Introduction

You can add suppliers in different ways. The most common way is to upload a csv file, sync it with API over time, and add ad-hoc manually afterwards. You can add by going to Suppliers > navigating to the top right and click add suppliers.
  

​
Adding manually

To add a supplier manually, click on Add suppliers > Add suppliers manually > add the name and country of the supplier. You only need the name and country of the supplier to add them manually. However, you should make sure that the rest of meta data is filled in earlier for easy processing later. To learn more visit the Supplier metadata section.
  

​
Bulk upload via CSV file

You can find the template to upload CSV file by navigating to Add suppliers and clicking the download teamplate. Prepare the csv file and click upload Please make sure that the uploaded CSV must use commas as separators. If a cell contains multiple values, separate each value with a semicolon. Example: Soy beans; Soy oil, to reduce the chance of duplication. To learn more visit the Supplier metadata section. Match columns We will try to map it automatically, but will flag if we were not successful.
  
You should review the data you uploaded before you click Create.
  
After you create, a batch number is then created and you’re navigated straight to the suppliers created in that batch. This batch number can be used in future filters.
