💡 Helpful Tips :

  • You can have 1 Primary ID & up to 39 Secondary IDs for each supplier if required.
  • Primary ID field allows you to enter a group ID for your supplier.
  • Secondary IDs allow you to enter multiple IDs for the same supplier.
  • If you only have a single reference for your supplier, just use Primary ID.
  • All Supplier IDs are visible to your suppliers, so they can assign one whenever they submit a sample to you with a price.
  • Use Reference for ease of identification - example: "60 days Payment"




Step 3:
You can view assigned Supplier IDs in the Supplier ID column in Linesheet
*Supplier ID's are populated by your vendor





  

📔 Note:

Every product in your assortment will carry a Supplier ID. This ID is critical for integration as it helps your internal systems to recognise which internal supplier account needs to be associated with a product when creating a SKU, effectively defining your payment terms for this specific product.
