How To Import Listings

How To Import Listings

1. As a user with the role 'Direct Upload Listings' added to the account I will be able to view and click on the 'Import Listings' button. If the account does not have the role the button is not visible. As an AP#1 user I see the Import Listings button when viewing the UMG account, even if I have not changed user.

2. The role is company wide and turns it on or off for a entire account - there is no Yard or User level impact.

3. As a user when I click on the Upload Listings button a popup appears

4. As a user once I have uploaded a file I can view the name of this file, remove it or Upload to proceed.

5. As a user once I click Upload the listings in the file are added to Listings provided the file follows the agreed upon format.

6. As a user when I click upload I can also Download a template of how the CSV needs to be structured.  "Yard Ref' can either be the Yard Id (AutoPlay's ID) or the Yard Code. The code tries to find the yard record by Yard ID first and then by Yard Code if that didn't work
