What this page does

Manual upload is useful when a supplier sends a file or it is prepared locally. The user selects the file and Eofferix saves it as the source working version.

How to use it

  1. Create a source with Manual upload module.
  2. Select XML, YML, CSV, JSON, XLS, XLSX, XLSM or ZIP.
  3. Start upload and wait until it finishes.
  4. Check the current file and replace it if needed.
  5. Open profile or configure table layout.

Expected result

  • The file is stored in user storage.
  • The source gets a working version for profiles.
  • Old versions follow source retention rules.

Common issues

  • Large files may take time and hit storage limit.
  • ZIP should contain supported data, not arbitrary files.
  • Replacing a file may trigger Schema Guard if structure changed.
