Columns: vendor, category, item, unit, par, active — only vendor and item are required. The easiest way to get started is to export an existing list and use it as a template.
category / unit / par columns
category groups items under headings on the order sheet. unit shows next to the item name (e.g. Case). par is the target stock level, shown as a read-only column.
active column
Controls whether the item appears on the order sheet. Set to 1 to include it or 0 to hide it. You can leave this column blank and everything will show up by default.
Import behaviour
Vendors that don't exist are created automatically
Items already on a vendor list are updated (category, unit, par, active)
Merge only adds and updates. Replace also disables anything not in the file and re-orders to match it — you choose at import time. Nothing is ever deleted.
Export
Use ⬇ Export All to download every vendor at once, or expand a vendor and click Export CSV to download just that list. The exported file can be re-imported as-is.
