Dext Prepare will automatically pull your Suppliers list from the software your account is integrated with. If you are using Dext Prepare with a non-integrated accounting platform you can populate Dext Prepare with your own suppliers using a .csv import.
- Export your list of suppliers from your accounting software as a .csv file. This format will vary between different softwares but it must include columns for:
Supplier Name
Currency (optional)
Category name (optional)
Supplier Code (optional – must be unique for each supplier) - In Dext Prepare, navigate to the Suppliers List. This is located under the ‘Lists’ section of the sidebar.
- Click Import from CSV:
- Select your file in the popup, and follow the prompts to map Supplier Code, Category, Currency Code, and Supplier Name to the correct columns of the .csv file.
- Once complete, the list of names will populate the Suppliers Lists. Dext Prepare will automatically set Supplier Rules for Suppliers with a mapped Currency and Category.
Note: Any duplicated supplier names that already exist in your Suppliers List will be automatically merged by Dext Prepare.
