-As of Geodesic v5.1, the bulk uploader has a new feature, termed "Revolving Inventory Uploads," that allows the creation and maintenance of a set of listings via a cron-refreshable source file. This feature is very powerful, but may adversely affect your site's performance if not used with care. Before creating a Revolving Inventory upload, be sure that you have read the [[bulk_uploader/revolving_inventory|documentation]] and that you understand how to correctly use it. If you leave the "Save this upload as Revolving Inventory?" box **unchecked**, this bulk upload session will not make use of the Revolving Inventory feature.

   - Listing Upgrades - You can select any or all of the available upgrades to attach to every listing in this bulk upload.
   - Revolving Inventory Key Column - This will only appear if you selected to do a Revolving Inventory upload in Step 1. If so, you must select a column that contains a unique value for every listing on your site (not just the current data set). In the case of automobiles, the VIN number is a good choice.
+  - Multi-Part Uploads (Not pictured / New in GeoCore 7.4) - This allows a source file to be broken up into multiple "parts" that are automatically uploaded separately over time. This is particularly useful when adding a large number of listings at once, either to lessen the server impact on the actual upload or to space out the addition of listings to the site and mitigate the sudden appearance of dozens or hundreds of new listings all at once. To activate this ability, simply populate the numerical fields with the maximum number of listings to upload at once and the minimum number of hours to wait between uploads.
