     - If a field is missing or incorrect, select the dropdown arrow to select the desired field.
     - Preview the data for the category on the right side of the window. Hovering over different rows updates the preview window.
     - Select **Continue.** 
5. On the next page, review the **Bulk Upload** table for any errors.

   **Expand to show screenshot**
   
   ![39906802221723.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/39906802221723.png?width=356&height=247&name=39906802221723.png)

 

## **Recycled Materials**

Use the **Sustainability Attribute** field in the **Material Library** to create recycled materials. PIC will automatically map these materials to the correct Tier 4 recycled processes from MSI when a match exists. Use this feature to model the impact of recycled content of products.

 

### **Prerequisites**

Before getting started, make sure of the following:

1. Select **Refresh Import Space** on the PIC Dashboard to ensure the new workbooks are updated.  
   ![49395324677019.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/49395324677019.png?width=594&height=125&name=49395324677019.png)
2. During bulk upload, you must have a data file that includes a column indicating which materials are recycled.  
   ![49395331853339.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/49395331853339.png?width=621&height=252&name=49395331853339.png)

 

### **Which materials have automatic Tier 4 recycled process mappings?**

If a material is not on this list, no recycled process option is available.

- Cotton
- Nylon
- Polyester
- Polyethylene (PE)
- Polypropylene (PP)
- Wool

 

### **How does it work?**

**Prepare the Upload File**

1. Include “**- Recycled**” in the **Material Name** column.  
   ![49395324678299.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/49395324678299.png?width=503&height=389&name=49395324678299.png) 
     - Recycled material example: **Cotton - Recycled**
     - Not recycled material example: **Cotton - Conventional**
2. Include a column for the sustainability attribute in the upload file.  
   ![49395331854747.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/49395331854747.png?width=503&height=389&name=49395331854747.png) 
     - If you are uploading recycled material, enter **Recycled** under this column.
     - If you are not uploading a recycled material, leave the sustainability attribute blank.

**Upload and Map Fields**

1. Upload your file [using these instructions](https://support.worldly.io/hc/en-us/articles/37618508429979-Product-Impact-Calculator-Material-Library?hsLang=en#h_01JWSA51RXGEMXYGHJV08KHPR8:~:text=the%20FacilityRawText%20field-,Example,-Next%2C%20let%27s%20walk), and you’ll see an option to map columns to the new **Sustainability Attribute** field.  
   ![49395324678939.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/49395324678939.png?width=584&height=330&name=49395324678939.png)
2. During the value-mapping step, map your **Recycled** values accordingly.  
   ![49395324680219.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/49395324680219.png?width=572&height=302&name=49395324680219.png)

**Download Impact Report - Tier 4 Process Assignment**

The download reports show the adjusted Tier 4 processes and impact for recycled materials.

## **Missing Info and Revising**

Select the **Missing Info** checkbox in the upper right-hand corner to target just the products that are missing information. In this case, all four products are missing purchase orders.

![40382534362139.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382534362139.png?width=1101&height=465&name=40382534362139.png)

By using the bulk upload, you can make tens of thousands of edits to your Product Library with a single file upload.

1. Check **Missing Info** box if you haven’t done so already.  
    
2. Click the first checkbox in the Product Library, and navigate to **Select all on this page**. Steps 1 and 2 will check all the items that are missing information, which can come in handy if you’re dealing with hundreds of thousands of products.  
   ![40382550449051.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550449051.png?width=1098&height=499&name=40382550449051.png)  
    
3. From the black navigation bar, select **Download.** This downloads a csv file that mirrors the selected rows in the **Product Library.**  
   ![40382550449691.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550449691.png?width=1100&height=503&name=40382550449691.png)  
    
4. Make any edits in the CSV file, in this case, adding the purchase order dates to the purchase order column. Make sure to save as a CSV file.  
   ![40463984934939.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40463984934939.png?width=2226&height=560&name=40463984934939.png)  
    
5. Back on the platform, select **Import.**![40765488754587.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40765488754587.png?width=771&height=69&name=40765488754587.png)  
    
6. Select the **Bulk Upload - BOM** workbook, or whichever workbook corresponds with the column headers in your file.
   
   ![40382550452635.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550452635.png?width=691&height=442&name=40382550452635.png)  
    
7. Drag and drop your file onto the screen.  
   ![40382550453403.gif](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550453403.gif?width=914&height=640&name=40382550453403.gif)  
    
8. Review the field mapping and value mapping on the next two windows before clicking **Continue**.  
   ![40382550457371.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550457371.png?width=905&height=643&name=40382550457371.png)  
    
9. On the next page, review the **Bulk Upload** table for any errors. 
     - The following example is for a company uploading a workbook with four products.  
       ![40382550458651.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550458651.png?width=1982&height=604&name=40382550458651.png)
     - The screenshot below has errors several errors that need to be resolved.  
       ![40382534377115.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382534377115.png?width=1041&height=313&name=40382534377115.png)
     - To resolve the errors, hover over the red shaded cells.  
       ![40382550460059.gif](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550460059.gif?width=650&height=312&name=40382550460059.gif)
     - The red cell under the Material 1 column is blank. Select Wool from the drop-down menu.  
       ![40382534383771.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382534383771.png?width=1042&height=338&name=40382534383771.png)
     - The red cells under Composition 1 column should be 100. Since these products are made with only one material (Material 2 and Composition 2 columns are not filled out), the composition must equal 100%. Enter 100 into the cells with 75.   
       ![40382550462747.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550462747.png?width=480&height=261&name=40382550462747.png)  
        
10. After the table has been reviewed and all errors have been resolved, click **Submit data.**  
    ![40382534385947.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382534385947.png?width=331&height=133&name=40382534385947.png)  
     
11. You’ll know if you were successful when you see the **Success** pop up.  
    ![40382550465307.png](https://support.worldly.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/40382550465307.png?width=516&height=184&name=40382550465307.png)
