Importing catalogues in EQ

Before you continue working in eStore you need to import your downloaded catalogues.

When you first login to EQ Software, the catalogues will automatically be downloaded when updates are available. When this happens should see a message similar to this when you first open EQ:

This system message will appear every time the administrator user opens EQ if there are catalogues waiting to be imported. Pressing Yes on this message will import those catalogues into your EQ system. It's important to note that if you have more than one system and they are networked everyone will need to logout and close EQ before you can do this.
