
UPC: strongly recommended. Units without a UPC on the physical product cause delays at receiving because the warehouse team can’t scan them into Shipedge in the normal flow. If your units have barcodes, include the UPC values in the CSV.
-
Weight: used for shipping rate calculation. Include if known.
-
Dimensions: length, width, height. Used for box selection and shipping rate calculation.
-
Country of Origin: required for international shipments.
-
HS Code: required for international shipments.
-
Declared Value: the sales price of the product.
Step 2: Log In and Navigate to the Inventory Tab
Log in to your Fulfyld client portal and click the Inventory tab from the main navigation.
Step 3: Click Import Products
Click Import Products to open the CSV upload screen. This is the bulk import function for adding new product records to Shipedge.
Step 4: Upload Your CSV File
Use the browse button to select your prepared CSV file from your computer. Once selected, click Upload to complete the import. Shipedge will process the file and add each row as a new product record in your inventory.
Step 5: Verify the Upload
After the upload completes, navigate to your inventory list and spot-check a sample of the newly added SKUs. Confirm that the SKU value, description, and UPC (if included) are displaying correctly.
Step 6: Notify Your Account Manager
After uploading new SKUs, let your account manager know. New SKUs need to be in Shipedge before the corresponding replenishment arrives at the warehouse.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the CSV import to update inventory quantities?
No. The Import Products CSV upload adds new product records.
What happens if I try to upload a SKU that already exists in Shipedge?
Contact your account manager before uploading a CSV that includes SKUs already in the system. Uploading an existing SKU through the Import Products function may create a duplicate record or overwrite existing product data, depending on how Shipedge handles the conflict.
Is there a limit to how many SKUs I can upload in a single CSV?
There’s no published SKU limit for a single CSV upload in Shipedge’s standard client portal. For very large uploads, contact your account manager before uploading so they’re aware and can confirm the file processes correctly.
Do I need to re-upload the full onboarding SKU template to add new products?
No. The onboarding SKU/Shipping Method Excel Template was used to set up your initial catalog during onboarding.
What if my new SKUs have different packaging or handling requirements than my existing products?
Include any special handling notes in your account manager communication when you notify them of the new SKUs. If the new products require FEFO tracking, custom packaging, or any other non-standard handling, those configurations need to be set up in Shipedge before the first replenishment of those SKUs arrives.
