Overview

The Import Products & Services feature in Kylas allows you to add multiple products or services to your CRM in one go using a CSV file.

Instead of manually creating each record, you can prepare a structured file with all product details — such as name, SKU, price, and tax — and import them easily.

This is especially useful for businesses handling large product catalogs or service listings.


Prerequisites

Before importing Products and Services, ensure:

  • ✅ You have Admin or Import Data permission in your Kylas CRM account.

  • ✅ Your file is in CSV (Comma-Separated Values) format.

  • ✅ The file includes properly labeled headers (like Name, Description, Price, SKU, etc.).

  • ✅ Any mandatory fields (such as Product Name or Price) are filled correctly.

💡 Tip: You can download a sample import template from the Import page in Kylas to format your data correctly.


Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these steps to successfully import Products & Services into Kylas:

Step 1: Log in and Navigate to Data Management

  1. Log in to your Kylas account via
    app.kylas.io
    .

  2. Click on the Settings icon (⚙️) from the left navigation panel.

  3. Under the Data Management section, click Import Data.

Step 2: Select Import Data

Once you’re in the Import Data page, you’ll see a list of entities that can be imported (Leads, Contacts, Deals, etc.).

Click on Products & Services from the list.

Step 3: Choose Products & Services Module

Select the Products & Services option as your target entity.
This tells Kylas that the data you’re uploading will go into your Products module.

Step 4: Upload Your File

  1. Click on Upload File.

  2. Choose your prepared CSV file from your computer.

  3. Once uploaded, you’ll see a preview of the data inside the file.

Step 5: Enable “My File Has Headers”

If your file contains column headers (like Product Name, SKU, Price, Tax, etc.),
make sure to enable the checkbox labeled “My file has headers.”

💡 This helps Kylas automatically recognize and map the column names correctly during field mapping.

Step 6: Map Fields

Now, you’ll need to map each column in your file to the corresponding Kylas field.

For example:


File ColumnKylas Field
Product NameProduct Name
SKU CodeSKU
Unit PricePrice
Tax (%)Tax
Product DescriptionDescription

If any field doesn’t exist in your Kylas setup, you can create a custom field before importing.

Info

Make sure to double-check field mapping for accuracy — incorrect mapping can lead to wrong data entry.

Step 7: Review and Import

  1. Once mapping is done, click Next.

  2. Review the summary screen to verify your mapping and record count.

  3. Click on Import to start the process.

You’ll receive a confirmation message once the import starts.

After completion, Kylas will notify you about:

  • Successfully imported records

  • Any failed records (with reasons, downloadable as a report for review)
