Importing ProductProduct Product refers to anything (an idea, item, service, process or information) that meets a need or a desire and is offered to a market, usually but not always at a price. Line Items
When importing — or updating existing — Opportunities, it’s now possible to import Product Line Items. You can import Product Name (this must match an existing Product), Quantity and the Unit Price that the product was sold for.
Your import CSV file will need to be prepared following the template format exactly with each Product Line Item on a separate row. You can select the field that identifies the Opportunity that the Products should be added to in the Import Settings option under the “Grouped by” field. For example, if your file contains a row per Product and each row has an identical Opportunity name, you would group by Opportunity name to avoid creating duplicate opportunities and to ensure all products are added to the same opportunity.

Importing Multiple Fields
Previously, when importing Leads, if your list contained company and contact information in any more detail than name, phone number and email address, you needed to separately import Accounts and then Contacts and finally your Leads. Now, instead of 3 separate imports, you can do it all in a single import from the Leads (also from the Opportunity, Contacts or Accounts menu).
Use the More Fields option on the Field Mappings screen to map website, address, more phone numbers, contact job title etc. You can map fields more than once — so you just need a single column for Owner, for example, and can map it to an AccountAccount Account refers to a record of primary and background information about an individual or corporate customer, including contact data, preferred services, and transactions with your company. and a Contact and a LeadLead Lead refers to a prospect or potential customer (who can be an individual or organization) that exhibits interest in your service or product; or any additional information about such entity. or you could map the same address fields to both an Account and a Contact.
