Can I bulk load category & supplier details for inventory items? I need to import 2000+ products and want to automate this rather than go into each product individually

Hi userstaff,

 

Yes, you can import inventories in bulk with expense accounts and other details. However, supplier information is not included in this option at this time.

 

You can download the sample file when you click on the Gear icon, and choose Import data. Then, select Products and Services, and click Download a sample file to see the information you can only upload.

 

 

You can also check more details in this article: Import products and services into QuickBooks Online.

 

Feel free to reach back out if you need more help.

Hi - thank you - I am aware of the import details you provide - it is specifically the supplier and category details I need to have included with each product that I am enquiring about.  Specifically as mentioned I need to add to 2000+ products and need to have the supplier and category for each included .  Can you please let me know how to do this, other than going into each product, in the edit section of the products and service list and adding manually.  Thank you

Hi Terrie-A!

 

I understand that you want to include the supplier and category information when importing products to QuickBooks Online. While this option isn't available, you'll want to look for a third-party app that can be integrated into QuickBooks and has the feature you need.

 

Visit our QuickBooks App Store to see all the supported third-party applications.

 

Also, I've included this link for your reference about importing data: Common questions about importing data to QuickBooks Online.

 

Keep your posts coming if you have other questions. Take care!

@Terrie-A 

Consider having an additional app to manage your inventories. QBO only offers limited features to manage them.

Thank you for this - Do you recommend any apps in particular for this task

You should start from this app. They acquired it last year to be part of the family.
