Hi Pradeep,

Thanks for your response. 

Sorry I am new to ofbiz. But I am not sure where to define the entity names
and the entity-field names where I want to insert the data(as all the
information like price and others for the product is not stored in only
'Product' entity, I need to insert the data in multiple entities)?

Do I have to specify in XML? Do you have any sample xml file? I want to
insert data for new products 

Also, I see entity "DataImportProduct". What is that for?

Once again thank you for the help.
