Item Import Setups allows you to define which data is imported from Perfion and the mapping of said data. You can have multiple setups for importing different types of products.
While most of the definition of what data is imported and how is contained in the two tabs "Query" and "Mapping", each setup also has a name you can define to easily recognize what the import is for and an automatically generated number. Each setup also has a page size, which determines how many products are retrieved with each call to the Perfion API, which in turn can affect performance if set too high or too low. Default page size is 100.
The Query tab The Query tab contains the query used for defining what data to retrieve from the Perfion API: If you want to make sure not to import data that hasn't been changed in Perfion since the last import you can use [%LastImport] in a where clause of the query to filter out unchanged data. Using the "Test query" button you can test that the query is valid and save the response if you want to.
The Mapping tab The mapping tab contains both the record root node and the mapping between SAP B1 item fields and the XPaths to the values those fields should be filled with and any default value for those fields.
