# The Excel import takes a very long time.

<title>&lt;span class="fr-marker" data-id="0" data-type="true" style="display: none; line-height: 0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="fr-marker" data-id="0" data-type="false" style="display: none; line-height: 0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</title>When importing a excel file into the Exchange module, RetailVista checks all specified rules. This can take some time for large files, especially if all rules need to be imported.

If only a portion of the rules needs to be imported, it is better to indicate how many rules should be imported and from which rule during the import process. This will improve the import speed.
