# ERROR DURING A FILE IMPORT: "LOCATION ALREADY OCCUPIED"

You are trying to import new products into Shippingbo (via the "content" import), or to move a product to another location, but receive the following error message during the import: 

*"400 BAD REQUEST This location is already occupied"*

 

The reason for this error message is that you are trying to add a product to a location that is already occupied and that does **not allow** multiple products.
