Volusion Source Data Export

Export the required Volusion standard tables and product image URLs as CSV files for file-based migration.

When Volusion is selected with File Upload, the standard Source file set is:

EntityExpected filename
GlobalExchangeRates.csv
TaxTax.csv
CategoryCategories.csv
ProductProducts.csv
CategoryOptionCategories.csv
ProductOptions.csv
ProductKITS.csv
ProductKITLNKS.csv
ProductProductImages.csv
CustomerCustomers.csv
OrderOrders.csv
OrderOrderDetails.csv
OrderTrackingNumbers.csv
ReviewReviews.csv

Volusion file-based migration uses STANDARD EXPORT for the main source tables. If the store has more than one image per product, also create the ProductExport saved query so the migration package includes the product image URLs that Next-Cart needs to process those images.

  1. Sign in to Volusion.

  2. Go to Inventory > Import/Export and open STANDARD EXPORT.

    Volusion Export Data

  3. In Export From, choose the table to export.

  4. Under Columns, select Check All.

  5. For File Format, choose CSV - Comma Delimited Text File.

  6. Click Export, then click Download in the pop-up when the export is ready.

  7. Repeat the process for the data areas required by the migration. Export the following tables ExchangeRates, Tax, Categories, Products, OptionCategories, Options, KITS, KITLNKS, Customers, Orders, OrderDetails, TrackingNumbers, and Reviews.

When the Volusion store has more than one image per product, create the ProductExport saved query and export its result as a separate CSV. The query generates the product image URL columns that must accompany the other Volusion source files.

Go to Inventory > Import/Export > Saved Exports, then click Add New Query. Configure the saved query with these exact values:

FieldValue
QB Customer ID0
QB TableDB_EXPORT
QB TitleProductExport
QB Query TypeSELECT
QB Export File TypeCSV

In QB Query, paste the following query exactly:

SELECT
p.ProductCode AS 'Unique Retailer SKU'
, 'Config_FullStoreURLConfig_ProductPhotosFolder/'
+ p.ProductCode + '-2.jpg' AS 'Image URL 1'
, 'Config_FullStoreURLConfig_ProductPhotosFolder/'
+ p.ProductCode + '-3.jpg' AS 'Image URL 2'

FROM Products p
INNER JOIN Products_Descriptions pd ON
p.ProductID = pd.ProductID
INNER JOIN Products_Extended pe ON
pd.ProductID = pe.ProductID
ORDER BY p.ProductCode

After the fields and query are complete:

  1. Select Save to create the saved query.

  2. Return to Inventory > Import/Export > Saved Exports. In Saved Queries, choose ProductExport.

  3. For File Format, choose CSV - Comma Delimited Text File, then select Export.

  4. When the export completes, select Download. Keep the downloaded Product image URL CSV with the rest of the Volusion export package and prepare that supported upload file as ProductImages.csv.

Confirm that:

  • every required standard table was exported with all columns;
  • each CSV opens without structural errors;
  • ProductExport is included when the store has more than one image per product; and
  • the Product image URL CSV contains Unique Retailer SKU plus the expected Image URL columns.
  • Re-run only the affected standard export after checking the selected table and columns.
  • If ProductExport is missing, create the saved query using the exact field values and SQL above, then export it again.
  • If a generated file is empty or unreadable, create a fresh export instead of editing the file manually.
  • If a required data area remains unavailable, stop before substituting another file and submit a support ticket with the platform, missing data area, and export option you used.
  • After correcting the export, repeat the verification checks before upload.

Continue with Upload Source Data Files to prepare and validate the exported files for the Source connection.
