Import Vendor-Specific Items

Reading Time: 2 minutes

The Vendor Item import allows users to batch import vendor-specific item information into C2W Inventory using an Excel template.

This is useful when vendors use their own product codes or prices for the items you purchase from them.

Vendor Item records help connect your internal item records with vendor-specific purchasing information.

Verify Imported Customers

After importing, users can verify vendor item information from the related vendor or item record.

Users can also review vendor item information when creating or managing Purchase Orders.

Best Practice

Before importing, check that:

  • VendorName matches an existing vendor
  • ItemName matches an existing item
  • VendorProductCode is entered correctly if used
  • VendorPrice is correct if used
  • Qty is correct if used
  • The Excel file is saved and closed before uploading

This helps prevent import errors and keeps vendor purchasing information accurate.

Tip:

Use Vendor Item import when vendors use different product codes or prices for the items you purchase from them.
