Allocation Strategy Imports
What's new
You can now import a file to create new allocation strategies in bulk — including store assignments and start and end dates. Note: the import creates new strategies only and will not update any that already exist in Toolio.
What you can do
- Create strategies from a file– Each row represents a style-color and store combination. Use this sample file as a reference for the required format and fields.
- Import start and end dates– Dates are applied directly when the strategy is created, so your allocation window is set from the start.
- Define store inclusion per style-color– Stores listed in the file are included; any store not listed is excluded.
- Override in the UI when needed– Start and end dates can still be adjusted per strategy or per location in Toolio after import.
Why it helps
- Eliminates manual strategy setup for large assortments — import once and your strategies are ready.
- Allocators stay in control: the import is the starting point, and everything can be adjusted in the UI after creation.
