Instructions for Uploading with BookTrakker Pro

Retail is the default Price used for uploads. File > Export > UIEE > Export Setup to change this. Retail is the middle Price on the Prices tab in Inventory.  

 

BookTrakker automatically creates and uploads your data when you click "Process and Upload Records" in the Online page. But first you need to set up the FTP program to do this. Click the Online button at the top of your BookTrakker screen. 
IMPORTANT: Before doing your initial upload you MUST purge your records from all the online services you are using. See WARNING below. This does not apply if you have never listed with a given service.
IMPORTANT: After setting up the Services and  be sure to read Initial Upload File, After Your First Upload to a Service, and All Further Uploads.

WARNING: Before doing your initial upload you MUST purge your records from all the online services you are using. Record formats in BookTrakker will be different from what you have now. You must also inform the online services, other than Amazon, that you are changing to BookTrakker and uploading with a BookTrakker UIEE file, via FTP, before setting up the online services in BookTrakker. You may not be able use the same username/passwords you use for uploading through the service website. You should wait until you are satisfied with all your data importing before doing this purge, since you need to send a replacement file from BookTrakker for this to work.  

Most of the online services use a different username and password for FTP uploads, which is how you will be uploading through BookTrakker. They do this for security reasons. You will need to contact each service and ask for a new username and password for uploading through BookTrakker. Website usernames and passwords usually will not work. (Alibris is the exception, as is Amazon, which is not covered in these instructions. See: Amazon for Amazon upload instructions.)

In BookTrakker Pro, click the Online button at the top of the screen:
 
         

h

   

The Online Control Panel opens.
Click the New Service button in the bottom left of the Online Control Panel:




Click the dropdown button in the top field, select the service desired. The service address fills out below. (Note that ABE and Alibris changed their addresses, see below for new address. Corrected in version 3.0 of BookTrakker. Antiqbook also changed their URL, see below for the corrected address) If your service is not in the list then you will need to type it in, as well as the URL. See the list below. Click :  



After entering all the information for this page you MUST click the Test button to see if you have set the account up correctly. If you get any other message than "Host Found. Test Passed" then either you set it up incorrectly or the service did not properly set up your account. After you have tested the service you MUST click if you want to save any of the information typed in the Service or Account pages, followed by on the File tab. Click Yes to the error message you may get if the Test fails. If you click Cancel then any changes made are lost. Even if the Test fails, you need to do this to save information. You can always change it later.


General Upload Instructions 
  

Also see specific instructions that follow General Upload Instructions for each service.

If required, replace "Username" or "Password" with yours, or use the defaults required by the services. Pay attention to the slashes "/" and other info in the account path. The Account Path must be filled in exactly as specified by each service.
 
Enter account name as provided by the service: username
Account password: password
Account path: /username 
or 
/            
NOTE: Some services require that you leave everything blank after the slash.

In "Account Path" type in a slash followed by your Online Service supplied User Name, or type in a slash with the following spaces left blank, as required by the individual service.  

Note: The slash is essential; do not omit the slash UNLESS SPECIFIED by a Service. If you must enter a username after the slash (/) do not leave a space between the slash and your Account Name. Example: /BigBookstore

Do not use the ABE example as your template for all the other services; they are all different. 

 IMPORTANT: After doing your first upload, be sure to read the last few paragraphs in this document! You do not have to upload All Online Inventory after the initial upload.

File > Export > UIEE > Export Setup

In the Online File Name and Path, please choose a filename which is recognizable as your own. For instance, if your name is Smith's Books, choose something like smiths_1.txt. The only rule for the filename is that it should end with .txt. The alternative to this if you do not have a free Online Filename and Path field for a custom filename is to make sure the first record has the name of your business in Author, as a dummy record, so Popula can look at the file and determine it is yours.
