# How do I import equipment data into Onix Maker?

1. Create order at _[maker.onix.com](http://maker.onix.com) \> **Serialized orders** module \> **+ New** \> Fill in order information_ \> Save.
2. Open the order and go to **Serialization** tab.
3. Click **Import** , then drag and drop or browse to your file.

> ℹ Notes
> 
> - Wait for the data validation to complete. Don’t leave the page or close the app during this process.
> - If the file has errors, download the error details file, fix the issues listed for each row, and re-import.

Once validation succeeds, the equipment becomes available for scanning across Onix. You’ll receive an email from Onix when it’s ready.

# Can I update equipment that I’ve already imported?

Yes. Onix Maker identifies serialization items by their Global ID. If a new import file contains a Global ID that already exists, the other field values for that item are overwritten. You can update any field except the Global ID itself.   
  
To update existing items, prepare a new import file and follow the same import steps as above.
