Try it with example files

A small sample. A clearer first try.

Learn how each tool works with made-up product data and test labels. Every example explains what to do and what to look for.

Product file examples

For a comparison, download the current catalog and its supplier update. A file-check example needs just one file, so it has no update download.

CSVCompare files

A weekly price update

See how a supplier price change, an empty stock cell and a new product are handled.

What to look for

With Price only, 0001 changes from 12.00 to 13.20 and keeps stock 15. Product 0003 stays unchanged. New product 0004 needs approval. If you enable stock updates, 0002 changes to stock 0.

How to try it
  1. Download both CSV files. Add the current catalog first and the supplier update second.
  2. Choose Compare an update. Match products using SKU.
  3. Choose the Price only preset, then calculate the review. To practise stock changes too, allow updates to Stock and keep blank cells set to Preserve.

International text and decimal prices

Work with accented names, Japanese text and prices that use a decimal comma.

What to look for

The identifiers stay 0007 and 0008. Names such as Café mug and 東京 notebook stay readable. Prices change to 13,75 and 6,60.

How to try it
  1. Download both files and add the current catalog first.
  2. Check that the separator is a semicolon and the names display correctly.
  3. Match by SKU and choose the price fields you want to change. Choose a decimal comma before applying arithmetic.

Different sizes with the same SKU

Two sizes share a SKU. Use a second field to tell them apart.

What to look for

SKU alone is blocked as an ambiguous match. SKU + Size produces two clear price changes: S to 11 and M to 13.

How to try it
  1. Add the current catalog and update, then choose SKU as the matching field.
  2. Calculate a review to see why the match is ambiguous.
  3. Go back and select both SKU and Size. Allow Price updates and calculate again.

Two suppliers, one product

Two supplier files propose different values for the same product.

What to look for

The conflict is blocked by default. If supplier A has the highest priority, the price is 13.00. If B has priority, it is 14.00.

How to try it
  1. Add the current catalog, then supplier A and supplier B.
  2. Choose Merge supplier files and match by SKU.
  3. Allow price changes. Review the conflict, then choose a source priority only if you want one supplier to win.

CSVCheck one file

Find problems in a single file

Find a repeated header and a row with one extra value. The mistakes are intentional.

What to look for

The repeated header and the extra value are reported. Do not treat the original file as a clean product list.

How to try it
  1. Download the single file and choose Check one file.
  2. Inspect the rows and findings before calculating a review.
  3. Correct the file and select it again, or explicitly exclude each problem row before exporting.

This example checks a single file. No supplier update is needed.

Shopify variants and extra image rows

A sample product has two sizes and a separate row for an extra image.

What to look for

SHIRT-S changes to 11 and SHIRT-M to 13. The extra image row stays separate. The example.com image links are placeholders, not live product images.

How to try it
  1. Add the current catalog and supplier update, then choose the Shopify profile.
  2. Match by Variant SKU. Allow Variant Price to change.
  3. Review both variants and check that the separate image row remains.

WooCommerce product prices

Practise updating regular prices in a simple WooCommerce product file.

What to look for

WC-001 changes to 6.60 and WC-002 to 2.20. Names and stock stay unchanged when only Regular price is updated.

How to try it
  1. Add the current catalog first, followed by the supplier update.
  2. Choose the WooCommerce profile, match by SKU and allow Regular price to change.
  3. Leave other fields preserved, then review and approve the two price changes.

Commas and line breaks in descriptions

Check that commas, quotation marks and line breaks inside a description stay in the right cell.

What to look for

Two records remain. The names Mug, ocean blue and Notebook "A5" keep their punctuation, and the two-line description stays in one cell.

How to try it
  1. Add both files and inspect the preview.
  2. Check that each file has two product records, even though one description spans two text lines.
  3. Match by SKU and update Price. Download the result and load it again to inspect the same text.

Excel XLSXCompare files

An Excel version of the weekly update

Try two real XLSX workbooks, with product identifiers stored as text and a separate Notes worksheet.

What to look for

The result matches the weekly CSV example. Leading zeros stay intact. The Notes sheet is not part of the product data.

How to try it
  1. Download and unzip the two workbooks.
  2. Add current-catalog.xlsx first, then supplier-update.xlsx.
  3. Use the Catalog worksheet in the first file and Supplier update in the second. Continue with SKU matching and Price only.

Shipping label examples

Try a simple crop, a rotated label or a mixed packet. All labels are marked TEST / NO POSTAGE and cannot be used for shipping.

PDF

A label inside an A4 page

Remove the extra invoice text around one label.

What to look for

One label is included. The invoice text stays outside the visible crop. Choose image-only output if you need a fresh PDF containing only the selected pixels.

How to try it
  1. Add the sample PDF to the label tool.
  2. Draw a region around the label. Keep its border and the space around the barcode.
  3. Mark the page as labels, choose 4 × 6 inch paper, and review the result.

PDF

Two labels on one page

Create a separate crop for each label instead of printing the whole A4 page.

What to look for

Two label regions become two labels. Their order follows the order you choose in the tool.

How to try it
  1. Add the PDF and select the first label.
  2. Add a second region for the other label. Check both crops.
  3. Keep the page as labels and choose a layout for the two regions.

PDF

A sideways shipping label

Practise reviewing page orientation and choosing the right output paper.

What to look for

One label is kept with all of its content visible. Its output page is 101.6 × 152.4 mm.

How to try it
  1. Open the sample and check the preview. The source page has a 90° rotation.
  2. Keep the full visible label and check its orientation.
  3. Choose 4 × 6 inch paper and make a test print at Actual size.

PDF

A scanned label with no selectable text

Try manual cropping and optional text recognition on an image-only label.

What to look for

You can crop the label without OCR. If OCR is used, look for SCANNED TEST and NO POSTAGE in the recognised text. Recognition can vary and does not validate the label.

How to try it
  1. Open the sample and try reading the PDF text. This page has no text layer.
  2. If needed, enable optional local OCR and run it on the page. Check the recognised text yourself.
  3. Keep the crop, choose the paper size, and review the output.

Labels and paperwork in one packet

Review eight pages with different layouts, an extra document and a duplicate.

What to look for

Five labels, one supporting page and three excluded pages. Page 7 duplicates page 4; page 8 is a scan you can practise with separately.

How to try it
  1. Keep one region on pages 1, 3 and 4, and two regions on page 2.
  2. Keep page 5 as a supporting document. For this exercise, exclude pages 6, 7 and 8.
  3. Review all eight page decisions, then download the PDFs and page report.
