About this task
- You create a scheduled Price Sheet Download job for each provider.
- A single API fetches the Price Sheet details for all regions at once.
- When the scheduled time arrives, job execution happens in multiple stages (for example, connect to the provider, download the data, perform the post-import sort, and so on). The system logs status and results on the Price Sheet Executions page for each stage.
