Adding Vendor Supplied XML/Images

[rocketpromo]

Hello Board,

 

Very new here so thank you for your patience... We are using OSC for our Promotional Products Company (www.rocketpromo.com/osc) Several of our vendors offer XML data/images for us to upload to our site. This will obviously save us a huge amount of time over adding products individually.

 

Can a community member point me in the direction of a tutorial or information regarding adding these XML files/images.

 

Regards,

Chris

That makes sense for the images, but where do I put the the data below which I assume is the XML data. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
