• "Create and Modify" - once the export is complete, the new items will be created and added to the available product list on QuickBooks Online and the existing products will be updated.


• "Create Only" - this method allows creating new items in QuickBooks, but the existing ones will not be updated.


• "Modify Only" - only the existing products will be updated without creating new records.
