The result of any Salesforce B2C Commerce import operations (via a pipelet) is represented by the Status output property. The pipelet returns to the error connector if a process error occurs when executing the import. A process error prevents or interrupts the basic execution of the import. An example of a process error is when the specified import file doesn't exist on the file system. Client code should consult Status object details to determine if there were any problems importing the individual data within the import file.
