Catalog

Use the catalog keyword to load master catalog or sales catalog data into the WebSphere Commerce database.

Previously, you could load this data only in CSV formatted files. We can now load information in a CSV or XML formatted input file. Your input file must contain CSV column or XML element names and definitions that specify the characteristics of the business object type we are loading into the database.
