Data Exports are available for Motor State dealers to get current information on all our stocking part numbers. This includes price, inventory, part numbers and product images, as well as other details for each part. Data Exports can be initiated from the Business Tools > Data Export menu.
The data export subscription plans give you access to the part data for our stocking part numbers. You will be able to set up and manage your own exports to run automatically at desired intervals with a variety of data set options. You may also select the option of doing an inventory feed only in addition to a regular data feed. You may use your own FTP server as a destination or request Motor State create one for you to use.
To begin, login in to your PriceGuidePro account. Click on the Business Tools tab (located just beneath the Lists button). Here you will find a list of tools available to you as a dealer. Click the Data Export option.
Here you will find the plan descriptions and the detailed information that is included for each plan. You can download a sample file from each to help decide which plan would best fit your needs. A full list of the data fields included is listed below each option.
Once you have selected a plan, you will be able to set up your export by clicking the yellow "Create a new export" button.
This will allow you to name your export, select the range of parts to include as well as choose the format you would like to use. All of the available options can be seen by clicking the down arrow in each box. The fields for the data are pre-selected, however you can click on/off any of the available fields. Once you have made your selections, click the yellow button to "Create and Save Export" or "Download File". If you are using an FTP, click on the blue “setup your FTP server” in the Data Storage section. This is where you can schedule your export to automatically generate.
