Overview
A .csv or comma-separated formatted file is another method that can be utilized in order to submit traceability data to FoodLogiQ. We have a standard template with specific column headers that will need to be retained. Simply enter each record as a new line within the file, and save as .csv. This is a manual method for submission, but the same file format could also be utilized via FTP upload (See FTP submission method section for more details).
Instructions for submitting a CSV file
- Login to FoodLogiQ, then click on “Events” within the left-hand navigation menu.
- Click on the 'Import Event' button in the upper-right section and select the type of event to import. (Shipping, Receiving, or Transforming)
-
Note: Harvesting (Aquaculture) and Landing events are not supported through .csv import at the current moment. Transforming events with seafood contents are additionally not supported currently.
