Problem
Import from Chrome Inventory Everywhere ?. What fields and in what order should the Chrome configuration for the Desk Lot service be set as?

Solution
The configuration for Delimiter in both DeskLot and in CIE should be Comma (,). The configuration for Text Qualifier in both DeskLot and CIE should be Double Quote ("). The Text Qualifier is needed because CIE often exports commas's in vehicle descriptions. When/if you contact Chrome Support, make sure they configure your "Desk Lot" export per this documentation exactly.

CIE should export to the file "C:\Program Files\WalkTheLot DeskLot\Chrome\Chrome.csv" as this is the location and file the default DeskLot configuration for importing a CIE export looks for.
