OneFlo - Bulk Import Consignments

Stop!

Are you uploading more than 200 consignments?

Uploading a large file can put a lot of strain on the system and can take quite some time to load. It is not recommended to load more than 200 cons at a time. It is best practice to break large numbers of cons into 200 cons or less

Step 1: Accessing the Import Consignments page

In OneFlo, click on the settings cog in the top right hand corner of the page > Click Import Consignments

Step 3: Mapping the file

The page should look like this, though there could be some small differences:

The top section is for editing any errors:

And the bottom section is for mapping the headings. If there are any --Select File Column-- In the second column, click on the drop down boxes and match them to the first column appropriately:

 

 

Step 4: Importing the file

After mapping the file headers, click Import Data t the top of the screen.

This will take you to a new screen where, if there are any errors, they can be corrected here. Refresh the page after a while to see if any errors appear, or if they have processed. If there are a large number of consignments, this may take some time to process.

Clicking the green triangle will show what the errors are, if there are any.

This screen is where most of the errors can be fixed. For example, Receiver Location is invalid is because either the postcode or suburb is incorrect.
