# Manage Product Relations with the Import Tool

Step-by-Step Instructions

- Choose **RelatedProducts** from the template type dropdown.
- Download the template file to your computer.

#### **2. Complete the Template**

- **ProductId**: Enter the ID of the main product.

### [How to Remove Product Relations](https://support.geins.io/manage-product-relations-with-the-import-tool#Remove) You can remove product relations in two different ways using the Remove column:

#### **Remove all relations of a specific type** To remove all related products of a specific relation type for a product:

- Fill in the `ProductId` (or `ProductName`)
- Add the `Type` of relation you want to remove
- Set the `Remove` column to `Remove`
- Leave the related product columns (`Related1–6` or `RelatedCSV`) empty

**Result**: All relations of that type will be removed from the product.

#### **Remove specific related products** To remove only certain related products from a relation type:

- Fill in the `ProductId` (or `ProductName`)
- Add the `Type` of relation
- Add id(s) for the the specific related products to remove in `Related1–6`
- Set the `Remove` column to `Remove`

**Result**: Only the listed related products will be removed from that relation type.
