    • GTIN (this is the important field)
  3. Locate the GTIN column (Column I on the Luminous template).
  4. Fill in the GTIN value for each SKU.
  5. Save your completed file.

Note:

  • Do not change column headers if using the template (this ensures auto-mapping works).

5. Verify Column Mapping

  1. Review how Luminous maps your columns:
  • Ensure GTIN → GTIN
  • Ensure SKU fields → correct SKU fields

  • Mapping should happen automatically.
  1. If using a custom file:
  • Carefully double-check all mappings before proceeding.

6. Complete the Import

  1. Proceed with the import.
  2. Luminous will assign each GTIN to its corresponding SKU.

7. Post-Import Notes

  • GTINs are successfully stored after import.
  • GTIN values may not be visible on the SKU front-end view.
  • They exist in the backend of the integration and are properly mapped.
